WINDIES SUPER50 CUP: Hemraj celebrates with hundred

PORT OF SPAIN, Trinidad – Chandrapaul Hemraj celebrated his selection to the WINDIES One-day squad for the Tour of India with his maiden WINDIES Super50 Cup hundred in a tidy all-round performance to lead Guyana Jaguars past WINDIES “B” by nine wickets on Sunday here.

Hemraj hit an undefeated 103 and grabbed a pair of wickets, as the 10-time champion Jaguars clinched their first victory of the 2018-19 Tournament.

Nicholas Pooran hit his third straight half-century and Kyle Hope supported with an even 50, as Trinidad & Tobago Red Force survived a scare from Canada to log a two-wicket victory.

But Griffith was caught behind off WINDIES Under-19 World Cup-winning pacer Chemar Holder for 14 in the seventh over to leave the Jags 40 for one.

It was the only success for the WINDIES “B” bowlers, as Christopher Barnwell came to the crease and shared a 153-run, unbroken, second-wicket stand with Hemraj to take the Jaguars over the finish line.

Hemraj ended with 12 fours and two sixes from 80 balls and Barnwell collected one four and three sixes in an unbeaten 61 from 71 balls, as the Jaguars reached their target with 130 balls remaining.
