KIRK?EDWARDS stroked an accomplished undefeated 71, which guided CounterPoint Wanderers to their third win on the trot in the Sagicor General Twenty20 Competition yesterday.
Set 133, Wanderers easily got home by seven wickets and with seven balls left. Edwards faced 55 deliveries, counted seven threes and an equal number of fours.
Edwards and fellow Barbados and West Indies batsman Kraigg Brathwaite (15 not out) shared an unbroken fourth-wicket stand of 67 from 42 balls.
Medium-pacer Amal Nurse removed both openers for 14 runs from his four overs.
Earlier, YMPC were limited to 132 for six from their allotted 20 overs. Kemal Smith hit an attacking unbeaten 47 from 38 balls, spiced with four threes and four fours.
Once, YMPC lost Stephen Blackett and Shane Dowrich cheaply, they never sufficiently accelerated the scoring rate after they were 60 for three at the half-way stage.
