THE New Windsor Sports Club got past Zeeburg Sports Club, one of the strongest cricket teams in West Demerara, when they competed in the Beacon Café/WDCA 50-over competition last Sunday on a spin friendly surface at the Wales Community Development Centre ground.
Zeeburg won the toss and opted to bat, but they could not get on top of the bowling and fell for 80 in 16.3 overs.
- Henry finished with 4-19 from 3.3 overs, while Mahase Persaud supported with 3-13 from three overs and R. Thakur 2-19 also from three overs.
Only Ushardeva Balgobin with 22 and Andre Seepersaud with 10 reached double figures for Zeeburg.
In reply, former Guyana U-19 cricketer Malcolm Hubbard led a bowling charge to help topple the New Windsor top order, but captain Vishnu Sew showed fight and brought his team home in 22.2 overs.
Sew scored 32 runs, while Shivkumar Thakur added 15 and Persaud 10.
Hubbard finished with 4-31 from 10 overs, while Gomes and Seepersaud finished with one wicket each.
