Also there was a win for French Mariann Terrace Schoolboys. Rodney Lewis made 45, Shawn Wallace, 36, as Schoolboys reached 192, batting first. Romaul Stowe was the pick of Combined Starsâ bowling, with 3 for 30.
In response, Combined Stars stopped at 143. Garfield Sargeant hit 24, as Troy Tannis, 3 for 29, Deandross Williams, 2 for 16, and Jamal Simmons, 2 for 29, did the demolition with the ball for the Schoolboys.

The planned friendly match between a St. Vincent and the Grenadines Cricket Association select Eleven and a Bequia team did not materialize, as the parent body belatedly postponed its excursion to that Grenadine Island. (RT)
