 Inside the last 19 minutes of the Sports Max zone for this Thursday, we are switching to cricket now as day two action in round four of the West Indies championship concluded across three venues a short while ago, well three countries. We begin our recap at Sabina Park where the Jamaica Scorpions are facing the West Indies Academy team, Riccardo Chambers is on location. Yeah, thank you so much Lance and Mariah. Well, it's been another enthralling day of cricket here at Sabina Park, the West Indies Academy taking on the Jamaica Scorpions yesterday's opening day. We had 344 runs scored and 10 wickets taken today. We have we've seen that 306 runs scored and seven wickets taken and the Jamaica Scorpions have batted out an entire day for the first time this campaign, so they will be relatively pleased about that. Let's tell you about the situation of this game. The Jamaica Scorpions resumed their first innings on 20 without loss. Carlos Brown and Kurt McKenzie both on 10 in response to the 324 made by the West Indies Academy in their first innings and the Scorpions getting to 326 for seven at the close of day two. They lead by two runs. They have been led by the captain, Brandon King, who top scored with 77 from 132 deliveries. We'll tell you more about his innings later. Leroy Lug had a well played 64 and then Pete Salmon with some amount of attritional agility getting some 55 none out, made that 60 not out from 157 deliveries and bowling for the West Indies Academy. There was a 3485 for Joshua Bischoff. He bowled 27 overs today in tandem with Ashmead Ned who bowled 28 overs and had won 466 to close the day. Let's quickly get in a word from Joshua Bischoff who had three wickets and three very key wickets as well, including Brandon King and Leroy Lug. He also had Abhije Mansing who is a dangerous customer and Joshua first of all taught me through your performance today and just how tough it was out there for the bowlers. Well it was very tough today. Leroy Lug played a very good innings, Brandon King as well and Pete Salmon at the end so we just had to stick to our plans and just fight it out. How do you find that the pitch is playing? It's very good for Brandon so he just had to vary his pace and just have to stick with it straight through. 326 for seven is what the Scorpions are at this stage, entering day number three. How do you feel about the position of this game? Well I feel very confident in the position that we're in. Just tomorrow we just have to come and wrap up, wrap up the tail, not trying to get and get a very big lead. All the best. Thank you very much. Yeah Joshua Bischoff, there are three 485 from his 27 overs today for the West Indies Academy. Let's get a quick word in with Leroy Lug who scored 64 for the Jamaican Scorpions, Leroy Lug. Very important innings for you today in the Jamaican Scorpions side. Second game this season. Talk to me about the performance. Well I'm pretty pleased with the performance. I just went out there and tried to play straight as possible because the pitch is a good pitch so I was just trying to play straight and play each ball and it's merit. Yeah just before lunch you had an over where you went for a big hit. I think it was off Ashmead Ned. You missed it then you had a word with Brandon King and the next two deliveries, one hit over mid on for four and then the other one through mid wicket and the feelers probably felt they had a slight chance. Talk to me about what the conversation was with your captain. Well King just came down to me and he told me that it's the last over for London so I should just play safe cricket but the ball was there and the field was in so I just took my chances. How do you feel about how you got out getting caught on the long on boundary at a stage where it looked as if you were on course to get a big one? I'm really really disappointed even though no excuses still but I was trying to hit the ball over mid off but the inside edge of the baton went down to long on but I'm really disappointed. You're naturally an aggressive player. How difficult is it to curb that natural instinct and the fact that you also know that you have the ability to clear the ropes? It can be good and it can be bad, kind of difficult but I'm working on it. It's just that me to pick the bad balls and be selective whenever I'm batting. Well good knock today and all the best going forward. Thank you very much. Yeah Leroy Lug there for the Jamaica Scorpions getting 64 today. It was a very good innings from Leroy Lug because he put on a 103 run fourth wicket partnership with his captain Brandon King. The Scorpions were in trouble early. They were 67 for three within the first hour of play. They had gotten off to a really good start, a 59 run opening stand between Carlos Brown and Kurt McKenzie. Kurt McKenzie was brilliantly caught by captain Naim Young at extra cover for 29 and then Carlos Brown was third to go when the score was on 67. I want to talk you quickly though through Brandon King's innings because I thought it was an excellent knock one in which the head of selectors for the West Indies Test Team might be pleased at. I think everyone here at Savannah Park would be a little bit disappointed that he didn't go on to make a century. He started out slowly when he was at the wicket with Leroy Lug in