BARBADIAN ROSTON CHASE was the headline act in Jamaica yesterday. He scored a maiden Test ton and helped the West Indies pull off an improbable draw against world No.2 India at Sabina Park.

 Chase, 24, made a splendid unbeaten 137, leading the fightback in tandem with fellow Barbadians Shane Dowrich (74), skipper Jason Holder (64 not out) and Jamaican Jermaine Blackwood (63), with the West Indies finishing the final day at 388 for six after being 48 for four at one stage.
