Police Two will be looking to detain defending champions, Guardian General Saints when they clash in this Sunday’s final match of the Neil Williams T/20 cricket competition.

The two reached the title match decider after dominating their opponents last weekend.

Douglas’ innings contained 12 fours and 10 sixes. Davian Barnum copped 2/41.

In reply, Flow Rivals were dismissed for 120 from 15.1 overs; Javed Williams, 39.

Taking on Keegan’s Bequia XI for a place in the final, it was easy like Sunday morning at the Sion Hill Playing Field.

Asked to bat, Bequia XI had difficulty negotiating the bowling of Benniton Stapleton, 4/4 and Romario Bibby, 3/2, and were dismissed for 48 in 14.3 overs. Dillon Douglas then struck 33 not out to see Police Two to 49/1 from 3.5 overs, winning by nine wickets.

Meanwhile, Saints had a six wicket win over Victors One at the same Sion Hill venue, also on Sunday.

Victors One made 121 all out from their 20 overs. Keron Cottoy, 50. Sunil Ambris snared 3/8 and Jeremy Layne, 2/21.

Victors One went into Sunday’s semi-final following a 55 run triumph over Carlos James MSDA/Julius Anthony Northern Stars on Saturday at Sion Hill.

Atticus Browne who struck a polished 97 not out and Ray Jordan, 47 saw Victors One posting 207/4 from their 20 overs. Donald Delpesche had figures of 2/26, bowling for Northern Stars, whose reply ended at 152 all out from 18 overs. Donald Delpesche struck 46 and Tilron Harry, 35.
