May 28, 2023

Gladiola and YMPC will clash in the final of the BCA T-20 Cup Competition.

In today’s semifinals, YMPC defeated Wildey at the Desmond Haynes Oval via a super over.

Wildey batted first and posted 147 for 4 off their 20 overs. 

Demetrius Richards led with 56, which included 6-fours and a six, while skipper Kemar Smith took 2 for 21.

In reply, YMPC was held to 147 for 6, as Wildey forced a super over.

Dwayne Smith top-scored with 63 not out, with 4-fours and 2-sixes.

YMPC batted first in the super over and scored 14 for one.

The game ended with Wildey being dismissed at none for two, losing those wickets off two consecutive balls from Dwayne Smith – the first wicket reportedly being a classic catch by Ramon Kellman.

In the other match at Bayfield, Gladiola had their victory over Pickwick.

Gladiola in reply made 155 for 4 off 19.3 overs, to win by six wickets and stay undefeated in the competition.
