TWO strange stoppages – relating to water and the floodlights – delayed the outcome last night but couldn’t stop Barbados Pride from crashing to their first defeat.
They were stung by Jamaica Scorpions in their day/night WICB Regional Super50 Cup match at Kensington Oval.
The Scorpions duly won easily by 74 runs when Ashley Nurse, after hitting two fours and two sixes in a rearguard 26 off 24 balls, was last out with Barbados Pride falling for 181 in 40.2 overs, replying to the Scorpions’ respectable total of 255 for eight in their 50 overs.
Occasional off-spinner John Campbell was the Scorpions’ bowling hero, taking four for 43 in his ten overs and was named Man Of The Match. (EZS)
