In All Starz’ innings, Ron Adams stroked 38 and Desron Maloney – 36.

Responding, Dr Thomas Injectors were going along merrily with Damion Allen at the crease, but his dismissal for 53, put the screws on his team’s run chase.

Maloney was the pick of All Starz’ bowling, picking off 3 for 20 and Glenroy Dasent took 2 for 17.

All Starz had made it to Sunday’s final, following their win the previous day, Saturday, defeating Roger’s Photo Studio Fya One by 81 runs.

Desron Maloney belted five sixes in his knock of 53 and Ron Adams contributed 35 in All Starz’ posting of 140 for 7 from 20 overs.

Bowling for Fya One, Cornelius Emmons had 2 for 17 and Jerado Jardine – 2 for 31.

Taking charge of the bowling proceedings was Dwayne Williams, who grabbed 5 for 11.
