Scorecard
Leeward Islands made it to the finals of the Carib Beer Cup after drawing their game with Guyana in Essequibo. They will now face Jamaica in the title clash. Leewards managed 383 as Ridley Jacobs ran up a half-century with the lower order for company. He was finally done in by Mahendra Nagamootoo, who claimed 4 for 73. Guyana had required an outright victory to leapfrog Leewards in the points table and face Jamaica in the finals, but rain on the final day extinguished their hopes. Guyana ended the day on 131 for 3.
