GCC beat the touring Munroe Road Cricket club U-19 team of Trinidad & Tobago by 18 runs at Bourda yesterday in the first game of their 10-day tour to Guyana.
On a day blessed with glorious sunshine GCC were bowled out for 128 in 42.1 overs with Trilok Nanan hitting three fours in 25.
Rayad Latif 21, Zakhari Jodhu 15, and Josh Charles 12, reaching double figures.
Fifteen-year-old Ramesar grabbed 5-26 and got support from Aaron Basant and Thomas Walsh who took two wickets each for the visiting team who were dismissed for 110 in 36 overs.
The left-handed Basant, the son of former T&T U-19 batter Anil Barlo Basant, returned with the bat to reach the boundary twice and clear it once.
But only him and Ishant Roopnarine with 16 reached double figures.
Krsna Singh produced a Man-of-Match performance 4-20.
