Playing at the Bourda cricket ground, left-arm fast bowler Andre Stoll ripped apart a hapless Essequibo with figures of 10 overs, 4 for 34. He was well supported by fellow paceman Seon Daniels who bowled six overs and took 3 for 31. Steven Sankar chipped in with 2 for 11 leaving the tourists 104 all-out in 33.3 overs.
