GREENLAND, Tortola, VI – Cricket fans at Greenland Playfield were treated to an electrifying day of action in the BVI Cricket Association's (BVICA) T20 tournament on Sunday, March 16, 2025, as Cavaliers CC and RTW Falcons registered emphatic victories over Police CC and Royal Knights, respectively.

While the Cavaliers delivered a crushing 97-run win, the Falcons pulled off a four-wicket chase to cap off an exciting double-header.

Cavaliers crush Police by 97 Runs

Cavaliers CC were at their explosive best in the morning fixture, amassing a mammoth 291 for 5 in 20 overs. Aaron Baker stole the show with a blistering 95 off just 44 balls, hammering 9 fours and 7 sixes. He was well-supported by Gavin Hitnarine (59 off 27) and Jagnarine Persaud (79 off 41) as the Cavaliers punished the Police CC bowlers.

Despite some early breakthroughs by Jamal Mickle (2/54) and Yohann Lezama (2/54), Police CC had no answers to the Cavaliers’ relentless batting assault.

In response, Police CC managed 194 for 5, with Shem Stay (45 off 27) and Jason Bobb-Semple (44 off 21) offering resistance. However, Vishal Bharat (3/22) led a disciplined bowling effort that ensured Cavaliers CC cruised to a commanding 97-run win.

RTW Falcons chase 181 to edge Royal Knights

In the afternoon clash, RTW Falcons stunned Royal Knights with a superb run chase, overhauling 181 all out with 11 balls to spare.

Batting first, the Knights rode on Loy Squires’ steady 51 off 40 balls and Keion De Jesus’ quickfire 34 off 17. Richard Francis (29 off 14) added some late fireworks, but Turby Xavier (4/28) led a disciplined Falcons’ bowling attack to keep them in check.

Chasing 182, RTW Falcons lost early wickets but found their hero in Austin McDowall, who played a match-winning knock of 63 off just 24 balls, smashing 7 sixes. Damron Prince (49 off 32) and Gary Prince (27 off 18) provided key contributions before McDowall’s late assault sealed the win.

Despite a valiant effort from Reno Mettleholzer (3/37), the Knights couldn’t prevent the Falcons from reaching 187 for 6 in 18.1 overs, securing a four-wicket victory.
