Saheed Mohamed claimed 4-8; Kamesh Yadram had 3-24 while skipper Hafeez Ali also picked up two wickets.
Rockaway All stars responded with 155-2 in 18 overs. Bhaskar Yadram stroked 55 to earn the man-of-the-match award, while Chanderpaul Hemraj made 54. The pair added 97 for the opening stand to put their team on course. After they both retired, David Latchaya was run out for seven while Kamesh Yadram went for 10. Avenash Poonsammy 10 not out and T. Andrews with eight then saw Rockaway All stars home. Drakes had one wicket.
