Wins for T&T and St Lucia in Women's League
Bridgetown, Barbados, CMC – Rain affected most of the games on the opening day of the WICB Regional Women’s 50-over Competition. In between the showers, reigning champions Trinidad & Tobago made a winning start to the competition, narrowly edging Jamaica by three runs, and former champions St. Lucia posted a solid 95-run victory over Dominica.
In the feature match at the Banks Brewery Ground, T&T defied a fine all-round performance from West Indies Women’s all-rounder Shanel Daley to win. Daley stroked 60, and fellow West Indies Women’s all-rounder Stafanie Taylor made 45, as the Jamaicans, chasing 160 for victory, were restricted to 159 for seven in their allocation of 50 overs. Gaitri Seetahal was the pick of the T&T bowlers with two for 16.
