CUB Bethesda Golden Eagles emerged champions of the State Insurance Corporation-sponsored Super 40 Cricket Competition in Bethesda on Sunday, clinching a close contest against Anderson E Carty Empire Nation by six wickets to claim top honours in the grand finale hosted by Antigua and Barbuda Cricket Association (ABCA).
The margin of victory, however, does not tell the full story as Bethesda required seven runs off the final over to win the match after their original target of 207 for victory was revised to 147 off 25 overs after the match was delayed by rain for about 30 minutes just after the start of the home team’s innings.
