Johnathan Foo slammed a scorching ton while Veerasammy Permaul and Raun Johnson shared nine wickets as Lower Corentyne claimed first day bragging rights over Essequibo in yesterday’s opening round of the Guyana Cricket Board Jaguars Franchise League three-day tournament.
Originally scheduled to be played at the Wales Community Centre ground, the match was shifted to the Tuschen Cricket Ground and despite some slight concerns after some parts of the ground were a bit soggy, play bowled off at 12:45hrs.
Captain Permaul, the left-arm spinner snatched 5-23 while Johnson, the tall fast-bowler extracted good bounce and pace to bag 4-30 as Essequibo crumbled to 101 all out inside 35 overs.
