National all-rounder Ricardo Adams made his mark in this year’s SBF Petroleum Jaguars One-Day League by stringing together a crafty all-round showing which piloted defending champions Essequibo to a commanding 115-run over Upper Corentyne at the Everest Cricket Club Ground, yesterday. 

Adams struck a fierce half-century and later returned with the ball to produce a tidy effort and hand his side the win, their second of the tournament. 

The day began with Essequibo winning the toss and electing to bat,  posting  235-9 from their allotted 50 overs. Run-scoring was spearheaded by Ricardo Adams who cracked 54 which included five fours and three maximums.
