The left-handed Browne stroked 132 for Victors One versus Guardian General Saints, last Saturday afternoon at the Arnos Vale Playing Field.

This was his second for the year against Saints, having hit 101 not out against them in the Neil Williams Twenty/20 competition in February.

In the longer version, Browne joined teammate Donwell Hector, along with Team Rivals’ duo Hyron Shallow and Marvin Small, as well as Rickford Walker of Saints and Rodney Lawrence of Radcliffe, as those hitting centuries.

Browne’ ton led his team’s total of 345. Chrisroy John scored 52, Lauron Francois, 45 and Miles Bascombe, 35, all made significant efforts in Victors One’s batting performance.

Topping Saints’ bowling was Kenroy Peters, who bagged 5 for 35 and Andrew Emtage, 3 for 121.

However, Saints’ batsmen also found the pitch at Arnos Vale Two to their liking, as they replied with 351 for 6.

Sunil Ambris, 75, Jerron John, 74, Romel Currency 48, Rickford Walker, 40 and Vincent Cupid, 32, combined to see their team overhaul Victors One’s total, as the match ended in a draw.

It was Walker’s third fifty in the campaign, which according to the St Vincent and the Grenadines Cricket Association Inc’s website, carries his tally of runs to 364.

Miles Bascombe, who is trailing Dyke Cato of Lime Radcliffe in the wickets aggregate, grabbed 3 for 90 and Norlan Williams had 2 for 106.
