When the Elizabeth Styles Under-19, 50-Overs cricket competition in Berbice continued
recently, defending champions Albion Community Centre were propelled into the quarterfinals on the back of scintillating innings from Balchand Baldeo and Matthew Hardyal.
Playing in their final Zone C match, Albion walloped Sand Reef by 279 runs to win the Zone. Guyana Under-19 all-rounder Balchand Baldeo slammed 203 (20×4 6×6), the competitions highest score to date.
