Cricket: Bermuda Defeat Jersey By 85 Runs
The Bermuda National Cricket team recorded their second victory at the ICC WCL Division 4 tournament taking place in Los Angeles with an 85-run over Jersey,
The ICC match report said, “Kamau Leverock smashed a blistering 137 to set up Bermuda’s 85-run win over Jersey via Duckworth-Lewis Method in their ICC WCL Division 4 contest at Wright Cricket Field in Woodley Park, Los Angeles on Wednesday [November 3].
“Opting to bat first, Bermuda put up a massive 312 for 8 in 45 overs. The game was curtailed after winds brought the sightscreen down in the 15th over of Bermuda’s innings.
“In response, Jersey went after the score but couldn’t keep up with the stiff ask before being bundled out for 227 from 37.2 overs. Cejay Outerbridge was the pick of the bowlers for Bermuda, bagging 5 for 25.

Great victory Bermuda! Also well done on the individual performances by young Cejay Outerbridge who bowled exceptional well and the blistering batting performance of Kamau “Ball Beater” Leverock who played some magnificent shots! I’m proud of the entire team who continue to prove the critics wrong. Clearly we don’t have our strongest team on tour but continue to play as one and finish the tournament on a positive note with a victory. All the best! Blessings
The best part is that you can see the beginnings of a good nucleus that could represent Bermuda for the next 10 years easily. Let’s hope they can continue the good streak against Italy.
Well done you lot. This is Bermudaful
CONGRATULATIONS!!!
Congratulations. keep improving.
Great news, we finally have a great cricket team, well done Bermuda!
