Demerara proved their dominance in the GCB Senior Inter-County Super50 competition, securing their second consecutive title with a commanding seven-wicket victory over Essequibo at the Georgetown Cricket Club, Bourda, over the weekend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The defending champions maintained their unbeaten streak throughout the campaign, showcasing exceptional skill and discipline.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Under clear skies, Essequibo batted first and struggled to 164 all out in 46.5 overs. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kanhaiya Ramkarran contributed 49 runs, while Keanu Harry chipped in with 26, providing some resistance. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Demerara’s Ronaldo Ali Mohamed delivered a standout performance, taking four wickets for 47 runs and earning the Player of the Match title.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Chasing 165 for victory, Demerara comfortably reached the target in 33.4 overs, thanks to a solid 57 from Matthew Nandu and an unbeaten 56 from captain Tevin Imlach. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Despite the efforts of Essequibo bowlers Malcolm Hubbard (2 for 19) and Quentin Sampson, Demerara\u2019s clinical approach with the bat sealed the win.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Essequibo’s captain, Anthony Adams, reflected on the match, noting that early challenges on a tacky pitch and key losses in the first half hour hindered their efforts to set a competitive total.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With the local Super50 campaign concluded, attention now shifts to the Regional Super50 tournament scheduled in the coming weeks. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Guyana Cricket Board has also announced plans for an upcoming T20 competition, promising more action for cricket enthusiasts.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
