Bowlers shine in first T&T trial match

Sun, Dec 29, '13

The bowlers came up trumps in Trinidad and Tobago’s first practice match ahead of the 2014 50-over season, a low-scoring affair at Queen’s Park Oval, Port of Spain yesterday with batsmen struggling to put runs on the board.

Team A cruised to an easy seven-wicket win in just 25.5 overs, in a match reduced to 40 overs due to early morning showers, which kept the players off the field.

Team B, featuring Kjorn Ottley, Steven Katwaroo, Yannick Ottley, Yannic Cariah, Sherwin Ganga and Marlon Richards, were put in to bat first and could only muster 108 off 36.3 overs. Team A replied with 109 for three off 25.5 overs to win by seven wickets.
