Rain interrupted play in Panama’s league during the month but it did not stop the juniors who used the time to get some valuable practice in to improve their skills. Panama hosted six teams from the USA with the much travelled Houston Cricket Club (also visiting Mexico) being the eventual winners of the tournament.
In local competition a new club – Alianza Cricket Club – has shown surprising strength winning their first three games. The club’s success was due to good bowling performances by Ibrajim Boda, Tariq Daya and Irfan Tarajia. Their major success was a victory over last year’s champion Dada Bhai Cricket Club.
Selection has begun for Panama’s national team to ICC Americas Division 2 tournament in Suriname next month.
I am pleased to see that cricket in Panama continues to develop solidly. It is also good to see that Dada Bhai Cricket Club is still the team to beat. If anyone has information on Trio or Paraiso players Mike, Ronnie, and Jimmy Thompson please post or pass along my email address
