The Leeward Islands Hurricanes are protesting after losing to Jamaica Franchise by four wickets in the fourth round of the WICB Professional Cricket league at Sabina Park yesterday.

Coach Ridley Jacobs has complained that Hurricanes lost the match because the ball was changed on the third afternoon of the match.
Reports suggest that the ball went missing during the tea interval and another ball was unknowingly used in its place for the start of Sunday's final session.

Jacobs says the umpires misplaced the ball and came with a different ball and that changed the complexion of the game.
