Permaul leaves Hurricanes in a spin

Night cricket at the stadium. Jaguar Sherfane Rutherford bowls to Hurricanes’ Akeem Saunders whilst wicketkeeper Bramble and the Guyana slip cordon pay keen attention

Wicketkeeper batsman Anthony Bramble narrowly missed out on converting his maiden first-class century into a double whilst propelling the Guyana Jaguars to 417 all out on day two in their day/night encounter against the Leeward Island Hurricanes at the Guyana National Stadium, Providence.  

Jaguars after piling up their mammoth first innings score, also found reward with the ball as Veerasammy Permaul spun webs around the visitors, to leave the Hurricanes on stuttering at 114 -9, still trailing by 303 runs at the close.   

Jaguars resumed the day on 276 – 8, with Bramble on 116, and his overnight partner, Permaul on one.  The duo added another 31 runs before Permaul (11), was trapped LBW by seamer Mervin Mathew.
