North Sound, Antigua - Sheldon Cotterell disarmed the Barbados Tridents on Tuesday night to set up a crucial victory for the Antigua Hawksbills, and that’s no pun, seeing Cotterell is part of the Jamaican Defence Force.

Ideally, it was a stern performance from the big man who has been gaining fans along the way. He seemed to have just carried on from the Queen’s Park Oval where he impressed against the T&T Red Steel.
