As play continued in the West Demerara Cricket Association (WDCA) Jits & Neelam-sponsored 40-over cricket competition, national players Akshaya Persaud and Richie Looknauth played starring roles with the bat as they led Cornelia Ida Cricket Club (CICC) to a 10-wicket thrashing of Wales at the Meten-Meer-Zorg Community Ground.
Wales won the toss and elected to bat after rain reduced the game to 30 overs. Their decision ended in them being bowled out for 107 in 20.4 overs, with only Keevin Lindo showing some fight with 23 not out.
Bowling for CICC, Harrinarine Bissoondyal took 2/15 in six overs, while Safeek Deonarine captured 2/24 in his five overs.
