July 23, 2011.
After the toss rested in Cayman Islands’ favour, they elected to put the Argentinean side into bat to ensure the best use of the bowling track.
For the http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Cayman-Islands-c2867, right from the commencement of the competition, proceedings progressed according to the plan as they convincingly dominated the Argentinean batting fire-power.

dismissed at the hands of http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Troy-Taylor-c94436.

wicket.
After the demise of top two batsmen’s of the Argentinean side, the Cayman Islands seemed to be in the driving seat. http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Gary-Savage-c58562 succeeded Precious, who departed after contributing only 1 run to the team total.
