Cayman and Jamaica dominated the semifinals of the Challenge Trophy T/20 competitions and are set to meet on Sunday in what we expect will be a display of the stars. Cayman youngsters Zachary

McLaughlin 51 and Omar Willis 34 provided the team with a solid foundation before Kervin Ebanks 19 and Ramon Sealy 16n.o pushed their total to a respected 145 for 5 wickets. Basil Legore 3 for 16 was the World Stars leading bowler.

An emphatic bowling display from Marlon Bryan, Kervin Ebanks, Ricardo Roach and Gregory Smith contained the free scoring World Stars. A late charge from Nigel Strough 40 and Basil Legore 27n.o was not enough. Cayman won by 28 runs.

Jamaica is on a role and made no mistake booking their passage to the final by running over Guyana. Batting first Guyana was restricted to 129 runs. Nan Budhram 38 and Mahendra Sanichar 31 were the main batsmen while Ladel Farquharson and Alessandro Morris took 2 wickets each for Jamaica. In form batsman Ainsley Hall 53 and twenties from Conroy Wright and Garth Bryan showed the depth of the Jamaica team. Jamaica won by 7 wickets.

Will the young Cayman team lead by Abali Hoilett and which includes CICA Cricketer of the Year Kervin Ebanks be able to match the hitting power of Ladel Farquharson and Ainsley Hall of the Jamaica team? All questions will be answered on Sunday as the curtains come down on another fantastic year of cricket in the Caymans Islands. 10.30am start! You cannot miss a ball.
