The Dolphins evened the series when they beat the Sharks in game 4 of the Grand Turk Cricket Association five match cricket series.
The game was played on Sunday June 3rd, 2012 at the Grand Turk Parade Ground. Batting first the sharks looked set to make a big score with Errion Charles and Leroy King starting of briskly, however with the score at 36 King received a shooter from Zaheer Mohammad which knocked back his stumps. His departure for 24 started the slide of the Sharks who never recovered from there and in the end they could only manage to score 67 for 8.
Charles was the other leading contributor with 31. The sharks were rooted by Henry Saunders who took 3 wickets for two runs from 2 overs; Harry Chandwani 3 for 4 and Mohammad 2 for 25 from 4 overs.
In their reply it took the sharks 8 overs to score the required runs. Earl Henry top scored with 35 not out, Sidney Garland 10 and Henry Saunders 12 with two towering sixes. Final score was 68 for 2.
Both teams have won two games and the series will end with the final game to be played on Tuesday June 5th at the same venue.
