LED by incisive bowling from pacer, Bruce Vincent, and left-arm spinner, Aryan Persaud, Essequibo beat the Select 1X by 96 runs in the penultimate round of the Guyana Cricket Board (GCB), Government of Guyana (GOG) and Ministry of Culture, Youth and Sport (MCYS) 50-over U-19 tournament at the Everest ground yesterday.

Essequibo made 148 all out in a game reduced to 40 overs due to a late start caused by overnight and morning showers. Rajendra Ramballi (19) and Shaahid Viera (15) put together 38 for the first wicket before Ronaldo Schouten (24) and Quincy Sampson (15) added 25 for the seventh wicket.

Shaazif Mohammed (18) and Joash Charles, who made an unbeaten 17, all got starts in a team effort.

Rashad Gaffur 2-14, Matthew Pottaya 2-37 and Nityanand Mathura 2-10, got wickets for the Select X1 who were buddled out for 56 in 25 overs as only Kevin Kisten, who hit four fours in 19, reached double figures.

Vincent took 5-20 while Persaud bagged 4-1 from 5.2 overs.

Essequibo will face Demerara in the final round tomorrow at Bourda.
