At MYO, the game between the host and Gandhi Youth Organisation (GYO) was abandoned due to rain. Batting first, GYO were 185-4 in 32 overs when play was halted at 13:05hrs. Chris Deonarine was unbeaten on 82 while Eon Hooper made 35. A reliable source informed Kaieteur sport that when the rain came, the pitch was exposed for too long to the showers (before the covers came on) which was the primary reason that the game was called off.
