Romario Ramdeholl snared 6 first innings wickets yesterday. Afraz Ali Budhoo will be the key today with his unbeaten 36. The dynamic Ramdeholl was electric with his off-spin, accounting for more than half of the team’s dismissals and responsible for the collapse of the middle/lower-order as he snared 1st innings figures of 6-38. Little support was required from the other Guyana bowlers despite seamers Jonathan Van Lange grabbing 2 victims and Emmanuel Lewis (1-1) along with Darwin Joseph (1-5) also finding some luck. Were it not for Trinidad skipper Brendam Boodoo stroking 52 with a four and two sixes, 38 from Jayden Kent and lower-order resistance from Aaidan Racha (31), their side would have been posting less than the eventual 202 all out in 65.4 overs. At stumps Guyana were in a tricky situation being 94-4, with Afraz Ali Budhoo the key with his 36* and Ramdeholl (15*), returning to show his batting skills, as he and Budhoo will be key today. Opener Rampersaud Ramnauth (18) was the other top-scorer as four Trinidad bowlers claimed a wicket each on the first day.
