Cricket : Pioneers Edge Out Jets-Just

It was as exciting and as close an encounter as you can get.

It was game one on Sunday 3rd January, in the ongoing Harvey Stapleton T-20 tournament, being hosted by the Nevis Cricket Association.

It was a match-up between Pioneers and SDA Jets and played at the Brown Hill Recreation grounds.

Pioneers won the toss and took the first strike.

Duan Webbe batted fluently until he was brilliantly run out, but outside of that, the Pioneers batting generally struggled, due to some tight bowling from the Jets bowling unit.

They managed a reasonable total of 101 from their 15 allotted overs.

The jets got off to a good enough start, but despite solid knocks from Hosea Pluck and Curtis Dore, fell just short of the total by a mere five runs.

Summarized scores: Pioneers 101 for 6 in 15 overs: Duan Webbe 48; Earlian David 15
Saneldo Willet 2 for 24; Elroy Kelly 1 for 20

SDA Jets -96 for 3 from 15 overs: Hosea Pluck 25; Curtis Dore 20*; Jadel Allen 12; Curtis Morton 9
Vish Singh 2 for 10; Marcus Dubbery 1 for 20

Pioneers won by 5 runs
