Jahron Alfred took three for 16 in four overs while Satesh Goolcharan scored an unbeaten 30 as T&T Cricket Board Championship Twenty20 winners the University of T&T (UTT) upset Alescon Comets by eight wickets.
This was on the second day of the TTCB Premiership Twenty20 Cricket Festival at Guaracara Park, Pointe-a-Pierre yesterday.
Batting first, Comets crumbled to 69 all out in 18.2 overs after being bamboozled by UTT's attack of Alfred, Andrew Hospedales (4-2-9-2), Hayden Walsh Jr (3-0-18-2) and Emile Rajah (2.2-0-9-2). Opener Amir Khan (12) and Faizal Baksh (10) were the only batsmen to reach doubles figures. UTT batted sensibly in their reply, getting to the target for the loss of two wickets in 12.2 overs.
