DCC closing in on season-opening win 

Defending champions, the Demerara Cricket Club (DCC) is scenting a season-opening win in the 2019 GISE, Star Party Rental and Trophy Stall first division two-day competition against the Guyana Defence Force (GDF). 

The day began with the host DCC winning the toss and inserting GDF, who were bundled out for 110. Randy Lindore led the way with an innings of 69 inclusive of 11 fours and two sixes, adding some respectability to the total. 

The army men were rocked by West Indies under – 19 spinner Ashmead Nedd, who grabbed 5-47, while his fellow left-arm spinner Totaram Bishun (3-22) played the supporting role.
