Kyle Mayers continued to torment Windward Islands Volcanoes and in the process helped put Barbados Pride in a strong position to defeat them when the sixth-round battle in the West Indies Championship continued yesterday at Kensington Oval.

Mayers hit a pugnacious undefeated half century that enabled Barbados to declare at 239 for four, setting the Volcanoes a target of 399 to win.

They closed on 73 for three with Devon Smith not out on 16 and Alick Athanaze on 21.

The Pride scored 417 in their first innings and dismissed the Volcanoes for 258. (PH)
