The Windwards Islands batted out a rain-marred draw with Guyana after overnight and early morning showers prevented further play before lunch on the final day at the Tanteen Recreation Ground on Sunday.
Junior Murray, the former West Indies wicketkeeper, forged a 56-run fifth-wicket partnership with Darren Sammy (34) before putting on a further 50 with Liam Sebastion (21) as Windwards fought back after the dismissals of Alvin La Feuille (26) and Hyron Shallow (53).
Of the five bowlers used by Guyana, Mahendra Nagamootoo, the former West Indies legspinner, picked up 2 for 71, while Narsingh Deonarine, Imran Jafferally and Ramnaresh Sarwan each took one. Sarwan was awarded the Man-of-the-match award for his first innings 108. Both teams decided to call the match off at 4:30 p.m. Murray remained unbeaten on 39 from 142 deliveries and 155 minutes.
