Powergen Women’s leading batters Caniesha Isaac, from left, Shania Abdool and Britney Cooper.

Brit­ney Coop­er scored an un­beat­en cen­tu­ry to lift Pow­er­gen Women to a huge 176-run vic­to­ry over Play­ers Sports Club (SC) in round three ac­tion in the T&T Women’s Crick­et As­so­ci­a­tion’s (TTWCA) Pre­mier­ship Di­vi­sion 50 Overs League on Jan­u­ary 26.

Pow­er­gen bat­ted first and post­ed an im­pres­sive score of 318/5 in 40 overs thanks to Coop­er's 66-ball-110 not out at the Pow­er­gen Sports Ground in Pe­nal. She had good sup­port of Sha­nia Ab­dool (63) and Ca­niesha Isaac (54), who each pro­duced half-cen­turies.

Sher­ine Ramkissoon was the lead­ing wick­et-tak­er with 2-50 while her team­mates Na­dia Mo­hammed (1-65) and Shani­ka Lal­loo (1-71) each picked up one but they strug­gled to re­strict Pow­er­gen, who thus far this sea­son has a win and no re­sult.

In re­ply, Play­ers SC fell way short of the tar­get, 142/8 in their 40 overs.

Saman­tha Bis­soon ran through the bat­ting line-up pick­ing up 4-30. Get­ting in on the ac­tion was Jes­si­ca O'Rosco with 2-31 while Kim­ber­ly John claimed 1-15.

Mo­hammed was the best with the bat for the los­ing side, scor­ing an un­beat­en half-cen­tu­ry (58 not out) while Ramkissoon put up 19.

Mean­while, at the Uni­ver­si­ty of West In­dies (UWI) South Field in St Au­gus­tine, UWI Women Crick­et Club (WCC) beat Hi­bis­cus Ladies by 10 wick­ets to com­plete its third straight win in the TTWCA league.

Hi­bis­cus Ladies, bat­ting first, scored a mea­gre 65 in 26.5 overs. The bowl­ing re­spon­si­bil­i­ty was shared among Rose­mary Sama­roo (2-4), Ka­ma­ra Ra­goo­bar (2-5) and Shali­ni Sama­roo (2-9), who each took two wick­ets.

In re­ply, Re­niece Boyce (32 not out) and Ra­goo­bar (20 not out) got UWI WCC to the win­ning tar­get of 67 with­out loss in 11.4 overs.

In the oth­er match in the di­vi­sion, played at Bug­gy Haynes Ground, Tacarigua, Tech­no­rats earned its first win of the sea­son. Led by the bat­ting of Kir­by­i­na Alexan­der (45) and Tr­isha Mar­quis (37), Tech­nocrats topped AC Women by 138 runs.

Mar­quis (3-8) then picked up the ball and, along with Di­anne Has­s­ranah (3-22), took three wick­ets each in the lop­sided af­fair.

In the Cham­pi­onship Di­vi­sion (30-Over League), Sital Young­sters sealed their third con­sec­u­tive win af­ter de­feat­ing Crick­et Lovers by 67 runs at the Young­sters Recre­ation Ground, Pan­cham Street, Fe­lic­i­ty.

At the Ex­change Recre­ation Ground in Cou­va, North Zone beat Moses Lendore Crick­et Acad­e­my (ML­CA) by six wick­ets, while at the Daren Gan­ga Recre­ation Ground in Bar­rack­pore, Vic­to­ria Crick­et Club (CC) won by 78 runs against Bren­da Solozano Crick­et Acad­e­my (BSCA).
