Justin Athanaze – Player of Semi-final #2

In big games you need your senior players to stand out and Former Leeward Islands Off Spinner Justin Athanaze did just that. The captain opened the bowling for the Empire Nation and put a muzzle over the Tigers mouth from ball one. He created a lot of pressure that caused the Jennings men to lose wickets quickly as they attempted to break from their shackles.

He bowled skillfully as the Tigers batsmen found it hard to pounce on him due to a pitch that was slow and turning rich with moisture beneath the surface. At the end of Jennings innings, they could only muster 162 from 39.5 overs thanks to the heroics of Athanaze and company. He ended with figures of 8 overs 3 maidens 15 runs and 3 wickets. We take this time to wish Justin continued success for the rest of the season.
