The Leeward Islands finished the league phase of Cricket West Indies’ Women’s T20 Blaze with a perfect record after defeating the Windward Islands by 7 wickets via the Duckworth-Lewis-Stern method in their rain-affected contest on Wednesday.
Leewards’ seamers put on an exhibition of swing bowling under the lights at the Arnos Vale Playing Field in St. Vincent and the Grenadines. They claimed four wickets in nine balls to restrict the Windwards to four for four in 1.5 overs.
The Windwards' top five scored two runs among them, courtesy of three wickets apiece from seamers Shawnisha Hector (3/5) and Jahzara Claxton (3/20). 18 extras was the single largest source of runs in the Windwards’ total of 69 for 9, followed by Abini St Jean’s 16 and 15 from Holly Charles.
