Sukwah slams century in BCB Ivan Madray T20 1st Division

Adrian Sukhwa blasted an unbeaten 157 to lead Albion Community Centre to a massive 196 run victory over Police in the Berbice Cricket Board (BCB) Ivan Madray T20 First Division tournament. Played at the weekend at the Albion Community Centre Ground, the 26-year-old Sukwah, who earlier this year represented the Guyana Rainforest Rangers in the West Indies T20 Breakout League, struck 10 fours and an equal amount of sixes.

Sukwah shared a 144-run opening stand with former national wicketkeeper/batsman Anthony Bramble, who smashed a belligerent 76, a knock which was decorated with seven fours and six maximums to propel Albion to a massive 307 for 1 in their allotted 20 overs.
With the experienced Bramble having been dismissed in the 10th over, Sukhwa was joined by Kandasammmy Surujnarine and the pair continued the onslaught, scoring another 163 runs in the remaining 10 over, with Surujnarine also not out on 49.
Abel Doris was the lone wicket taker with 1 for 33, bowling for the Berbice lawmen.
Police in reply, were dismissed for 111 in 14.4 over with Kemroy Dyal making 44, Andy Grant 21 and Paul Fraser 19.
The talented Kelvin Umroa led with the ball for Albion, who had earlier took first strike after winning the toss, bagging 5 for 34 with his left-arm-spin and was backed up by off-spinner Ari Afrizal Kadir with 2 for 25. There was also a wicket each for left-arm-spinner Gouraf Ramesh and off-spinner Agraz Budhoo for 25 and 27 respectively.
Albion, the defending champions, will now clash with Rose Hall Town, in a much anticipated semi-final clash shortly.
Young Warriors and Tucber Park will battle in the other semi-final. In the other fixtures at the weekend, Young Warriors and Rose Hall Town also recorded wins in their respective matches.
