All-round Ricardo Adams is the leading wicket-taker following the end of the preliminary rounds.
Leading run-scorer to date, Adrian Sukwah copped the MVP a few rounds ago for his dazzling 97.
Berbice Piranhas batsman Adrian Sukwah leads the run-getters with 180 runs for the number one spot, trailed by Zeynul Ramsammy with 162 runs.
Spots three, four and five sit trickily with Essequibo Jaguars veteran all-rounder Rajiv Ivan (3rd) and national youth player Demerara Hawks Shamar Yearwood (4th) both tied on 148 runs apiece.
Essequibo Anaconda’s opener Kevon Boodie rounds off the top five with 147 runs and could easily shoot his way up the ranks by the end of the tournament.
For the bowlers, Essequibo Jaguars all-rounder Ricardo Adams sits on 13 scalps, followed by his Cinderella County mate, Anaconda’s skipper Anthony Adams who trails closely with 12 victims, leaving the tussle for the number one spot, in a classy contest between the two.
Another Anaconda player, all-rounder Quentin Sampson, occupies 3rd place with 8 wickets, while Ivan intensifies his credentials as a utility player by positioning himself in 4th place with 8 wickets.
Returning pacer Clinton Pestano could easily rocket past his four position holders, as his 7 wickets in the 5th spot will worry the other leading operators.
