RIDING on a high after their morale-boosting win over Enmore Masters in early June, the Guyana Media XI will take on Gas Masters in a feature T20 match this afternoon at the Everest Cricket Club ground. 

Action is set to bowl off at 13:00hrs and a keen contest is expected as the Media boys look to continue their winning ways, having been unbeaten after two games.
The second innings of the match against the Georgetown Cricket Umpires and Scorers Association was washed out at the Georgetown Cricket Club ground on Independence Day, with the rematch still in the pipelines.
The Calvin Roberts-led Media unit have been in training over the past week at the Police Sports Club ground, Eve Leary, and according to the skipper, confidence is high in the camp as they hunt another win.
The Media workers had physical sessions, as well as batting, bowling and fielding drills and are keen on executing their plans in this afternoon’s contest, with the aim of recording another victory.
Roberts, who was devastating against Enmore with a three-wicket burst, will lead the bowling attack with support from seamers Ishaka Jackman, Kizan Brumell and Chad Ramsaroop, left-arm spinner Ravi Persaud and spinner Imran Khan among others.
The batting will hinge upon openers John Ramsingh and Rajiv Bisnauth, Persaud, wicketkeeper Daniel Singh, Avenash Ramzan, Jackman, Khan, Clifton Ross, Esaun Griffith and hard-hitting Orlando Charles.
Gas Masters will be led by Nadir Baksh, called ‘Gas’ who is the head groundsman at the venue for today’s highly anticipated contest. Admission is free.
