Haydn Gill13-Aug-2001It hasn’t taken long for Ryan Hinds to demonstrate the benefits fromthe Shell Cricket Academy of St George’s University.His left-arm spin earned him six wickets on Saturday, but moreimportantly, his maiden Division 1 hundred yesterday transformed ashaky ESA Field Pickwick overnight position into an honourable draw.Hinds went the first thing yesterday morning when Pickwick were stilltrailing by 99, with eight second innings wickets in hand.By the close, he was still to be conquered by a Banks team thatthoroughly dominated the opening day.His unbeaten 151 off 211 balls included 11 fours and five sixes,mainly straight and mainly of the first innings destroyer AndersonSealy.I am relieved. I thought that I was disciplined. I have to thank myteammates for the support and also belief in God, Hinds said.I don’t like to lose. I had to come out and fight. Playing against(Winston) Reid and Anderson is hard. I just had to be positive andbelieve in myself.The support from his teammates came from wicketkeeper Rondell Yearwood(34), with whom he added 103 for the fourth wicket, and captain MikeMatthews, whose contribution was 31 in a fifth-wicket stand of 87.Hinds might have had the luck of three chances to wicketkeeper WayneRueben on 51, 91 and 105, but that should not take away from hiseffort.
