ROSE HALL TOWN Bakewell second division team won their fourth consecutive game in the Berbice Cricket Board/Raffik and Son Construction 20 overs tournament when they defeated Yakasari Cricket Club of Black Bush Polder, by seven wickets at the Area ‘H’ ground. In a match reduced to 15 overs-a-side due to extra moisture on the pitch, RHT Bakewell won the toss and invited the visitors to take first strike, restricting them to 90 for 9 in the process.

Rajesh Lalu muscled his way to a topscore of 41 with four massive sixes and he received support from Churaman Ayana who made 20 and Naipaul Ayana 15.
Bowling for RHT Bakewell, off-spinner Khemraj Mahadeo continued his impressive season with 3 for 9, while left-arm West Indies female pacer Erva Giddings nabbed 2 for 12 and veteran left-arm spinner R. Lewis 2 for 28 in support to Mahadeo.
Needing to score 91 to continue their unbeaten run in the tournament so far, RHT Bakewell reached 93 for 3 off 11.3 overs with Mahadeo returning with the bat to score an even 50 (5×6, 2×4) while Vishal Crandon clipped in with 18.
Azam Khan (5) and Jason Anderson (6) were unbeaten when victory was achieved after national Under-17 player Brandon Prashad fell cheaply for 7. RHT Bakewell now look to transform that form into the BCB/New Building Society 40 overs tournament which commences this weekend.
