A match-defining half-century from Reniece Boyce propelled Trinidad and Tobago to a 69-run win over host Guyana in the opening round of the Cricket West Indies (CWI) Colonial Medical Insurance Women’s Super50 Cup at the Providence Stadium, yesterday. 

Boyce, who strolled to the crease with the score on 61 – 4, carved out a responsible half-century to carry her side to 221 for 7 after 50 overs.

Guyana women in reply, scored 152 all out.

The day began with the Guyanese winning the toss and electing to bowl on a grassy looking surface, which provided plenty of assistance for seamers Erva Giddings and Tremayne Smart, who both got the ball to sway early on.
