With 13 matches (semi-finals and final included) remaining in the Regional Super50 Tournament, the Guyana Jaguars are comfortably poised at the top of the table with 25 points in six matches, being victorious on five occasions with only one match lost.
Leading the batting chart with the most runs, Canada’s Navneet Dhaliwal has 271 runs in six innings with Nicholas Pooran in second position, scoring 258 runs in five innings with a staggering average of 51.60.
Seasoned Guyanese all-rounder Christopher Barnwell has been the shining light for the Jaguars scoring 256 runs at an outstanding average of 64. His highest score was the unbeaten 99. Jonathan Carter is fourth on the list with 243 runs, followed by Jamaican duo Jermaine Blackwood (241) and John Campbell (232).
Dependable Jaguars all-rounder Raymon Reifer (217) and Guyanese opener Trevon Griffith (207) are the other top batsmen in the Super50. There are five centuries in the Super50 thus far: Chris Gayle (122); Devon Smith (132); Chanderpaul Hemraj (103); Jermaine Blackwood (100) and Marlon Samuels (103).
Nicholas Pooran and Christopher Barnwell have the most sixes in the tournament with 11 and 10 respectively.
Surprisingly, Canadian left arm bowler Galkandage Don Romesh Eranga leads the bowling charts with 17 wickets to his name with his best bowling figures being 6-21 at an excellent economy rate of 4.38.
Larry Edwards has 13 wickets while the consistent Jaguars off-spinner, Ramaal Lewis has 12 wickets at an average of 15.16 with an economy rate of 3.91. Veteran left-arm Jamaican spinner Nikita Miller, along with Guyanese pace ace Clinton Pestano, has 11 wickets each.
