Guyana Harpy Eagles 2nd 4-Day practice match…
Kaieteur Sports- The Guyana Harpy Eagles wrapped up their final four-day practice match at Providence, following a few days of intense cricket with final squad selection looming.
The duo of Junior Sinclair and Ronaldo Alimohamed broke the backs of the Kemol Savory XI, with a pair of centuries which took Nial Smith XI to 472 in the first innings.
All-rounder Junior Sinclair struck a brilliant century with a few scalps under his belt to finish as the MVP of the final Guyana Harpy Eagles 4-Day practice match at Providence.
Savory scored a vital 76* alongside Zeynul Ramsammy (75) which took their XI to 319 in reply. However, some collective bowling from the likes of Sinclair and Veerasammy Permaul enabled the Smith XI to add to their lead.
A fighting pair of fifties from opener Rampertab Ramnauth (72) and Ushardeva Balgobin (76) bought some time for their team along with Johnny Van Lange who struck a useful 45.
Permaul then entered his bag of tricks to capture 4-48 with help from Sinclair who chipped in with two more wickets to go along with his 1st innings 125.
Only Raymond Perez (37), Richie Looknauth (20) and Shamar Yearwood (19) put up a fight for the Savory XI during the second innings, which ended on 125-7 when the draw was declared yesterday afternoon.
Players will now look to selectors who will likely name the full Harpy Eagles squad ahead of the January 29 start to the Tournament, which gets underway with the defending champs Guyana facing Barbados at the Guyana National Stadium, Providence.
