Teams Jockey for Positions in SKNFA competitions

http://sknfa.com/ #

Published 11 April 2017

The intense schedule of football competitions continue as teams vie to get into the SKNFA Easter Cup

The second round of the SKNFA Premier League was just completed, leaving four teams sitting well and most favoured to compete in the Easter Cup Finals.

Teams that have qualified, based on points accumulated in the second round only, are as follows:

SOL Island Auto Conaree – 20 points from 9 games

RAMS Village Superstars – 19 points from 9 games

HE Garden Hotspurs – 19 points from 9 games

FLOW 4G Cayon Rockets – 17 points from 9 games

These are the four Premier League teams that will compete in the SKNFA Easter Cup Competition from the 13th April. In this competition, No. 1 will play against No. 4, and No. 2 will play No. 3. to determine which teams enter the final of the Easter Cup.

Although Superstars and Hotspurs have the same number of points, Superstars with a better goal average secured the second position.

According to Dexter Tyrell, manager of the SKNFA Secretariat, attention is also being given to the third and final round of the Premier League. As of 14th March, all teams would have played their required matches. The push is now on for every team to get a berth in the Final 4.

“As it is, the teams that are out front would be HE Garden Hotspurs leading the pack with 42 points, followed closely by FLOW 4G Cayon Rockets, with 39 points, and S L Horsford St. Paul’s United now on 38 points,” Tyrell informed.

In the remainder of the points standing:

SOL Island Auto Conaree – 34 points

RAMS Village Superstars – 31

Winners Circle Newtown – 26

ELCO Limited St. Peter’s – 26

United Old Road Jets – 16

Fast Cash SPD United – 15

Delta Petroleum Sandy Point – 3

“The competition, for me, is wide open. It is still open for the first seven teams to have a chance to get into the Final 4. Teams have about eight games to go, and if any team wins all its games, they would accumulate an additional 24 points, but truthfully, it would be fair to say that team Sandy Point has already eliminated itself.”

“I do believe over the next couple of days, you will see some good football.”

Meanwhile, the stage has been reached for what is called ‘The Round of Sixteen” for the 2017 SKNFA – FA Cup Competition – a knock-out competition. Games are being played to get to through the next stages that lead to the SKNFA – FA Cup Finals.

The quarter finals of the FA Cup will be held on the 28th and the 30th of March.

GEORGETOWN, (CMC) – Pakistan defeated West Indies by 74 runs in the second One-Day International of the three-match series at the Guyana National Stadium yesterday.

Pakistan scored 282 for five off 50 overs (Babar Azam 125 not out, Imad Wasim 43 not out, Mohammed Hafeez 32, Sarfraz Ahmed 26; Shannon Gabriel 2-50)

Meanwhile West Indies scraped 208 off 44.5 overs (Jason Holder 68, Ashley Nurse 44; Hasan Ali 5-38, Mohammad Hafeez 2-23)

Babar Azam struck his fifth One-Day International hundred and fourth in five matches against West Indies as Pakistan set the hosts another imposing run chase in the second game of the three-match series yesterday.

Sent in, the visitors tallied 282 for five off their 50 overs, with the right-handed Babar stroking a career-best unbeaten 125 off 132 deliveries at the Guyana National Stadium.

Imad Wasim came at the end to lash an unbeaten 43 off 35 balls, combining with Azam to plunder 84 runs off the last seven overs – in an 89-run, unbroken sixth wicket stand which gave the innings much needed impetus.

Mohammed Hafeez got 32 and captain Sarfraz Ahmed, 26, while fast bowler Shannon Gabriel led the bowlers with two for 50.

Still inspired from their record run chase in Friday’s opener, West Indies started strongly when they removed dangerous openers Ahmed Shezad (5) and Kamran Akmal (21) to leave Pakistan 44 for two in the ninth over.

Gabriel claimed Shezad to a smart leg-side catch by wicketkeeper Shai Hope while Joseph accounted for Akmal in identical fashion.

Azam then paced the innings nicely with three vital partnerships. He put on 69 for the third wicket with Hafeez, added 55 for the fifth with Safraz before his belter at the end with Imad.

All told, Azam struck seven fours and three sixes while the left-handed Imad blasted a pair of four and sixes.
