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.

Did you go to any matches, Googs?

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.

Unfortunately I could not make it this year. My friend went and reported that of all the years this year has been the best organized so far. In fact, he said it was so much better than the WI vs Bangla game.Did you go to any matches, Googs?
What a surprise!
