THE Muslim Youth Organisation (MYO) will look to win again after their 388-run victory against the Malteenoes Sports Club (MSC) when they meet Demerara Cricket Club (DCC) at home today in one of two games of the GCA/Friends of Cricket Hundred Overs’ U-17 Tournament scheduled for this weekend.

The other game is Transports Sports Club vs Bel Air RUBiS Cricket Club at Malteenoes Sports Club ground.

In their game last weekend at home, MYO were sent in to bat by a depleted Malteenoes team and rushed to 437 before they were bowled out in 49.1 overs. Middle-order batsman Abdul Ramsammy led the charge with seven fours and nine sixes in 78 balls, during his innings of 112 runs.

Anthony Williams and Tomani Caesar had led the team off to a blistering 119 first-wicket start. Both batsmen took advantage of the depleted Malteenoes fielding side to score half-centuries.

Williams stuck six fours and four sixes in his 58, while Caesar, who finished with the exact score, struck six fours and two sixes in his innings.

Three batsmen reached their 40s, including Zeynul Ramsammy, who hit five fours in his 49, Romel Retimiah who belted four fours and an equal number of sixes in a score of 40, and Krisna Singh who hit six fours and two sixes in a score of 48 towards the end.

Wayne McPherson, who took the wicket of the century-maker, led the visitors with three wickets.

POOR BATTING
Isai Thorne, who grabbed six wickets for 27 runs from 4.4 overs, routed Malteenoes. Two batsmen reached 12, while the majority lost their wickets without adding to the score.

Marlon Boele supported with three wickets for four runs from two overs.
