Needing a win to secure a spot in the Nagico Super50 semi-final round, Barbados knocked off previously undefeated Trinidad & Tobago by three wickets on Sunday at Queen's Park Oval. Barbados sent the hosts in and held them to 226 thanks in large part to captain Jason Holder's 4 for 35.

Only three batsmen reached double digits for T&T, but each made an important contribution. Foremost among them was Darren Bravo who top scored with 82 after coming back into the lineup for the first time in the tournament since returning from the Test tour of Australia. He received quality support from Kjorn Ottley, who made 38, but more significantly Denesh Ramdin, whose 57 was part of an 89-run fifth-wicket stand with Bravo.

Though no one reached 50 for Barbados in reply, every member of the top seven contributed a double-figure score. Kraigg Brathwaite was the best of the lot with 48 off 87 balls as he teamed with Shai Hope for a methodical 62-run second-wicket stand to get the chase going in the right direction.

Steven Jacobs 15 from 3 Deliveries, 2x4 1x6=15. I wonder who's the scorer? lol

It was good to see competitive games in the final round of this tournament, also the international players represented themselves sort of, however I was not impressed by Hope's and Blackwood's performances, after a month in Australia playing top class cricket, they should have done better.
