And at the semi final stage, in an all North Leeward clash, Ajuba had to settle for second fiddle against their counterparts. Ajuba scored 67 for 3 in their six overs, but Mr Cool reached that total for the loss of one wicket.

P’tani on the other hand beat Dasent Cottage in the preliminary round to advance to the quarter final stage, then scored 38 for 3, responding to Central Leeward’s 37 for 4, to set up a semi final meeting with Sion Hill.

P’tani humbled Sion Hill by 31 runs. P’tani made 64 for 4. Sion Hill crawled to 33 for 4 in their allotment of six overs.
