Champions Georgetown celebrate after winning the title

IN a truncated final-round encounter at the Queen’s College ground, pre-tournament favourites, Georgetown beat West Demerara by nine wickets to take Championships honours in the Demerara Cricket Board (DCB) Inter-Association 50 overs U-15 tournament.
After a lengthy delay after showers halted play after seven overs, the game was reduced to a 27-over affair, and saw West Demerara bowled out for 84, as extras top-scored with 37.

Only Patrice France (16) and Ishan Harricharran (15) got into double figures.
West Demerara were fairly well set, 66-4, before losing their last five wickets for 12 runs.
Makai Dowlin captured 5-14 and got support from Skipper and left-arm spinner Brandon Henry, who had 2-18 for the City side which remained unbeaten.

After suffering an inauspicious start when impressive pacer Patrice Fraser dismissed Khush Seegobin for a duck after he produced the highest score in the tournament (195) against East Bank, Lamar Seecharran stroked a fluent unbeaten 44 from 42 balls with five fours and six.
Aided by 22 extras, Seecharran hit a six to end the game, while Yoshua Hutson finished on 16, and shared an unbroken 86-run stand for the second wicket. (Sean Devers)