that 103 run partnership. He played very responsible cricket. Leroy Lug was the man going and Brandon King was the one willing to rotate strike, pick up the singles and show Leroy Lug had most of the strike. His 50 came up of 95 deliveries and he ended up on 77 from 132 deliveries. So the next 27 runs came up of 37 deliveries. He increased the scoring rate. He would be very disappointed the way he got out looking to hit the ball over mid wicket and got bold of Joshua Bishop. But I thought for the most part it was an extremely responsible knock and if this is what we're to expect from Brandon King going forward in this competition, then yeah, maybe he does have a very good future in Red Bull Cricket. Remember, he's no slouch in Red Bull Cricket. He averages 34.95 coming into this match in first class cricket with three centuries. Today was his 15th first class half century and sadly it was not a fourth for him. Pete Salmon also played a very good knock for the Jamaica Scorpions ending not out. He got a chance when he was on nine. So he took full advantage of that one to give the Scorpions a two run lead at the end of the day. I also quickly have to tell you about German Blackwood who has been having a torrid tournament and maybe it's been even worse for this match. Earlier this week it was announced that he would no longer be the Jamaica Scorpions captain that he would be relieved of those duties. Brandon King took charge coming into this match and Blackwood scored 56 runs in five innings. After his doc today, he went LBW of Kadim Alain and after that doc today, that's 56 runs now in six innings. He had a terrible first day as well, putting down two chances at slip and it's not going well for German Blackwood, the ex-West Indies Red Bull captain looking to get back into the West Indies side at 32 years old and how terrible the season has gone. You just can't see that at the moment unless he does something extremely special from this point on. That's about it from Savannah Park. Then a quick recap of where we are. Jamaica Scorpions 326 for seven having resumed a two on 20 without loss in response to 324 made by the West Indies Academy. The Scorpions lead by two runs, Lance and Mariah. Thanks Ricardo, good to hear from Joshua Bishop and Leroy Lug, some of the top performers in play today. Lug had some experience playing in Barbados for Maple, I think it was a few years ago and getting an opportunity in regional cricket now and trying to grab the opportunity with both hands. Let's head now to Queen's Park over in Trinidad and Tobago where on Webster's on beaten 100, 107 led the TNT Red Force to 103 run first innings lead over the Windwards volcanoes and before the volcanoes batted a second time, Kenneth Denver, the Vincentian Offspinner 5463 as the TNT Red Force scored 294 and replied to the Windwards 191 all out and the Windwards in their second innings now 68 for two. Jeremy Salazzano, the TNT batsman 30, not how it carved PR one for seven so far so the volcanoes trail by 35 runs at the moment. Still in Trinidad at Tobago where the Leewards Hurricanes and the combined campuses and colleges are in action at the Sir Frank Wall Memorial Ground. Kyron Powell's knock of 114 brought the Leewards Hurricanes within 14 runs of the CC's first innings score of 273. So 259 all out the Leewards Hurricanes replying to the 273 there. Romario Graves, the Barbadian Offspinner with 5463 against Kyron Powell's 114 in the combined campuses and colleges in their second innings 76 for three with Sadiq Henry 32 not out and Jeremiah Louis 2 for 16 so far so at Stomps on day two the CCC leading by 90 runs so some good tight cricket Mariah in these matches and good to see some five cricket holes today at the Coolidge Ground. The Guy in the Harpy Eagles 436 so lot. Virasami Permal with a career best first innings 90 against Kemal Roach 2 for 52 and the Barbados pride struggling at 59 for three in reply so a massive total there by the Guy in the Harpy Eagles and drawing their best game of the tournament so far their title defense hasn't been going very well for them but 436 a huge total there and Permal getting runs today 10 short of 100. We spoke of hundreds for Kyron Powell and Tion Webster and a five-quit holds for Romaria Graves and there was a five-quit hole as well for Anderson Phillip yesterday. We spoke about that but there was another five-quit hole today that I'll mention in just a moment but a lot of players applying themselves in this regional 4 day championship and getting among the runs and wickets. Yeah and I'm so happy because we had a lot of half centuries a lot of players although they didn't go on to make the century because you mentioned a couple of them but even Kevin Sinclair that's 72. Kevlon Anderson that 87. I feel like all of this is worth mentioning Lance because you know for quite some time whenever we talk Western cricket we always talk about the problems associated with the batting so for me the bowling I never really worry too much about but it's just a sigh of relief to see them getting runs on their bat looking forward to see some more centuries moving forward. Yeah so Stumps on day two there so Romaria Graves and Kenneth Denver the offspinners that got five-quit holes today we go to break interactive is next on the other side of the break.
