Defending champion of the Guyana Cricket Board’s (GCB) Women’s U-19 T20 competition, Demerara, was crushed by nine wickets as Berbice won emphatically to lift this year’s trophy.

Berbice skipper Realanna Grimmond turned in a match-winning bowling performance before she did her bit with the bat to lead her side to victory.

After winning the toss, Grimmond inserted Demerara to bat and accounted for four wickets as the Berbicians skittled their foe for a meagre 63 in 15 overs.
