Match Summary: Babonneau Leatherbacks beat Vieux Fort North Raiders by 12 runs.

The value of having a good total on the board has been proven in this contest. Irrespective of the format, it always goes a long way in aiding a team's cause and it was none too different with the Babonneau Leatherbacks, who posted 104 on the board after being asked to bat by the Vieux Fort North Raiders. It was down to Shervon Joseph and Johnel Eugene who powered them along their innings and while they might have fallen short of the psychological 110-run mark, their bowlers ensured they had enough.

Nyeem Rosemond and Caleb Thomas started off with a tight radar and even while Dwight Thomas found the odd boundary, the North Raiders were behind the eight-ball and had a lot of catching up to do. Dane Edward couldn't contribute anything substantial although Junior Peter came out positively and added some impetus to the innings. A quiet over from Josh Cepal sent the asking rate upwards though and that made life tough for the batters.

The big shots had to come but given the high risk associated with it, the false strokes were never far away. Kurt Edward then came out firing on all cylinders and wasn't ready to bow down without a fight even as the asking rate shot up to gargantuan proportions. He struck four sixes during his stay in the middle and gave his team a ray of hope especially having begun the penultimate over with two big ones. His dismissal was the final nail in the coffin though as Eugene and Antoine Zayee held their nerve at the death and executed their plans to perfection as the Leatherbacks defend their score with ease.

The North Raiders have now lost their second game out of three and remain in seventh position on the table. They desperately need to work on a few things across departments and return to winning ways at the earliest, while the Leatherbacks, who now have four points from as many games to move into third position, will hope that this generates a good wave of momentum for them going forward.

A clinical display with the ball in hand and the Leatherbacks are home. Crucial points on the board and they will be mighty pleased with how they went about this!

9.6 Zayee Antoine to Awene Edward, yorker on off stump, Edward squeezed this one down to the man at long off. The Babonneau Leatherbacks take the game by 13 runs!

9.5 Zayee Antoine to Awene Edward, FOUR! Full toss on off stump, Edward got right under it and thumped the ball over the in-field at mid off!

Awene Edward, RHB, comes to the crease

And that's the game! Moses just had to swing with gay abandon but alas, he fails to connect.

9.4 Zayee Antoine to Rick Moses, BOWLED HIM! Antoine got the yorker right this time! He kept it on leg stump, Moses ran down the pitch to try and smash it away towards the leg side, was far from making contact, and his leg stump went for a toss!

9.3 Zayee Antoine to Rick Moses, full toss, and Moses missed out! This was down the leg side as well, Moses looked to swat it away but missed!

There's one. Three more to go?

9.2 Zayee Antoine to Rick Moses, SIX! This was full on off stump, Moses cleared his front knee and mowed this one over long off, the ball just about cleared the ropes!

9.1 Zayee Antoine to Rick Moses, full and straight, this one yorked Moses as he looked to make contact, play and miss

Outstanding from Eugene in pulling things back after those first two sixes! There's so much merit in defensive damage control in this format and it has worked like a charm for him. Two or three good deliveries hereon and the Leatherbacks ought to be home. Vieux Fort North Raiders require 24 runs to win off the final over!

8.6 Johnel Eugene to Hilarian Smith, edged past third man! The fielder at short third gave chase and cut it off. The batters got a brace

8.5 Johnel Eugene to Rick Moses, full outside off, Moses looked to pump this one down the ground but found the man at long off on the bounce. Just one

8.4 Johnel Eugene to Hilarian Smith, good length delivery bowled straight, dabbed towards deep mid wicket for a single

Hilarian Smith, RHB, comes to the crease.

What a moment in this match! Just when you thought there was a twist, there comes another in the form of a crucial wicket as Edward's cameo is brought to a screeching halt!

8.3 Johnel Eugene to Kurt Edward, BOWLEDDDD! Edward is distraught! Eugene dragged his length back, Edward looked to cut this one away, got an inside edge, and the ball dropped onto his stumps! Is that the game for the North Raiders?
