Nice consolidating from the two senior batsmen: Captain Johnson and Vishaul Singh.

They've added 30 for the 4th wicket.

92/3

Trailed by 266
 
Good move by the Scorpions captain, Palmer to introduce Jerome Taylor back into the attack. These two batsmen looked too comfortable against the spin of Kenroy Williams and Bulli

Singh on 34
Johnson on 42
 
TT has got Barbados Pride in a spot of bother. Replying to TT's 1st innings total of 358, Barbados are 126/5.

They've just lost Kevin Stoute.
Shamar Spring is at the crease with Nicholas Kirton; both batsmen on 0

Yannic Cariah with 3 wickets; Ravi Rampaul and Daniel Saint Claire with one a piece.
 
Not a bad session for Guyana at tea. They lost Sherfane Rutherford just after lunch. And since then it has been all Johnson-Singh. The partnership is 75.

Jaguars are 137/3. Trails Scorpion by 221 runs.
 
Quite a feat to get so close to Jamaica's first innings total; at one stage we were 253/7, we ended up on 321/10, 37 runs in arrears.

Could have been a better score if Leon Johnson and Vishaul Singh didn't fail to convert good starts into 3-figure scores.

As of now, I think it's a good and balanced game. No one is running away just yet.

This FC season is just exciting. I love how the teams are not letting Guyana boss them.

TT's resurgence is welcoming.
Yep it has been enjoyable. Ambris is an interesting one because he bosses FC, A team and warm up cricket all the time but stinks up the place in tests. I'd have thought he was worth keeping around the team on any tours. He should definitely be in the squad ahead of Brooks.

He hasn't had a home series yet though has he? Every player should get a chance to bat a home before being discarded imo

Absolutely should be in front of Brookes. He's in form.

And our boy Devon Smith once again leading the batting aggregates

Montcin Hodge as well. We need more batsmen hitting centuries in the competition; big ones at that.

Rakheem will continue to impress.
I'm delighted to see Motie-Kanhai among the wickets. His average this year is the best by a Jaguars bowler (15.50).

I was surprised by that Jaguars win. How about that Barbados win? That was a brilliant run chase, Jonathan Carter in OD mode

I just know we haven't seen the last of Devon Smith in Test cricket. Depressing stuff


Think you have....Brathwaite and Campbell compliment each other well at the top of the order, and their partnerships are getting the side off to a good start...i know rough patches will come, but encouraging signs from them.

Agree that the current opening partnership should be persistent with the current opening partnership, but never underestimate the ability of the Windies selectors to do something daft.

Devon is the Mark Ramprakash of West Indies cricket. Let's just admire his ability to destroy bowlers in FC cricket, A team cricket and tour warm ups. Test cricket just wasn't meant to be for some reason.
