In reply to sgtdjones

Jeremy is actively defying the president’s One Guyana policy.

We need a version of Trini coexistence of diverse people.

Pretorius to Charles, SIX runs
That is amazing! Shortish and angled into his body, he advances down the track and slugs it way over midwicket for a six; delightfully played using his fluid wrists and relying more on timing than muscle

5.4
4
Pretorius to Charles, FOUR runs
That's a good delivery, moral victory for the bowler. Pace off back of a length nibbling away in the corridor, surprised him with the slower one but he threw his bat at it and the outside edge flies past slip for a four

Another googly which is quicker and into his pads, he prances down and bullies it over long-off for a six, gets better of his former Proteas teammate

Ibrahim : "I am following from Germany.Currently 1:26 luckily tomorrow i don't have school."

Shamar Joseph into the attack. Can he get a breakthrough?

8.3

Shamar Joseph to Charles, FOUR runs
Lousy full-toss on the pads, he puts the rubbish in the bin and it races away to the rope
8.4

Shamar Joseph to Charles, SIX runs
On a length and angled into his body, he is at his best today, he pulls it effortlessly over midwicket for a six. That is marvelous hand-eye coordination, looks like it's going to be a colossal score

Motie to Charles, FOUR runs
Imran throwing dices and it's not working, Motie bowls full into the legs, he turned to deep fine boundary, just got enough legs

9.5

Motie to Charles, SIX runs
Tossed up on middle with a hint of spin, he waits for it come closer at him and then pulls the trigger, beautiful swing of the bat and use of feet to knock it over bowler's head for a maximum

Moeen Ali to Charles, OUT
Some relief for the home side! Tossed wide of off, caught at long-on by Keemo Paul who keeps his eyes locked on the ball and pouches it brilliantly with Romario Shepherd coming towards him as well. Finally something to celebrate for Guyana and the packed house! The fireworks finally come to a close after a brilliant knock!

14.1
1
Shamar Joseph to du Plessis, 1 run
The run-rate has dropped down a bit and is now at 10. Over the wicket, slightly short and angled in, whacked into the air and the man perched near the rope at deep midwicket does well to keep it in

14.4
6
Shamar Joseph to ,du Plessis, SIX runs
Arrows it in from over the wicket again, bit short and slants in at middle and leg, carted languidly over deep backward square for a six, his trademark flick off his hips and what a stylish way to get to his fifty!

14.5
4
Shamar Joseph to du Plessis, , FOUR runs
Takes the pace off and keeps it short and wide of off, dispatched with no trouble up and over cover for a four, one bounce and it crashes onto the advertising hoardings. Du Plessis on the charge!

14.6
W
Shamar Joseph to du Plessis, OUT
That is an exceptional catch at long-on by Rahmanullah Gurbaz! Back of a length and angling in at a nagging off-stump line, tries to smoke him downtown and finds Gurbaz who takes a screamer down the ground, it required something special to dismiss the man in form and this was special from the fielder who is not doing wicketkeeping today
