MYO register 10-wicket win despite Enmore’s century

THE Muslim Youth Organisation (MYO) registered a 10-wicket win at home yesterday despite a century from captain of Ace Warriors, Rawl Enmore, on the final day of their clash in the Noble House Seafoods Second-Division two-day cricket competition.

On Saturday, the home team had raced to a 130-run lead, but Enmore, who batted well in the second innings, had kept his team in the game. On Sunday morning, the skipper continued his dominance, but he had little support. With his stroke play, the team did add 65 extra runs, which forced MYO to bat again—but that target was reached in quick time without the loss of a wicket.

Scores in the game: Ace Warriors 89 all out in 23 overs and 162-9 in 28 overs; MYO 219 all out in 39.1 overs and 34-0 in six overs.

On Saturday, MYO’s teenagers, Joshua Gardner and Bryion Bowen had combined for all 10 Ace Warriors first innings wickets. Gardner, with his off-spin, captured a match-high 6-36, while pacer Bowen took 4-33 from eight overs to restrict the visiting side under three figures.
MYO, in reply, were led by Skipper Khemraj Ramdeen, who scored an aggressive 59

(12x4s).
Although the home team were looking to finish the match early, Enmore, who led from the front in the second innings, continued from his 60 not out at the close of play on Saturday to score Ace Warrior’s first century this season. Enmore’s 109 included 14 fours and five sixes. He, however, lost his wicket to opening pacer Anthony King, who grabbed three of the four wickets that fell yesterday (one of the Ace Warriors’ batsmen did not turn up). Except for Enmore, only E. Persaud with 10 managed to reach double figures.

In total, King finished with 4-32 from seven overs, while Shaffik Ishmael finished with 4-35 from seven overs.
When MYO batted a second time, Rudolph Singh scored 11 not out and Chris Ramdeen 16 not out.
