East Bank bounced back in the Demerara Inter-Association Under-17 second round with a nine-wicket win over West Demerara yesterday at Everest.
Led by four-wicket hauls from Thaddeus Lovell and Krsna Singh, West Demerara were routed for 93 in 28.3 overs while Mavindra Dindyal and Zachary Jodah’s unbeaten 79-run partnership steered East Bank to 94 for 1 in 18.5 overs.Winning the toss and electing to bat on a slow wicket, West Demerara were put on the back foot early as Avesh Persaud guided a low full toss from Lovell to point and attempted a single but slipped when he was sent back and eventually fell short of his ground. Lovell then struck with his next delivery to see the Region Three side slip to 2-2 after Vishaul Persaud edged to Jodah at second slip.
