In a showcase match at Caterham's luxurious Park Avenue Ground a select Toronto Mayor's XI thoroughly put Caterham to the sword.

All the players, aged between 18 and 24, were more than up for the fight and eager to show off their ability.

Nearly all were playing on grass for the first time.

Ramsamy, opening the batting, quickly dispatched March (1-22) all over the park, continuing to bat throughout the innings for a patient, but volatile, 46.

Bakhtar (22), Rajroop (26) and Kotak (14) all added quick-fire knocks to rattle the score along to 140 from their allotted 20 overs.

In reply, Caterham's dangerous opening pair of Wilson (9) and March (16) were back in the hut by an unplayable display of quick bowling by Pathan (1-6).

Despite the best efforts of Congdon (12) and Bullen (24), and brief cameos from Varley (10) and Dunt (12), Caterham could never recover from their slow start and finished 32 runs behind on 108-7.
