COMBINED Campuses and Colleges (CCC) Marooners registered a stunning upset victory over Jamaica Scorpions in the opening fixture of the Regional Super50 Tournament at the Three Ws Oval yesterday.

After winning the toss, Marooners posted a moderate 215 for eight off their 50 overs before dismissing Scorpions for 140 in 35 overs to win by 75 runs.

The match commenced fifteen minutes late due to transportation problems encountered by the Scorpions’ squad but once play got started man of the match, 19-year-old Amir Jangoo, announced himself with an impressive a half-century in his debut List A match.

After losing his opening partner, captain Jamal Smith, lbw to Nikita Miller for 13, Jangoo played steadily to notch up 64 from 114 balls. The left-handed Trinidadian stroked four fours and one six off (balls). (AH)
