THREE games in and opener Uniss Yusuf is still to be dismissed on his Toronto sojourn with GTA Storm Over-50 team.
Already with unbeaten scores of 94 and 102, Yusuf lived a charm life last Saturday when the Ontario Masters Softball Cricket Clubs (OMSCC) 2024 tournament continued at the Ashtonbee Reservoir in brilliant sunshine.
At the end of the allotted 20 overs, the consistent opener was still there on 89 not out, as the defending champions piled up a huge 260 for two.
Yusuf, however, had to share the spotlight with skipper and former Guyana Under-19 player, Troy Gobin, who followed up his 94 from the previous week with a flambouyant 102 before retiring.
Opponents Remax All Stars huffed and puffed their way to 87 for five when their 20 overs expired, going down by a huge margin of 163 runs.
The victory marked the third consecutive for GTA Storm, who earlier lost to Ramblers Rampage, their only defeat of the 2024 season.

Gobin, who clobbered five fours and 11 sixes, shared an opening stand of 180 in 12 overs with Yusuf, whose knock was decorated with two fours and nine sixes.
After the former Malteenoes player, who is fondly referred to as “Mr. Cricket” among his team members, opted to retire, there was no respite for the hapless Remax All Stars bowlers, as Ian “Russian” Baldeo joined in the assault, adding a further 66 in seven overs with Yusuf before he departed for 49, spiced with two fours and five sixes.
In reply, Remax All Stars struggled throughout with Darmo Gangadin (19), Rupert Takhurdin (18 not out), and Shiv Misir (13) managing double figures. There was one wicket, each, for Gavin Glasgow, Jerry Brittania, Orlando Deonarine, Nirad Lall, and Rudy Bhopaul.
