Homraj spurs New York/Tri State XI to victory

A 22-ball 69 from opener Akshay Homraj spurred the New York/Tri State XI (NY) to a six-wicket victory over the Georgetown Cricket Association (GCA) Select XI in the one-off, T20 match at the Demerara Cricket Club ground yesterday.

Winning the toss and electing to bat, GCA XI managed just 130-7 from their 20 overs while NY finished off a successful chase with a massive six to close on 135-4 with an over to spare.

The fans turned out in their numbers to witness the match and Everest all-rounder, Ariel Tilku batting at six, gave them their money’s worth.
