The Guyana captain, who has been in sublime form, showcased his aggressive intent by blasting an unbeaten 82 runs off just 53 balls, ensuring the target of 139 was chased down in a lightning-fast 16.2 overs at the Lusignan Community Centre Ground on Sunday.
His innings was laced with 12 fours and three sixes.
This dominant batting display came after a fine collective effort by the Guyanese bowlers, who bundled Barbados out for 138 inside 40 overs.
Earlier, Barbados struggled to build sustainable partnerships against a disciplined Guyanese attack.
Only Natarie Lavine provided real resistance, anchoring the innings with a solid 65 off 77 balls, but wickets consistently fell around him.
The damage was spread across the home side’s bowling unit, with Deshawn Ramnauth leading the way with impressive figures of 3 for 21.
Support came from Jasani Craig (2-24) and Adrian Emmanuel (2-26), ensuring Barbados were all out in the 39th over.
In the chase, after a brief opening partnership, Seecharran and vice-captain Sahid Gajnabi took control, replicating their match-winning alliance from the first game.
The pair put together an unbroken 91-run stand off just 59 balls for the second wicket, guiding Guyana home with ease. Gajnabi finished unbeaten on 20.
The series, organised by the Guyana Cricket Board (GCB) with a focus on developing future national talent, will take a break on Monday before resuming with the third match on Tuesday at 10:00h at the Lusignan Community Centre ground.
