CRICKET: Three centuries and a six-wicket haul highlighted yesterday's opening day of the two-day Sunlight Cup semi-finals at St. Catherine and Melbourne Park.

Scoring centuries were Bevan Brown and Joseph Pinnock of St. Catherine and Sean Cousley of Kingston College, while Jermaine Lawson of Waterford bagged six wickets.

At Melbourne Park: Cousley scored 112 to pilot KC to 315. He got good support from Kemar Duncan 41, Merrick Watson 49 and Shane Brooks 31. Cousley's 112 came from 143 balls and included 10 boundaries. Lawson took six for 77 off 27.2 overs.

Cousley's only blemish came when he was dropped by Waterford's captain Royan Smith while on 98. He shared in three half century stands with Kemar Duncan (41), Merrick Watson (49) and Shane Brooks (31).

At St. Catherine High: Bevan Brown and captain Joseph Pinnock put the St. Andrew Technical bowlers to the sword, scoring 149 and 113 not out respectively as St. Catherine High piled up a massive 385 for four declared.

STATHS were 24 without loss at the close with openers Gregory Thomas and Damion Thomas unbeaten on five and nine respectively.
