Varun Partap and Nicolai Beharrysingh starred for El Dorado North Hindu in their massive 105-run win over Tunapuna Hindu School in the Inter-Primary Block-Up Windball 15-over cricket competition on June 5 at Constantine Park, Macoya.
El Dorado won the toss and elected to bat in this reduced 12-over match due to inclement weather. Partap struck five fours and eight sixes in his knock of 71 to lead the team to 141/7 off their 12 overs.
The opening pair of Avash Persad and Jerome Jaggernauth got El Do off to a great start, getting to 39 after four overs. Persad made 19, while Jaggernauth pitched in with 14. Brentley Barker was the best bowler for Tunapuna, taking 2/21.
In response, Tunapuna were skittled out for only 36. Nicolai Beharrysingh was in fine form, snatching a hat-trick in his first over. Beharrysingh ended the match with figures of 4/7, while Jaggernauth was also among the wickets, taking 3/4.
In another boys match on June 5, Dinsley-Trincity Government Primary school got past St Mary's Home by ten wickets behind Johnathon Watson's all-round performance.
