Dindyal’s brilliant 136 powers GT to consecutive wins

A MAGNIFICENT century from GCC’s Mavindra Dindyal and fifties from Johnathon Van Lange and Zachary Jodha powered Georgetown to consecutive victories in Guyana Floodlight Softball Cricket Association (GFSCA) sponsored DCB U-19 Inter-Association Super50 Tournament.
Georgetown registered the tournament’s highest total; amassing a massive 403-5 before dismissing Upper Demerara for 160 in 33 overs.

This was after they beat West Demerara by 123 runs in the opening round in West Demerara to expose the weakness of the five competing teams.
Batting first, GT’s Ryan Latif and Romeo Deonarine, who made 70 in the first match, carried the score to 45 on a fast outfield with the classy Deonarine doing the bulk of the scoring before Latif (12) departed.

West Indies U-19 batter Mavindra Dindyal joined the well set Deonarain and the pair flayed the hapless Upper Demerara bowling attack as all parts of QC sward in sweltering heat.
Just after posting their century partnership, Deonarine fell to Rishi Seodat. His 83 lasted 95 balls and included 11 boundaries to leave the score on 162-2.
The accomplished Dindyal and Skipper Alive Mohabir continued to score freely in ideal batting condition and added 79 for a third wicket before Joshua Persaud sent back Mohabir at 239-3.

Dindyal kept going and soon reached his ton along with Jodha who returned to form 58 with seven fours and two sixes.
However, Persaud struck again at 270-4 when he dismissed Deonarain whose 136 was aided by 16 fours and six sixes and lasted just 76 balls.

Persaud struck again when he dismissed Jodha at 373-5 but the powerfully built Van Lange, launched a murderous attack with balls flying everywhere.
Van Lange clobbered four fours and six sixes in shot-filled undefeated 73 which lasted just 34 balls.
Persaud finished with 3-70 from 6.4 overs for Upper Demerara whose opener Gabriel Rookhum continued to impress with a fluent 40 with eight fours and two sixes for just 22 balls.

But only Renaldo Grenville, unbeaten on 28, reached 15 as leg-spinner Riyad Latif had 3-27 and pacer Shane Prince took 2-23.
At Lusignan on Saturday, East Coast fell for 176 with Sasenarine Harricharran scoring 42, Moin Persaud (20), Nicholas Shiopersaud (18) reaching 15.
Krsna Singh (3-41), Roupil Rajaraw (3-31) combined to six wickets while Darwin Larose and Zahib Mohamed took two wickets each.

East Bank were then bowled out for 91 in 31.4 overs, despite 42 from opener Deonarine Dindyal.
Arun Gainda had 5-16 while Neeram Bani took 3-24 to help dismiss East Bank below 100.
