T&T chases 3rd straight win at Super50
T&T will be confident heading into its third match of the Regional Women’s Super50 Cup against the Windward Islands on Thursday at the Everest Cricket Club Ground, Georgetown, Guyana after easing to victories in its opening matches.
On Tuesday at the Georgetown Cricket Club, T&T romped to its second consecutive win when it overhauled Leeward Islands’ paltry 76 to win by four wickets.Off-spinners Leandra Ramdeen (4-12) and Karishma Ramharack (3-23) set up T&T’s win before opener Felicia Walters, who played two One Day Internationals (ODIs) two years ago, formalised the result with an unbeaten 32.
On Sunday, T&T topped host Guyana by 69 runs.
T&T will be facing a Windwards team that was crushed by Barbados by 241 runs at the National Stadium in Providence.
Sent in to bat unbeaten Barbados piled up a record 334 for three off their 50 overs – their highest-ever total in the history of the modern domestic championship – with West Indies stars Deandra Dottin (94 not out), Hayley Matthews (91) and Kycia Knight (81) all getting half-centuries.
Skipper Matthews struck 13 fours and a six off 113 balls, posting 134 for the second wicket with Knight after Danielle Small had perished cheaply for eight in the seventh over with the score on 35.
It was Dottin, however, who provided the rollicking finish to the innings. She lashed 15 fours and two sixes off a mere 50 deliveries, inspiring an 88-run, third-wicket stand with Kycia Knight and an unbroken fourth-wicket partnership of 77 with Kyshona Knight (23 not out).
In reply, Windwards were bundled out for 93 in the 29th over, with Windies fast bowler Shamilia Connell snatching three for 36 and her regular new-ball partner, Shakera Selman claiming two for 12. Afy Fletcher top-scored with 23 before retiring hurt.
An exciting affair is expected at Bourda, Georgetown, when the Barbadians meet undefeated Jamaica who had West Indies captain Stafanie Taylor producing her third regional one-day century but first in five years to negate Shemaine Campbelle’s, as Jamaica repelled a strong challenge from hosts Guyana to pull off a six-wicket win, in round two.
Asked to chase a demanding 243 at Everest after Campbelle had stroked 111 – also the third century of her career – Jamaica overhauled the target with 20 balls to spare, with the experienced Taylor carving out 119.
