An unbeaten half-century from Amzaan Appalsamy steered the Corriverton Cricket Club to a 124-run win over No.71 Cricket Club last weekend, taking them to the Price is Right Supermarket final against No. 70 M.Y.O which is set for April 6 at the Skeldon Community Centre ground.
Overnight showers forced officials to shave five overs off each innings making the encounter a 45 overs per side one. Corriverton, batting first, scored 250 for 8 from their allotted 45 overs with Appalsamy blazing four fours and nine sixes in his 97 batting at number 9. He was supported by Clavern Beresford (39) and Anthony Seeraj (25).
