Berbice defeat Demerara by 32 runs

Junior Sinclair top scored with 44 for Berbice

Berbice defeated Demerara by 32 runs at the  Everest Cricket Club yesterday as the second round of the Hand-In-Hand Under-19 Inter-County 50-overs tournament concluded.

With the contest reduced to 49 overs, a late push from the Berbice lower order bats men ensured they reached 185 in 47.4 overs while their bowlers contained Demerara to 153-8 from their full quota.

Before the rain came with Berbice 72-3, the defending champions were in a spot of bother early on as Qumar Torrington trapped Alex Algoo leg before wicket for two.
