The Guyana Harpy Eagles recorded their first win of the 2024 CG United Super50 Cup with an eight-wicket DLS method win over the Leeward Islands Hurricanes at the Brian Lara Cricket Academy in Tarouba on Tuesday. In a match reduced to 41 overs per side, the Hurricanes were first bundled out for 139 in 34.2 overs after being put in to bat by the Harpy Eagles. Captain Rakheem Cornwall top scored with 36, while Jeremiah Louis made 34*. Justin Greaves, who came into this game on the back of scores of 111* against the West Indies Academy, 112 against the Barbados Pride and 151* against the Trinidad & Tobago Red Force, could only manage 27 this time around. Man of the match, Veerasammy Permaul, took 3-24 from nine overs and was supported well by Ashmead Nedd and Nial Smith, who took 2-19 from eight overs and 2-42 from eight overs, respectively. Guyana then needed only 27.5 overs to reach 141-2, thanks to half-century performances from captain Tevin Imlach and Matthew Nandu. Imlach made 69* off 76 balls, his third fifty of the season, while Nandu made a 74-ball 50.
Harpy Eagles, currently in fourth position, are back in action on Thursday against Jamaica Scorpions at the Queen’s Park Oval from 09:00h.
