Police Sports Club (PSC) duo, Lennox Andrews and Andrew Lyght Jr., rewrote the history books as their side recorded a massive 192-run win over Positive Foundation Agricola in the Georgetown Cricket Association Atlantic Marine Supplies Suzuki motorcycles second-division T20 tournament yesterday.
At Queen’s College ground, Agricola won the toss and inserted the lawmen, a decision they would regret as Police piled up 275 for three in 20 overs, the highest total in the tournament. Agricola, in response, could only muster 83 all out in 17.2 overs, resulting in the heaviest defeat in the competition.
Andrews muscled his way to 116 not out from just 55 balls. He clubbed 10 sixes and eight fours and took a liking to Joshua Jones, who was smashed for 26 runs in the seventh over as he stroked three sixes in that over, in the long on region to see Police reach 112 for one.
Andrews would then bring up his half-century in the following over with a four over deep square leg off of Joel Gilkes. He also brought up triple-figures with a six over long on from Idris Allen.
The right hander shared in a record breaking 217-run partnership for the second wicket with Lyght jr., who became the fifth batsman in the tournament to score a century, making it the first time in the tournament two batsmen scored centuries in the same innings.
Lyght’s even ton came from 54 balls and was highlighted by 13 fours and four sixes before he was run out.
Meanwhile, extras accounted for 29 runs while Troy Benn chipped in with a 23-run cameo. His 10-ball innings featured five boundaries before being bowled by Gilkes.
In the chase, Dwain Dick took two wickets in 10 balls without a run scored while Vishal Jaigobin and Benn took two wickets each for 21 and 28 runs respectfully.
Oswin Blair top scored with 19 from 24 balls while extras had the next best tally of 15. Deandre Denny (13), Jones (11) and Nasurdeen Ally (10) were the only other batsmen to reach double figures.
