Everest Cricket Club Master’s Team wrapped up their short tour of Suriname with a close four-run win over Snellen Park on Sunday in Paramaribo in the second and final t20 match.
Snellen Park won the toss and like good hosts, invited Everest masters to take first strike on a pitch that proved to be difficult for stroke making.
After grafting, Everest Masters reached 79 for 8 from their 20 overs with Saheed Mohamed battling for 28 not out while Imtiaz Sadik 13 and Rakesh Gangaram 10 were the only other batsmen reaching double figures.

Bharat Dilshan was on target snaring 3 for 20 from 4 overs for the hosts who could not handle the pitch nor the opposition bowling.
In the final over, Snellen Park fell four runs short when they were bundled out for 75 in 19.5 overs. Kamo Hardat top scored with 23 while Mohamed came back with the ball to collect 2 for 12.
Once again, he found admirable support from Gangaram (2 for 18) and Imtiaz Sadik (2 for 16).
Mohamed was named man of the match.
Everest Masters were presented with two victory trophies compliments of the Suriname Cricket Board.
The visitors won the first T20 match on Saturday easily by nine wickets as they are in preparation mode ahead of their tour to Holland later in 2018.
