On Friday, both sides will do battle from 09:00h in what promises to be a keenly contested fixture. Berbice and a National U-17 team have battled and clawed their way through some stiff competition in order to reach the finals. Berbice will rely on their in-form players, the likes of Alex Algoo, Junior Sinclair, Kelvin Umrao, Kevlon Anderson and Kevin Sinclair, among others.
National youth and Windies’ ex U-16 skipper, opener Sachin Singh, and his team of young players have been showing glimpses of something big coming in the near future. The U-17s’ will want much from Singh, Nigel Persaud, Mavendra Dindyal, Andre Seepersaud, Seon Glasgow and Marvin Prashad — all of whom have been making starts, and are capable of winning matches for their team.
