An unbeaten half-century from Kevin Sinclair ensured West Berbice their second bonus point after defeating East Bank Demerara by eight wickets in the second round of the SBF Petroleum/Cricket Guy Incorporated Jaguars 50-over Franchise yesterday.

In the presence of a handful of spectators at  the desert-like Bush Lot Ground, Sinclair continued his impressive form with the bat and followed up his unbeaten 36 in the first round with 56 not out to lead West Berbice to their target of 119-2 in 20 overs.

Despite the outfield littered with holes and manure from the cows that graze there, the former national Under-19 displayed his strength through the cover region with four of his half dozen fours, dominantly driven through that area.
