An unbeaten and gritty half-century from opening batsman Melroy Stephenson along with a brilliant all-round effort by Ershaad Ali spurred the University of Guyana (UG) to an exciting four-wicket win over host Malteenoes Sports Club (MSC) in the latest round of the Georgetown Cricket Association (GCA), New Building Society (NBS) Second Division 40-over tournament yesterday.

Set a target of 157 for victory, UG led by Stephenson’s unbeaten 52, scurried home to 157-6 in 33 overs to see his side the first win of the tournament.
