New Amsterdam–Canje powerhouse teams Young Warriors and Tucber Park will lock horns this weekend in the Berbice Cricket Board (BCB) two-day First Division tournament.
The much-anticipated match will be played at the Young Warriors ground in East Canje. Both teams head into this weekend’s fixture in good form. Young Warriors will rely on Suresh Dhanai, who has been in excellent all-round form, consistently taking wickets and scoring important runs.
Amir Khan is fresh off a century, while Trevon Stanislaus is the danger man for Young Warriors. He has shown his class in previous matches with his wicket-taking ability as a left-arm spinner.
Meanwhile, Tucber Park’s batsmen are in blazing form, with Zeynul Ramsammy, Malcolm Mickle, and Tomani Caesar all scoring centuries in earlier rounds. Ramsammy will be the prize scalp, as he inches closer to a senior Four-Day or Super50 debut for the Guyana Harpy Eagles. In addition to his batting, Ramsammy has also been effective with the ball.
Kwesi Mickle is the utility man for Tucber Park, offering valuable off-spin and consistent lower-order batting. Guyana Harpy Eagles fast bowler Nial Smith is also expected to play for Tucber Park, eager to gain match practice ahead of a packed regional season starting next month.
In addition to the Young Warriors v Tucber Park match, Blairmont and West Berbice will meet at the Blairmont Community Centre Ground. Both West Berbice teams have been underperforming this season, and this match will be a battle for bragging rights to see who emerges as the best side from the west.
Seon Glasgow and Nigel Deodat will be key players for Blairmont, while Leon Andrews and Shelton Ramsay will lead the charge for West Berbice.
Both matches are expected to commence at 09:30h local time.
