A captain’s knock from Man-of-the-Match Anthony Adams ensured Essequibo remained favourites for the Guyana Cricket Board 50-overs Franchise League title after thrashing Upper Corentyne by 123 runs and earning another bonus point on a humid Monday at the Port Mourant Cricket Club ground, East Berbice.
Upper Corentyne won the toss and decided to put Essequibo in to bat and they duly reached 236-9 from their allotted overs.
Upper Corentyne, in reply, only managed 113 in 32.2 overs at the venue that has been without power for over three months.
