The victorious West Coast Warriors

Batting first, the hosts struggled to record 56 for 6 at the end of their allotted 10 overs; with Dexter George, batting at # 7, saving the hosts further embarrassment by contributing 19 runs from 13 balls.
At one stage, the Future Youths looked like their score did not have a future beyond 40 runs; as one Azaad, (only name given) bowling for the West Coast Warriors, was almost unplayable, returning figures of three wickets for five runs from his two overs.
When the Warriors replied, they made the 10-over affair look like a walk in the park, as they jetted to 54 for one in five overs. Vickash Dhaniram top scored with 32, and Ameer Singh contributed 18 not out.
In the first match of the day, West Coast Warriors beat Zeeburg with the last ball of the match. Zeeburg batted first, and scored 100 for three in their 10 overs. Malcolm Hubbard scored 16 from four balls; Ershad Ally top-scored with 41, which included one six and 3 fours; and Yutesh Avi Dhanpaul supported with 17 runs.
The Warriors, responding, were never really in the hunt; but Cornelius Jaisingh, who came in at number six, stroked a breezy 37 from 14 balls, and Mandolall Doodnarine and Azaad Azees each contributed 12 runs to see their team to victory.
Malcolm Hubbard was excellent with the ball for Zeeburg, grabbing 4 for 10 from his two overs.
Meten-Meer-Zorg Future Youths beat Mc Gill Sports Club in their encounter. Batting first, MMZ registered a challenging 108 for two in their 10 overs. Sheldon Alexander, who scored 44 from 16 deliveries, was supported by Adrian Johnson with 12.
Mc Gill Sports Club were bowled out for 74 runs scored in 9.4 overs. The veteran Sudesh Persaud was the only one able to offer any resistance, scoring 19 runs from 17 deliveries.
The MMZ bowling was led by Dexter George, with 2 wickets for 16 runs, and Sheldon Alexander, with 2 wickets for 19 runs.
Vickash Dhaniram was named ‘man of the match’ in the finals. Trophies for the winner and runner-up teams were sponsored by Supreme Petroleum, and the ‘man of the match’ trophy was sponsored by Trophy Stall.
