Currency steadies CCC against Windwards
BRIDGETOWN, Barbados (CMC) — Opener Romel Currency fell five short of a deserved century but his innings kept Combined Campuses and Colleges (CCC) afloat on the opening day of their Regional First Class Championship semi-final against Windward Islands yesterday.
The right-handed Currency perished late in the day when seemingly poised for his second first-class century, as CCC finished the day on 253 for nine after they were sent in at the 3Ws Oval.
He was let down by his fellow batsmen, however, as several got starts but failed to build. Shacoya Thomas stroked 32, the exciting Kyle Corbin scored 30, while the veteran left-hander Floyd Reifer hit 23.
Off-spinner and captain Liam Sebastien finished with four for 49, while left-arm spinner Garey Mathurin claimed three for 76, to be the leading bowlers.
