Video: Bermuda Cricket Team Defeat Denmark

[Updated with video] The Bermuda National Cricket team recorded a 38-run win over Denmark at the ICC WCL Division 4 tournament taking place in Los Angeles.

The ICC match report said, “An inspired bowling performance from Jordan DeSilva [4 for 23] guided Bermuda to a 38-run win over Denmark at the Wong Cricket Field in Woodley Park. This was Bermuda’s first win in three games.

“Asked to bat, Bermuda reached 221 for 7 from 50 overs after clinical bowling efforts from Saif Ahmed [2 for 45], Bashir Shah [2 for 46] and Hamid Shah [2 for 37].

“In response, Denmark, which had won back-to-back matches coming into this game, found Bermuda’s bowling too hot to handle as it was bowled out for 183 from 48.1 overs.

“Bermuda had Oliver Pitcher [31 from 63 balls], Delray Rawlins [39 from 62 balls], Dion Stovell [38 from 52 balls] and DeSilva [33 not out from 38 balls] contribute, but the lack of big individual scores and consistent partnerships meant a modest but competitive total.

“Denmark, which was on top of its batting game in the first two games, was waylaid in the run chase courtesy DeSilva’s left-arm pace early on.

“Cejay Outerbridge [2 for 22] too played a massive role by picking up two top-order wickets in the same over, but it was Janeiro Tucker’s three-wicket burst that truly stamped Bermuda’s authority in the contest.

“DeSilva then returned to bag a couple more, including the important one of Yasir Iqbal [39 from 43 balls] to bring an end to the contest.”
