Badree, ‘Tadpole’star for Powergen

Player of the Year for 2010, Samuel Badree, took a five-wicket haul while discarded T&T legspinner Dave Mohamnmed grabbed four as defending champions Powergen bowled FC Clarke Road out for 231 on the first day of the Eastern Credit Union National Premier League at Syne Village yesterday.

Badree (5-77) and Mohammed (4-79) bowled 81.5 overs between them to keep the visitors at bay, with Homchan Pooran topscoring with 44 and Greg Mahabir (36), Nicholas Jagmohan (28), and Tishan Maharaj (27) making smaller contributions. In reply, Powergen reached 24 without loss at the close.
Meanwhile at Honeymoon Park, Neil Williams (139) and Devon Clement (105) each slammed centuries to help Moosai post 351 for five declared in just 79 overs against SIS Central Sports. In reply, Central reached 75 for one by the end of play with Valmicki Deonarine looking well set on 47 not out.
