CHE SIMMONS had tongues wagging yesterday after a remarkable feat in the Barbados Cricket Supplies Under-13 Cricket Competition.

Simmons, son of entertainment personality Wayne “Kool” Simmons and grandson of former Government minister Keith Simmons, enjoyed the rare distinction of dismissing all ten opposing batsmen while playing for Franklyn Stephenson Academy against YMPC at Beckles Road, St Michael.

The Combermere fast bowler, a member of the champion West Terrace Primary School team three years ago, finished with the amazing figures of ten wickets for 16 runs from 5.3 overs. Only two runs were scored off the bat, while the remainder came from extras.

Six of his victims were bowled and another three fell by the lbw route as YMPC were dismissed for 38 in 10.3 overs before Franklyn Stephenson Academy completed an easy ten-wicket win.
