WI Domestic: Browne and Holder in spotlight 3 December 1999
Two magnificent catches by wicketkeeper Courtney Browne added a spark to the final moments of Day 3 of the first Busta Cup trial at Black Rock, yesterday. Browne athletically stretched full-length in front of first slip to collect low offerings off the bowling of seamer Hendy Bryan. The first victim was Roland Holder, out for a well-crafted 114. The second victim, five balls later, was Dave Marshall for a duck. Browne’s brilliance came 20 minutes from the close which saw Floyd Reifer’s XI at 323 for eight as they replied to Philo Wallace’s 157, on a day cut in half by overnight rain. Holder’s dismissal came at 308 as the batsman searched for a drive off Bryan, who showed excellent control in taking three for 39 off 16 overs. He batted five hours and hit 11 fours off 222 balls. Holder dominated a seventh-wicket stand of 97 with Ian Bradshaw, who played patiently and purposefully for his 36 not out off 122 balls. With him at the close is ’keeper Corey Glasgow, with a six and four in 11 not out. Brian Shepherd, with two for 25, also troubled the bats – except for Holder. © The Barbados Nation
