– Khan, Chanderpaul and Hemraj grind GCC
The Georgetown Cricket Club (GCC), batting a second time on day one of the Star Party Rental/Trophy Stall Georgetown Cricket Association(GCA) first-division, two-day competition, ended the day on 19 without loss, trailing Everest Cricket Club (ECC) by 123 runs at the GCC Bourda cricket ground, yesterday.
Earlier, GCC won the toss, elected to bat and declared their innings closed on 129 – 9 on the stroke of lunch after one of their players was a no show.
Opener Martin Pestano-Belle (43) was the only batsman to show any grit as first-class leg spinner Amir Khan snatched 5 – 31 from 10.5 overs while Saheed Mohammed supported with 2 – 30 from eight overs to skittle the home side out cheaply.
