West Indies and Barbados Pride captain Kraigg Brathwaite has commended both his team and the Jamaica Scorpions for a hard-fought match in the recently concluded West Indies Championship third-round clash which ended on Saturday at Sabina Park.

Brathwaite’s team came away with a four-wicket win late on Saturday’s final day, and the contest was one of the few matches that went the distance in the first phase of the competition.

“I am very happy to see the game going all four days. This is the sort of competition you want, as it will make our players better,” said Brathwaite.

Previously, neither the Jamaica Scorpions nor the Barbados Pride had taken their games into the fourth day. The Scorpions lost to the Windward Islands Volcanoes and beat the Combined Campuses and Colleges (CCC) inside three days, while the Pride took care of the CCC and lost to the Volcanoes on the third day of those fixtures.

When you take your last breath - Paint will be the person you'll still be thinking about.

Maybe should consider adding India A or B and England A or B to the tournament to make it more competitive.

You want Brathwaite to go mute again? Dem teams will be way too “competitive” for him.

He needs the Salmon’s and the Bryan’s and the Green’s dem to be “competitive”

Epitaph to a painter and his stalker

Look, if yuh get licks in 3 days, so be it...yuh just was not good enough

I wonder what the heck he would say if Jamaica had won on day four.
So far I like the competition except that long break drag to give the impression that the tournament is long. I don’t think that’s how our first class teams should compete since a test series is usually longer. Instead of dragging the competition it would have been better to have another 5 or 6 game competition after a two or three week break
