AN explosive 46-ball century from Hong Kong-born Sri Lankan Riaz Farcy steered Little Sai Wan to an emphatic nine-wicket Hong Kong Sunday League victory over Wanderers at Mission Road yesterday.
The burly Farcy, in line for a call-up to Hong Kong's ICC World Cup squad in Kenya next year, smashed 15 boundaries and four sixes in a power-packed innings of 103 not out to help his team to their first victory of the new season.
With Sai Wan chasing Wanderers' 233 all out, Farcy, who batted at number three, hit a six over long-on off Peter Olsen's bowling for the winning runs.
Mike Peck top-scored for Wanderers, who were all out in the 54th over.
Farcy was one of three bowlers who got a pair of wickets in the match. The others were Mahana Marzook and Nick Waters.
Off-spinner Lal Jayasinghe, coach of the all-Chinese Hong Kong Dragons team, went one better, taking three wickets for 44 runs.
