Leeward Islands Hurricanes need a further 62 runs for victory with nine wickets intact on a pitch that still seems good for batting at the National Stadium, Providence. The experienced Kieran Powell (47*) is still in the middle alongside Keacy Carty (17*) as Larry Auddain (12) was the lone man to fall to Kevin Sinclair in the chase of 143. At this point, Guyana would hope Barbados Pride defeats Windward Islands Volcanoes, or at minimum, that match ends in a draw. Before the start to round five, Volcanoes trailed Harpy Eagles by 10.2 points, but with 12 points for a victory plus the additional points on offer, they are well within reach of winning the title should they beat Pride and Eagles lose. Meanwhile, the Eagles started the day 48-1 and were bowled out for 267, a vast improvement from 122 in the first innings. They were 99-5, still not clearing the 125-run deficit until the lower-order, anchored by Kemol Savory (66*) and Veerasammy Permaul (65), got them to the respectable total. Rahkeem Cornwall was the main destroyer with 4-58 while Jeremiah Louis took 3-66. Play resumes Saturday at 09:30h and upon its conclusion, there will be a ceremony in honour of Leon Johnson, who retires from national duties after this match.
