Jamaica Scorpions survive late scare to earn draw against Barbados Pride

Wed, Apr 22, '26 at 7:17 PM

Barbados took a conservative approach on the final day at Sabina Park 


Jamaica 457 & 90 for 4 (Campbell 42*, Brown 13; Layne 2-15) draw with Barbados 626 for 8 dec. (Brathwaite 176, Wickham 105; Peat Salmon 4-147) 


The Jamaica Scorpions survived a late scare to earn a draw against the Barbados Pride in the second contest of their West Indies Regional 4-Day Championship bilateral series at Sabina Park on Wednesday. 


The Pride, who began the day on 460 for five, batted for two sessions on the final day, amassing 626 for eight before declaring 25 minutes ahead of Tea, with a lead of 169 runs. 


Kyle Mayers added 68 to his overnight 16 before falling for 84. Johann Layne (43*) and Shamar Springer (36) then shared in a brisk 74-run eighth-wicket stand before the latter’s wicket triggered a declaration after 154.3 overs.

Natty, all we want is a pitch that can help the bowlers who have toiled for 2 games.

On a serious note, how the points go?

Well, if Trinidad wins their next match, they will be in the next round regardless of what Jamaica and Barbados do.

@natty_forever

It will depend on the bonus points, Guyana and Trinidad had emphatic wins so the look like the two teams to advance at the moment. Both matches Jamaica lost first innings points to B/dos
