… Peerkhan hits ton for Port Mourant
THANKS to a double-century from Jason Sinclair (258) and a ton from skipper and national middle-order batsman Assad Fudadin (150), Rose Hall Town Gizmos & Gadgets (RHTGG) were able to coast to a massive victory over Skeldon as play in the Berbice zone of the Guyana Cricket Board National three-day tournament continued last Sunday.
Prolific opener Moshin Peerkhan hit a ton for Port Mourant who placed themselves in a strong position to press for an outright victory against Scottsburg United at the Albion Community Development Centre ground.
Playing at the Area ‘H’ ground, Skeldon batted first and scored 84 all out with Sydney Jackman 18 and George Nauth 37 not out being the only batsmen to reach double figures against the bowling of Lloyden Lewis (3-2), Ravi Narine (3-23) and Terrence Madramootoo 2-8 for RHTGG.
In reply, RHTGG rattled up a massive 540 for 5 declared with Sinclair blasting 260 (30×4, 6×6) before he was forced to retire hurt with 30 boundaries and six sixes while Fudadin scored an even 150 (15×4, 4×6) before he was run-out.
The two added 226 for the fifth wicket and along with Lewis’ unbeaten 50, Eon Hooper 30, Dominic Ricky 25 and Lenny Sanichar’s unbeaten 25, RHTGG reached their eventual target, while medium pacer Junior Reid took 4-140 for Skeldon who fared better in their second innings, but were bowled out for 197.
Left-handed batsman Nazim Khan, batting at number four, top-scored with an aggressive 79 (14×4, 1×6),while Junior Reid (35) and Junior Blair (20) offered support against the bowling of Lewis who took 6-49 and Fudadin 2-42, as RHTGG romped to an innings and 251-run victory.
