Mystic Marvels needed just 8.3 overs to complete an eight-wicket victory over Sophia after David Singh led a shared bowling effort in their Georgetown Cricket Association (GCA) Panthers Security 2nd Division T20 fixture at the GNIC Ground on Saturday.

Set 85 to win, Mystic Marvels reached 85 for two, with Nickozi St. Hilaire striking 34 from 15 balls and Trevayne Mohabir finishing unbeaten on 25 from 11 deliveries.

St. Hilaire hit six fours and scored at a strike rate of 226.67, giving the chase early momentum. Martimah Headley contributed 22 from 25 balls, while Mohabir struck four fours and a six to help seal the result.

Earlier, Sophia won the toss and chose to bat but were dismissed for 84 in 19 overs as seven Mystic Marvels bowlers took wickets.

Singh returned the best figures of three for 19 from four overs, while Terrence King claimed two for 20. Mohabir, Nyles Liverpool, Avinash Bhandoo, Anthony Fredericks and Reeaz Mohamed took one wicket each.

Tyriq Walters led Sophia’s batting with 23, followed by Malcolm Morris with 16 and Mikail Thomas with 15. Regular wickets kept Sophia from building momentum, leaving Mystic Marvels with a target they reached comfortably.
