AFTER several weeks of exciting action, despite the inclement weather, the curtain will come down on the 2014 East Bank Demerara Cricket Association/Goodwood Racing Service 40 overs cricket competition tomorrow at the Bayroc ground in Linden between Bayroc Sports Club and Laluni Sports Club. Fourteen teams started the competition which was badly affected by the inclement weather last year, resulting in the late finish of the signature tournament for cricket on the East Bank of Demerara.

After a low-scoring semi-final at the Bayroc ground, the home team squeezed past North Soesdyke Sports Club by four wickets while Laluni Sports Club made full use of home advantage to beat Ruimveldt Sports Club in a hard-fought match.
Laluni Sports Club’s victory by four wickets set up the much-anticipated final against the confident Bayroc Sports Club in the mining town tomorrow, with the first ball set to be bowled at 11:00hrs.
After the match, which will be officiated by Zaheer Mohammed and Flemroy Lambert, members and other executives of the EBDCA and representatives of Goodwood Racing Service will be on hand for the presentation of prizes.
The winning team will take home some spectacular silverware and $20 000, the losing finalists will walk away with $15 000 and a trophy, while the man-of-the-match in the final will collect a trophy and $5 000 for his efforts.
