Lil Bravo seems happier in TKR than in the West Indies team....

They've finally done it!

At last, St Lucia broke their 15-match losing streak, when they beat Barbados by 38 at Beausejour. Captain Kieron Pollard hammered 104 from just 54 balls, including six fours and eight sixes, to lead the hosts to 226-6. Pollard received support from Andre Fletcher, who slammed 80 from 52, while pacer Wahab Riaz took 3-35.

Despite a knock of 58 from 45 from Dwayne Smith, there was not much else, as Obed McCoy took 3-28 to restrict Barbados to 188-6.

Don't even know how I'd go about proving this but surely SLS must be the worst performing T20 franchise of all time.

And it gets worse....

St Kitts crushed St Lucia by seven wickets with over 12 overs to spare at Gros Islet.

Left arm pacer Sheldon Cottrell took 3-14, and he supported by spinners Sandeep Lamichanne (2-13) and Mahmudullah (2-20) as they skittled St Lucia out for an embarrassing 69 all out, Qaid Ahmed topscoring with 24.

Makeshift opener Devon Thomas then struck 38 not out from 21 balls as St Kitts made easy work of chasing down the paltry target.

Of all the celebrations done by bowlers, I liked the celebration of Qais Ahmad . Front flip was the best. Side kick in air was athletic as well to some extent.

For me it's Sheldon Cottrell's salute.

Jamaica ended their unhappy, winless home run at Florida, when they lost a close match by two runs to Barbados.

Steve Smith hit 63 from 44, and Shai Hope 43 from 35, to take Barbados to 156-6. Pacer Andre Russell took 2-32.

Despite knocks of 42 from 32 from Johnson Charles, and 36 from 24 from Glenn Phillips, Jamaica ended up on 154-3, inexplicably losing with wickets in hand as Ross Taylor and David Miller were left not out in the 20s. Smith took 2-19.

At Kensington Oval, seven-foot left arm pacer Mohammed Irfan of Pakistan returned the astounding world record figures of four overs two wickets and one run, only to see his Barbados Tridents lose to St Kitts by six wickets with an over to spare.

Captain Jason Holder struck 54 from 35 to take Barbados to 147-6, against Anton Devcich (2-25) and Ben Cutting (2-18). Despite posting a modest score, Irfan appeared to have put the hosts in a winning position with his outstanding spell, but then Brandon King struck 60 from 49 in a bizarre innings of two halves, supported by a run-a-ball 32 from Devon Thomas.
