BARBADOS’ OLDEST CRICKET club are the Barbados Cricket Association Super50 Cup champions for the first time in the competition’s 42-year history.
CounterPoint Wanderers captured the 50-over title when they trounced four-time winners Crane Resort St Catherine by 93 runs in the final at the Windward Club in St Philip yesterday.
Appearing in their third final, Wanderers, who won the toss, amassed 228 for nine in their 50 overs with left-handed opener Shayne Moseley fashioning a responsible 101 off 145 balls.
Moseley struck four fours and three sixes and shared an important 98-run fourth-wicket stand with his former Combermere teammate Jonathan Drakes, who made an attractive run-a-ball 52 with three fours and two sixes.
In reply, St Catherine dramatically collapsed from the comfort of 112 for one to 135 all out in 40.2 overs. (ES)
