Hustlers cool off Guyana's Heat in Round 9

Guyana Heat

177 all out
Terry 4 for 24

Hustlers 2

180 for 3
Ravi 67
Cliff 50 not out
Deo 38

Hustlers won the toss and sent in Guyana Heat to bat first and were soon thinking if they had made the right decision.
Guyana Heat's batsmen set off scoring quickly and at the break they were sitting pretty at 82 for 2.

Shortly after the innings resumption, the Hustlers bowlers started to find their line and length with Terry bowling superbly. He took 4 good wickets in 4 overs for only 24 runs which meant Guyana Heat's innings closed at 177 all out.

Hustlers went to bat and soon lost opener Chris with the score on 27 but cometh the hour cometh the batting specilists Cliff and Ravi as they went about the run chase with some sweet hitting. At the halfway stage they were sitting nicely on 112 for 1. Ravi soon departed for a well constructed 67 with the score at 133. Deo came to bat and quickly fired up his bat and stroked a quickfire 38 to put the game out of reach for Guyana Heat. Cliff reached his 50 with a six over mid wicket to see his side home in the 23rd over.

It was a good batting performance by the top order batsmen for Hustlers as Ravi, Cliff, and then Deo made the run chase look easy.

Best bowler was once again Terry.

Next week game see the Hustlers venture out to West Palm Beach to meet D Diamond CC
