The Canadian U19s earned their first win of the West Indies Regional 50 over tournament with a 16 run win over the Leeward Islands. A 70 run opening partnership between Adhihetty and Sharma got Canada off to a good start, and they made 158/9 in 34 overs (reduced due to rain). The Leewards were restricted to 143/8 from their 34 overs, with 1Adhihetty taking 4/34 and Shahzad 3/18. Scorecard follows
ICC Americas Canada U19 158/9 (34 overs)
Leeward Islands U19 142/9 (34 overs)
Result: ICC Americas Canada won by 16 runs
Toss: Leeward Islands won the toss and elected to field
Played at Conaree, St Kitts on August 19, 2017
[Asterisk is against the name of Bhavindu Adhihetty on the scorecard received from CWI. No need to send me any notes along the lines of “Isn’t Akash Gill the captain. Bhavindu won player of the game 30 runs, & 3/34 from 6 overs; Rommel Shahzad took 3/18 from 5 overs as will be seen later when Leeward innings is added to the ICC Americas Canada U19 innings. 70 for Canada’s 1st wicket; 35 for 7th in 5.4 overs near the end of the 34 over limit in this match.]
