However the Sankar brothers would negotiate them cautiously with singles and occasional boundary struck by inform Debo Sankar including two huge sixes off Trevor Walke, Royo Sankar would later depart for 10. Wahid Ward join Debo Sankar and the pair continue with the required rate, but two crucial run outs would change course giving Everest/ACS the advantage, the first which involved Debo Sankar (47) and Wazid Ward whom depart for 17 and the second between Shameer Sadloo (17) and Deryck McDonald (21).
The Sadloo brothers try to stage a recovery but the veterans of Everest/ACS prove to be too much with their consistence bowling and fielding as the run rate climb to 8 an over. With the departure of both Sadloo brothers and wickets falling regularly the game came to a stage with Richmond Hill needing 24 off the final over which proved to be too much for young Puran and Seepersaud.
