RED FORCE captain Darren Bravo has hailed the triple spin threat of Sunil Narine, Akeal Hosein and Yannic Cariah, after a 114-run victory over Guyana Harpy Eagles on Saturday propelled the hosts to the top of the CG United Super50 standings.
At the Brian Lara Cricket Academy in Tarouba, Red Force posted a healthy 290 for eight, led by late pyrotechnics from Cariah (71 not out off 48 balls), and half-centuries from opener Kjorn Ottley (52) and Bravo (51).
Cariah returned with the ball to dismantle the Guyana reply, claiming five wickets for 34 runs to bowl out the visitors for 176 in 33.4 overs.
