Pooran’s ‘special’ ton leaves teammates in admiration

Left-arm spinner Ashmead Nedd.

A maiden T20 century from Nicholas Pooran kept the hopes alive for the Guyana Amazon Warriors to reach the semi-finals in the Caribbean Premier League and has left the team in admiration.

The 24-year-old left hander was promoted up the order to number four, a move he has been longing for a while now and admitted it was good to ask for something and get that. He contended the result spoke for itself, relating to his promotion.

“For the last couple months I’ve been working hard on my fitness and I wanted to improve on my skills and I know fitness was the way and my girlfriend and Jason Pilgrim I must say they worked with me tremendously hard over the last five months and today I am very happy,” Pooran revealed.
