Ramoutar slams 100* in Masters Softball tournament

Canada-based Guyanese Anil Ramoutar slammed a magnificent, unbeaten 100 to spur Canadian Legends to a commanding six-wicket win over Pegasus in the latest round of the 2021 Ontario Masters Softball Cricket Clubs 20-over tournament on Sunday.

Playing at Woburn Collegiate Institute ground in Scarborough, the right-handed Ramoutar hit nine sixes and three fours as Canadian Legends reached 188-4 with two overs to spare in response to Pegasus’ challenging 185-6 (20).
Ramoutar, who also represents Masters Cricket Club in round-arm competition, got good support from Mohan Harihar, who made 35 not out, while opener and former Guyana and West Indies youth batsman Hemnarine Chattergoon contributed 25.
Earlier, Pegasus won the toss and decided to bat first. Ex-Guyana First-Class opener Krishna Arjune cracked a belligerent 48-ball 76 laced with eight sixes and three fours. Veteran batsman Jai Singh supported with 27 and Jito Narine, 21. Nishal Dass grabbed two wickets for five runs from three steady overs. The competition will resume on August 8 with a series of matches.
