The Guyana U17 cricket team finished 3rd in both the Cricket West Indies Rising Stars Men’s Under-17 2-day tournament and in the 50-overs Championships which were wrapped up in Trinidad and Tobago on Monday.
The Guyana team secured a win, a draw, and a no-result for an accumulated 39 points in the 2-day tournament, which was won by Barbados with 69.2 points. Windward Islands placed second with 62.8 points.

The Leeward Islands U17s won the toss and opted to field first, and Guyana posted 171 all out in 40.5 overs. Opening batsman Vikash Wilkinson led the charge for the Guyanese with 34 from 51 deliveries, while Rampersaud Ramnauth and Romario Ramdeholl contributed 31 and 23 runs respectively to the total.
Israel Morton claimed 3-44 from 10 overs for the Leeward Islands, with Jaheem Kevaughn Clarke and Micah McKenzie each taking two wickets.
The Leeward Islands got to 35-1 before the heavens opened, and the ensuing showers forced a premature end to the game with Guyana’s Emmanuel Lewis claiming the only Leeward Islands wicket to fall in figures of 1-4 from 2 overs.
