Smith blazes 94 for Valley Boys in Central T20

After winning the toss, Valley Boys posted a competitive total of 153 runs for the loss of five wickets from their allotted 20 overs.

Smith played possibly the best innings of the tournament in front of the eager crowd who were deprived of cricket for two days due to Tropical Storm Bret.

Smith’s stroke-filled innings was the backbone of the total and it came off 63 balls including seven fours and seven sixes.

The right-handed Smith shared in a 77-run partnership with the experienced and former Trinidad and Tobago Red Force player Sanjiv Gooljar who scored 20 runs from 22 balls. West Indies Under-19 player Kirstan Kallicharan was the best bowler with 2/21.

The confident All Stars B team who were unbeaten in their two previous matches had a horrid start to their run chase when Kris Goomansingh had Amir Jangooo brilliantly caught in the gully by Gooljar for 10 runs. After slipping to three wickets down for 18 runs, Vikash Mohan gave them some hope with a positive knock of 34 runs. Also contributing with the bat was Nathaniel Mc David (32 runs not out) but they could only muster 133 runs for eight wickets when their 20 overs expired. Goomansingh was the best bowler with figures of 2/20.
