First century in Atlantic LNG cricket

Kitwaroo continued his good batting form from the first round, scoring 102 as Clarke Road made 218 for four, with Shane Arjoon contributing 38.

Kitwaroo displayed his all-round ability, taking three wickets for eight runs, to spearhead a Montrose Government rout for a paltry 45 runs. Dennis Nandlal chipped in with two wickets for two runs for Clarke Rochard to complete their first victory in the league. Kitwaroo earned the “Man-of-the-Match” honours for his fine all-round display. Sangre Grande Hindu School recorded their second straight victory in the Super League on Wednesday.

Playing against Rancho Quemado Government at Inshan Ali Park in Preysal, Sangre Grande easily reached their target of 163 run for the loss of five wickets in 31.5 overs. They were paced to their victory with good scores from Brandon Ramdial, who made 40 and Stephen Sooklal, 30. With Rancho Quemado batting first, the prolific Chris Moora, who hit 52 not out in the first round on Monday, top-scored with 78 out of a total of 162. Randy Ramlogan took three wickets for Sangre Grande, with Brandon Bharath and Shaquille Katwaroo lending good support with two wickets each.

Guayaguayare RC also registered their second consecutive victory, handing Diego Martin Boys RC their second loss in the competition. Guayaguayare made 120 in 25 overs, with Akeen Hyndman, 23, Jerome Valentine, 22, and Keron Duncan, 21, among the runs.

In their turn at the crease, Diego Martin were skittled out for 67, with Valentine turning bowler, ending up with four wickets for three runs and earning the “Man-of-the-Match” accolade.

The match between defending champions Rochard Douglas Presbyterian School and Mayaro Government was called off because of a water-logged ground. A decision is to be made on whether the points will be shared. Third round matches in the Super league will be played tomorow. Meanwhile, matches in the Atlantic LNG Inter-School competitions for boys and girls are taking place in all eight education districts in Trinidad and Tobago, with the boys’ quarter finals carded for May 11, and the girls’ quarter-finals on May 16.
