Four-Day practice: Half-centuries for Savory and Ramsammy on another run-fest day

From a batting perspective, the management of the Guyana Harpy Eagles should be pleased.

After two days of play and 171 overs, 791 runs have been scored in the Four-Day practice match ahead of the upcoming Regional season.

After hundreds from all-rounders Junior Sinclair and Ronaldo Alimohamed on day one, Kemol Savory and Zeynul Ramsammy got close to emulating such with fluent half-centuries.

Ramsammy, a young prospect, made 75 (8x4s; 2x6s) from 148 balls, while Savory, who is expected to play a key role with the bat, got a boost of confidence with an unbeaten 76 after he ran out of partners.

The Harpy Eagles player struck seven fours and three sixes from the 103 balls he faced. In the previous match, he scored 89 and 48.

Brandon Jaikaran (33) and Antony Adams (25) also got some starts, while Raymond Perez would want a confidence-boosting innings in the second innings after falling for just 19.

Young left-spinner Riyad Latiff got 3-53, Junior Sinclair took 2-38, and Veerasammy Permaul 2-48.

Day three is scheduled to commence at 09:30h.

The first Regional Four-Day match is scheduled for January 29 as the Harpy Eagles host Barbados Pride at the National Stadium.
