Campden whip Fairburn to lift 40-over crown
MAY PEN, Clarendon — Campden Cricket Club were crowned champions of the Clarendon Cricket Association’s ’40 for 40′ limited overs competition when they romped to a big 193-run win over Fairburn Cricket Club in the final played at the Bushy Park Sports Ground on Sunday.
Campden, who were looking to restore pride to their name after recently losing their Six-A-Side title to Crooked River, pocketed $40,000 and the championship trophy.
Jamaica’s left-arm seamer Krishmar Santokie was the star of the show bagging five wickets for 22 runs off six overs, as Fairburn, replying to Campden’s total of 240, were bundled for a league-low 47 runs.
Santokie got good support from his captain Hamlet Stewart, who claimed four wickets for 25 runs.
Earlier, Campden, sent in to bat made 240 all-out in the last over with Gidfoy Richards (40), Dwight Stewart (38), Jason Wedderburn (38) and Roshane Thomas (30) getting the bulk of the runs.
