Jamaica Franchise Continue Freefall In WICB PCL

Captain Devon Thomas agonisingly missed out on three figures as bottom-of-the-table Leeward Islands Hurricanes broke their eight-game losing slump to beat Jamaica Franchise by four wickets yesterday.

Resuming the final day of their ninth-round West Indies Cricket Board (WICB) Professional Cricket League (PCL) contest on 139 for six and requiring only a further 26 for victory, the Leewards needed just 45 balls to complete victory at Warner Park.

Fittingly, they were led by their captain Devon Thomas, who finished on 99 not out, narrowly falling short of his second first-class century.
