(CMC) – A man-of-the-match performance with both ball and bat from Rahkeem Cornwall, helped the Leeward Islands Hurricanes to a six-wicket victory over the Combined Campuses and Colleges at the Queens Park Oval, as the round-robin phase of the CG United Super 50 Cup came to an end on Sunday.

Cornwall first did the demolition job with the ball, bagging six wickets for 20 runs to help restrict the CCC to 151 all out in 36 overs. Jonathan Drakes led the resistance for the College men, scoring 48 and Shaqkere  Parris getting 38.

Cornwall, batting at number six, then hit a blistering, unbeaten 84 from just 39 balls to guide the Hurricanes over the line at 154 for six in just 19.4 overs. Seamer Akeem Jordan put in a decent effort with the ball, bagging five wickets for 33 runs.

The win was the Hurricanes’ fourth of the campaign, pushing them to 51 points and third place in the standings, two points behind the Jamaica Scorpions whom they will face in semi-final two on Thursday at the Brian Lara Academy.

The first semi-final will see leaders Trinidad & Tobago Red Force (63 pts) squaring off with fourth-placed Barbados Pride (46 pts) on Wednesday, also at the Brian Lara Cricket Academy.

Over at the Sir Frank Worrell Ground in St. Augustine, the match between the West Indies Academy and the Windward Islands Volcanoes ended in a no-result due to rain. The Volcanoes, batting first, posted 278 for five with Sunil Ambris scoring an unbeaten 70. He got good support from Jeremy Solozano who made 55 and Shadrack Descarte 52.

The Academy team reached 69 without loss when heavy, persistent rain ended play.
