Cricket:-
The Anguilla U-15 cricket team participated in two 50 over matches played in St Maarten over the weekend. Unfortunately, Anguilla lost in both matches but nevertheless we had a few good performances.
In the first match, Anguilla batted first and scored a total of 165 of which Keshawn Richardson scored 69. Keshawn along with Jarell Richardson’s took 3 wickets each. St Maarten at bat scored 182 all out. This score was a result of teams wanting to maximize the full amount of overs to be played.
In the second match, St Maarten batted first and scored 195 all out off 39.1 overs. In return, Anguilla scored 114 all out off 31 overs. The highest scorer was Tyrique Lake who scored 19 runs.
