Pleasing’ says Hemraj of maiden first-class ton

Chandrapaul Hemraj scored his maiden first class century against Barbados Pride

West Indies limited overs batman Guyana’s Chandrapaul Hemraj has described his maiden first class century as “pleasing.”

The 25-year-old left-handed opener from Strathavon, East Coast Demerara, marked his return to the Cricket West Indies Regional Four-Day tournament with a blistering 144 for the defending champions, Guyana Jaguars against Barbados Pride in the just-concluded third round of the tournament.

The match in which Jaguars won in Barbados, Hemraj struck 20 fours and four sixes during his over four-hour stay at the crease and his innings enabled the Jaguars to score an outright win over the star-studded home team in their own backyard.
