Come on Beckles
LEONARDO Julien showed his quality with an unbeaten half-century on the opening day of a three-day TT Red Force trial match at the National Cricket Center in Balmain, Couva on Monday.
Julien, a former West Indies U-19 player, finished the day with 52 as Imran Khan XI closed at 156/4 in 58 overs after rain hampered a full day’s cricket. The left-handed Julien hit five fours in his 117-ball knock.
The experienced duo of Jason Mohammed and Khan scored 38 and 30 not out respectively. Mohammed hit three fours and a six in his 58-ball innings.
Julien and Khan have already added 77 runs for the fifth wicket.
Bowling for Darren Bravo XI, off spinner Bryan Charles grabbed 2/36 in 12 overs.
The Red Force is gearing up for the 2023 West Indies Four-Day Cricket Championship.
