Anna Regina readies for floodlit climax as Essequibo Zone reaches Lotto/Let’sBet T10 showdown

The stage is set for a floodlit spectacle at the Anna Regina Stadium on Sunday, August 23, as the Essequibo Zone of the Lotto/Let’sBet One Guyana T10 Tapeball Blast reaches its grandstand climax.
The high-octane action bowls off at 14:30h with back-to-back semi-finals, paving the way for the marquee zonal final at 20:00h to determine who takes home the Essequibo crown.
There is plenty on the line for the local outfits beyond regional bragging rights. Shawn’s Mini Mart has put up a hefty GY$500,000 winner’s purse, with Jaigobin Hotel backing the leg with a GY$200,000 runner-up cheque, and Scoop Ride Inc. ensuring losing quarter-finalists walk away with GY$25,000.
Crucially, the Essequibo champion earns a ticket to the National Grand Finale, joining already-qualified heavyweights Grillmaster and Mahdia.

Adding further spice to the evening is a fast-and-furious six-over exhibition sprint at 18:30h between Trophy Stall Jaguars and Trophy Stall Eagles.
Otis Roberts skippers a Jaguars lineup featuring glovesman Marcanthony Obermuller alongside Ravid Fredericks, Tyrese Stephney, Shahab Takram, Joash Inniss, Yovesh Bridgemohan, Demarcus Thomas, Shahid Khan, Shazzief Mohammed, Ijtihad Kadir, and Emmanuel Parris.
Standing in their way are Jathniel Nurse’s Eagles, anchored by wicketkeeper Mark Daniels and packed with punch through Darrius Pearson, Rajendra Ramballi, Mark Campbelle, Naveed Fredericks, Emmanuel Jhablall, Shivesh Bridgemohan, Dennis Crossman, Daniel Dass, Renny Persaud, and Orrin Gibson.
Once Sunday’s drama wraps up, the tournament will hit the pause button to clear the stage for the closing stretch of the Caribbean Premier League. The tapeball circuit resumes on September 26 for the Georgetown/East Coast Demerara Zone, before all roads lead back to Anna Regina for the national showdown on October 11.
