Sport in brief: December 5, 2023

MEN’S CRICKET: England face West Indies for the second of their three match one-day series at the Viv Richards stadium in Antigua tomorrow evening.

The inexperienced Windies team are one up after captain Shai Hope smashed 109 and Romario Shepherd bludgeoned 48 from 28 balls to lead them to a four wicket win on Sunday. England had finished on 325 all out thanks largely to Harry Brook’s 71.

MEN’S BASKETBALL: London Lions continue their EuroCup campaign this evening with a trip to Reyer Venice.

The Lions have won their last five European games and will move top of Group A with a win as current table-toppers Paris don’t play the Vilnius Wolves until Wednesday.

Gran Canaria, the only team left in the competition with a 100 percent record, take on Aris Thessaloniki in Group B on Thursday night.

MEN’S ICE HOCKEY: The first legs of the Challenge Cup quarter finals get under way this evening with Cardiff at the Braehead Arena to face off against Glasgow and Guildford travelling to last season’s runners-up, Fife.

Guildford captain Brett Ferguson scored twice as they beat the same opposition 2-0 in Sunday night’s Elite League match.

Manchester are up against Sheffield tomorrow and Coventry take on cup-holders Belfast next week.

MEN’S FOOTBALL: Highland League table-toppers Banks O’Dee travel to struggling Keith tomorrow evening looking to extend their lead over second-placed Brechin, who are not in action until their trip to Formartine on Saturday.

Elsewhere tomorrow night bottom-club Strathspey Thistle face Wick Academy, free-scoring Huntly visit Forres Mechanics in new manager Colin Charlesworth’s first game in charge and Lossiemouth host out-of-form Forres Mechanics.
