Cricket West Indies has reported that CT scans for Leeward Islands Hurricanes’ Jeremiah Louis returned clear results. Louis was struck on the helmet while batting on Tuesday, the third day of the second contest against the Trinidad and Tobago Red Force in the 2026 West Indies Championship.
The delivery that hit Louis proved to be the final ball of the game, as play was abandoned as a draw due to dangerous pitch conditions at the Sir Viv Richards Stadium in Antigua and Barbuda.
The 30-year-old was discharged from the hospital on Tuesday evening into the care of the Leeward Islands Hurricanes medical team, who will remain in communication with Cricket West Indies.
CWI stated that Louis will be monitored “closely over the next 48 hours (Wednesday to Thursday).”
A further assessment will be carried out before the squad is announced for the next match scheduled to begin at the Antigua Recreation Ground on Sunday.

Scorpions' Kirk McKenzie & John Campbell
The Jamaica Scorpions survived a late scare to earn a draw against the Barbados Pride in the second contest of their West Indies Regional 4-Day Championship bilateral series at Sabina Park on Wednesday.
The Pride, who began the day on 460 for five, batted for two sessions on the final day, amassing 626 for eight before declaring 25 minutes ahead of Tea, with a lead of 169 runs.
Kyle Mayers added 68 to his overnight 16 before falling for 84. Johann Layne (43*) and Shamar Springer (36) then shared in a brisk 74-run eighth-wicket stand before the latter’s wicket triggered a declaration after 154.3 overs.
Peat Salmon (4/147) was the pick of the Scorpions bowlers, as Odean Smith claimed figures of 2 for 90.
Seeking to avoid defeat, the Jamaicans lost one wicket before the interval and were quickly restricted to 46 for 4 upon the resumption.
Still, amidst dropped chances, close appeals, and an extra half an hour of play, a 131-ball, 44-run partnership between a hobbling John Campbell (42*) and Romaine Morrison (5*) saw the Jamaicans to a draw at 90 for 4 in 39.4 overs.

Kenneth Dember’s 4 for 113 was the highlight of the Volcanoes’ bowling as Shadrack Descarte finished with figures of 2 for 67.
The fight to make the Harpy Eagles bat again turned out to be a lone act by Ackeem Auguste (91), who fell agonizingly short of a century for the second time this season.
Gudakesh Motie (5/51) led the destruction via spin to help dismiss the Windwards for 199 in 48.3 overs. Veerasammy Permaul also impressed, claiming 4 for 20.

Cricket West Indies (CWI) has announced that the second match between the Leeward Islands Hurricanes and the Trinidad and Tobago Red Force in the 2026 West Indies Championship has been abandoned as a draw due to dangerous pitch conditions at the Sir Viv Richards Stadium in Antigua and Barbuda.
A statement from CWI explained that play was halted in the first session of Tuesday’s third day “after the pitch began to exhibit unpredictable and uneven behaviour, raising serious concerns for player safety.”
Facing up to the pace of Jayden Seales, Leeward Islands player Jeremiah Louis was struck on the helmet while batting.
He was “immediately attended to by medical personnel and subsequently transported to hospital to be evaluated for a possible concussion and is reported to be in stable condition,” the statement continued.
