Guyana were on the verge of securing their first hold on the regional four-day title since 1998, after totally dominating the penultimate day of the final round of their game in Dominica. First, Chris Barnwell (148) and Shiv Chanderpaul (118) hit centuries to guide Guyana to 427 all out, a lead of 144 on first innings, while offspinner Shane Shillingford took 5-118 for the Windwards. Then, left-arm spinner Veerasammy Permaul took three wickets to reduce the Windwards to 113-6, still needing another 31 runs to make the visitors bat again. Opener Tyrone Theophile has topscored so far with 45 not out.
Second-placed Barbados ground out a 250-run lead at the end of the third day, scoring at only two runs an over in their second innings. First, left-arm spinner Jomel Warrican took 8-72 to dismiss Jamaica for 228, and with a lead of 82 runs on second innings, Barbados looked to be in a good position to pile on the agony. However, Jamaica captain Tamar Lambert's field placings and good use of bowlers meant that the visitors found runs hard to score, and closed on 168-2, led by captain Kraigg Brathwaite's 78 not out from 236 balls, and a knock of 59 from 171 balls from fellow-opener Omar Phillips. Pacer Jason Dawes has taken both wickets so far.
On a day in which 13 wickets fell, legspinner Imran Khan (4-70) and pacer Marlon Richards (3-34) combined to dismiss the Leewards for 277. With a first innings lead of only 14, Trinidad then collapsed to 226 all out in their second innings, Kjorn Ottley topscoring with 80, against part-time spinner Rahkeem Cornwall's 3-77. The Leewards were 34-2 at stumps.
Nobody has a stance quite like the mighty Shivnarine....
