With one day to go, defending champs Jamaica were struggling on 133-3, still 220 runs behind the CCC in a battle for first innings points. The hosts lost leading run-getter Marlon Samuels for 13, as well as openers Hyatt (53) and Jackson (25), while the not out batsmen are Nash (14) and Lambert (12). McClean, Austin and Kantasingh have all taken a wicket so far....
Chasing 183 for victory, Trinidad were reeling on 75-5 at stumps, having lost Simmons (16), Darren Ganga (14), Ramdin (0) and Imran Khan (1). Sherwin Ganga is 35 not out, and with him is Emrit on one, while the main destroyer for the Leewards to date has been Martin with three wickets, while Athanaze has taken two. Of course, Trinidad are without Morton, who remains in jail with Willett.
Rain continues to ravage Guyana, but the Lions are making heavy weather of chasing the hosts' first innings total, limping to 68-3 at stumps, having lost Kieswetter (25), Lyth (18), and Stokes (1). The not out batsmen are Gale (4) and Bairstow (15), while Fudadin has taken two wickets so far.
The Windwards collapsed from 309-5 to 350 all out, but still gained a nine-run first innings lead over Barbados. Fidel Edwards signalled a welcome return to form, taking 5-77, while there were three wickets for Best and two for Collins. Barbados were eight without loss at stumps.

trying to keep a keen eye on the keeping situation...
Ramdins batting is still not where it shud be. he shud be doing much better against dung heap bowling.
as a player Devon thomas attitude looks in great need of sharpening up. he appears to be half decent as a keeper but his batting, his approach to batting has looked awful to date.
kyle Corbins' batting stats have looked most impressive and I am keen to hear about his keeping ability
Simmons shud have been the keeper for the ODi side in effort to shore up westindies tail. yet I have less and less confidence in his batting abilities as he is having a mediocre dung heap.
at the same time ADS Fletcher is having an excellent dung heap although he is not keeping wickets. I am looking at dat kid and hoping that these tons he is scoring now is no flash in the pan...a one good year, peaking thing!
