The home team, Trinidad and Tobago, defeated Guyana’s Under-19 women as the defending champions suffered another defeat in the ongoing Cricket West Indies (CWI) Rising Stars Women’s Under-19 Championship at the National Cricket Centre.
Guyana Under-19s Women won the toss, elected to bat first, and produced an underwhelming performance with bat in hand. Tiea Isaacs contributed 12 from 34 balls, while Latoya Williams top scored with 16 from 54 deliveries. Those were the only two batters to reach double figures as Guyana were bowled out for 70 in 26.4 overs. Brianna Harricharan’s figures of 5 for 20 in her 6 overs were the catalyst for the Guyana batters’ downfall.
Danellie Manns had figures of 4 for 18
The bowlers for Guyana didn’t give up easily, though, as they made the game competitive. Danellie Manns was impressive in her spell of 4 for 18. Rebekah Cleto also supported her, as she had figures of 2 for 17. Kristina Naipaul, 15, top-scored for her team as Trinidad finished the game after 22 overs with a score of 71 for 8.
