Bermuda Under-15s have battled their way through to today's Evening Cricket League Second Division Knockout Cup final in which they face league champions Police at Shelly Bay.

Newcomers to the EL this season, the Under-15s finished third in the league and reached the knockout final by beating second-placed Deloitte in the semi-finals. Police beat Top Shottas in the other semi-final.

The 10 a.m. match will be followed at 2 p.m. by the Premier Division final between league champions Tuff Dogs and perennial contenders The Associates.

Tuff Dogs include six players from Ernst & Young and three from North Village, two Commercial League sides who will meet in the postponed CL Knockout final next Sunday.

Kavitharan Selvarajah, who plays for Ernst & Young and Tuff Dogs, said: "We have played as one bonded unit throughout the season and all team members have backed each other to perform well as a team.

"We will go with all guns firing for one last time in the season and will look to repeat our good performance in the finals and be on top of the game."

Associates' skipper Alistair McNeish said: "We're very much looking forward to the match.

"Tuff Dogs are a good side, playing regularly together in the Commercial League as well as the Evening League.

"However, we've won both the cup and the league twice in the last four years, so hopefully there is some precedent there.

"We're playing pretty well as a unit; at least five of our team have made half-centuries in the Evening League this year and, in Gordon Campbell, Brook Logan and Damion Henderson amongst others, we have some guys who have been in excellent form."

Forties' skipper Campbell and Henderson were both in the team that lost to Ernst & Young in last week's CL Twenty20 League Cup semi-final, highlighted by an unbeaten 67 from Dhammika Weerappuli – not Dhammika Jayalath as reported on Wednesday. Ernst & Young lost the final to Spring Garden Cavaliers by 17 runs.

Umpires for today's matches will be EL organiser Stephen West and Wilbur Pitcher. Prizes will be handed out by the 'Voice of Summer' Jim Woolridge.

Said West: "It is my 25th year running the league. This league is famous for giving out fantastic prizes to the winners. The finals for both divisions will be under the Twenty20 format which we have been using for nine years. It should be a fun day of cricket.
