Earlier this month, the Regional Police Division No. 2 had the pleasure of launching their cricket team at the Walton Hall Sports Club Ground, Essequibo Coast.
The team will operate under the leadership of Assistant Superintendent of Police (ASP) R Ramnarine, Regional Police Division No. 2 sports representative. Ramnarine will have double duties, also acting as the Captain of the team. He is deputised by Vice Captain Sergeant T Roberts.
The team is comprised of fifteen other ranks and four rural constables.
Upon the launch and in keeping with the spirit of sports, the ranks were advised to play the sport in keeping with the spirit of the game, which allows police ranks to create more cohesive friendships.
A T-20 hardball cricket match followed on the heels of the launch, featuring Regional Police Division No. 2 and Walton Hall Sports Club, where the officer took first strike and made 199 runs for nine off the allotted 20 overs.
In reply, Walton Hall Sports Club was subsequently bowled out for 175 in 19.4 overs.
Another fixture involving the Regional Police Division No. 2 team saw them getting the better of the Mairie Sports Club in Wakapoa Mission in a friendly T20 encounter.
Mairie Mission Wakapoa chose to bat first, going on to accumulate 145 runs, all out, off 16.5 overs. On the other hand, the Regional Police Division No. 2 Sports Club responded with 146 for seven in 16.4 overs. As such, sealing a three-wicket victory.
