BARBADOS PRIDE maintained their unbeaten run in the WICB Regional Super50 Tournament after crushing ICC Americas by 171 runs at the Windward Club today.
After scoring a challenging 282 for nine from their 50 overs, Barbados Pride restricted the development side to 111 in 33.4 overs to complete their fifth successive victory.
The hosts’ total revolved around opener Kraigg Brathwaite’s 108 off 134 balls and his half-century partnerships with Shai Hope (27), Jonathan Carter (57) and Roston Chase (40).
It was Brathwaite’s second century of the tournament following his 101 against Guyana Jaguars.
Barbados Pride made immediate inroads into ICC Americas’ response, reducing them to seven for three and later 39 for six.
The visitors, however, prevented a complete slump through the efforts of Tim Allen (36) and Alex Amsterdam (30).
Captain Jason Holder, who grabbed three for 25 from ten overs, and fellow pacer Kemar Roach, who took two for 22, undermined ICC America’s response. (HG)
