West Indies Championship - The Final Round

Updates from the seventh and final round of this year's competition...

CCC 52/4 vs Guyana

Leewards 64/3 vs Windwards (M.Louis 32*)

Barbados 39/2 vs WI Academy

T&T 25/0 vs Jamaica

Why isnt the Force picking Cariah?? That bowling looks a little thin if they have to get 20 wickets in the match to try to grab a top three spot

Scores update...

CCC 180/9 (N.Smith 3/42) vs Guyana

Leewards 200/4 (M.Louis 94*, J.Andrew 56*) vs Windwards

Barbados 155 all out vs WI Academy

T&T 148/4 (A.Jangoo 31*, J.DaSilva 27*) vs Jamaica

Bim bowled out fi 155 by di Academy

As we approach the close of day one in the final round, here is another update of how the scores currently stand:

Guyana 43/0 vs CCC 200 all out

Leewards 252/7 vs Windwards (another century for Mikyle Louis)

T&T 198/5 vs Jamaica

WI Academy 20/1 vs Barbados 155

the academy team a lot of their players have not taken that step forward this season in the batting like teddy bishop nyeem young and the ccc i dont see the purpose of it other than being the whipping boys of west indies cricke

Anyone has updated scores? WI website is not being updated.

Guyana 114-1 at cop
looks like Guyana going for as many batting points...
if they can get at least 1 batting point and win the game they will have overtaken Barbados for 2nd place...even if Barbados wins...
i am assuming Barbados will earn maximum bowling points against the A team and win the match

tc1 Way yuh dey come een uno see Bim meet dey match.

Congrats Mikyle and Josh on your centuries.

Well done

In reply to imusic

Can I assume it's Josh da Silva,it seems a difficult job to get TT scores,ah well tek wah yuh get when yuh not proper Caribbean.

Da Silva 106 well done ma boy but again Jangoo is in the runs he made 51 after the last match where he scored 218 runs in both innings,why no talk about him and n
an A team selection,I wish him all the luck because he has as much talent as a batsman as any in the Caribbean.I hope he won't be another Dinas.TT308 for 7.

This argument sounds a lot like the Indian argument that WI shoudl not be playing test cricket

Congrats Avinash Mahabirsingh. 5 fer (so far) against Guyana

they need another 100...

looking at Salmon bowl for the first time. He spins the ball quite a lot! I quite like what I see. Who is this Mahabirsingh who is running through the mighty Guyana??

In reply to doosra
Come on Guyana

In reply to PalsofMine

Avinash Mahabirsingh...off spinner...he turned 23 yesterday, played for WI U19s in 2019/20 but nothing of note since, until today.

He took 8/51...after chipping in with a useful 23 batting at number eight in CC&C first inns.

Quite the first class debut by the youngster!

In reply to 4REALQUICKS

Nicely done, youngster. Need to
do even more in second innings

TT 432 Jamaica 116 for 6

In reply to granite

Bim will be going for the win, remember they don't play draw cricket.

In reply to PalsofMine

Those teams belong it a development league, not 1st class cricket, you can distribute 12 of the best among the 6 regional teams and get better results.

We are the lone international team that allows developmental teams in 1st class competition, having these teams further dilutes your already weak competition.

COP scores?

In reply to tc1

What CWI is doing is widening the pool of players with FC experience. If you write off these teams and pick 12 of their best, you still have the problem that only 11 players at a time can play so inevitably you end up with players wirh less experience. The reason why we need the extra teams is that otherwise we end up with only 5 matches in the season per team due to the limited size of the region. What we should be doing is saying that CCC and WIA can be allowed up to 2 players per match who are professionals either from another island or from abroad with a view to assisting the young players.
