 Sports Mag Zone, let's return to cricket. The West Indies 4-day championship got underway today with four matches taking place simultaneously in St. Kitts and Nevis. And Jamaica remember no play in the game between the combined campuses and colleges. And Barbados pride schedule for Chedwin Park because of a wet outfield. Now, let's go to St. Kitts and Nevis at Stumps, at Connery, cricket ground. Turn it out into big or red force after winning the toss and electing to back reach 215 for four before Badlite stopped play the first century of the competition coming from Jaisa Mohamed, not out on 100, 227 deliveries. He struck 11-4s. Hasn't hit a 6 yet and he got good support from Tian Webster who scored a half-century 50. Meanwhile, at Stumps on Day 1 in the other game in St. Kitts at one apart, the Leone Islands Hurricanes were bowled out for 137 after being sent to back by the West Indies Academy who at Stumps are 70-4-2. They are trailing by some 77 runs. Jeremiah Lewy top scored for the Hurricanes with 45. Joshua James, 3-4-11. Ashmead Ned, the left arm spinner, 2-3. And the West Indies Academy being led at the moment by M. Beckett Joseph with an unbeaten 30. Akeem Oghist on beaten on 15 at the close, a wicket for Colin Archibald and Lewy. Archibald 1-3, Lewy 1-4-12. So the first century of the cricket West Indies 4-day championship coming today lands from one of the veterans Jaisa Mohamed. Yeah, 37 years old now, over West Indies under 19 captain Jaisa Mohamed. Good to see him still getting among the runs. And Trinidad and Tobago, the Red Force team suffering from a drought, Ricardo, in regional red ball titles. They haven't won a red ball title since 2006. And during that period we've seen Guyana win six titles. Jamaica and Barbados I think each have won about five or so during that period. So TNT Red Force really overdue for a title in four day cricket. And a little hard to understand because they have produced good cricketers consistently for decades Trinidad and Tobago. So it is a little curious that they haven't won a red ball title since 2006. Yeah, you said they have produced good cricketers, but a lot of those have swayed towards the limited over versions of the game. And I think that's part of the reason why when I looked at the Trinidad and Tobago Red Force lineup, I was quite pleased to see the name Jaden Seals because there was doubt about whether he would be fit in time to start the competition. He is fit. He has started, of course, Trinidad and Tobago batting first. So no need for him to ball today, but I can't wait to see what he offers with the ball. Yeah. And especially since we have seen Shamar Joseph rise up as a genuine solid new ball bowler. Jaden Seals because of his pace. A lot of Westerners cricket fans are anticipating that he would be a good new ball partner when fit for Shamar Joseph. So what he does here in this regional four day tournament, Jaden Seals will be closely watched. Yeah, interesting matchup as well for the Guy and a Harpy Eagles, Kevin Sinclair and Vera Samir-Pomol in the lineup. Vera Samir-Pomol, one of the most consistent bowlers in regional cricket, pretty much almost every season. He leads wicket taking 2 for 40 to start the competition. Kevin Sinclair, none for 57 from his 24 overs. But of course, Kevin Sinclair, the one who is in the West Indies set up at the moment. And I think we can safely say that we will not see Vera Samir-Pomol again at West Indies level, but at the regional level, he continues to do really well. Yeah. Guy and I has had a tradition of producing pretty outstanding spinners. And in the past decade, we've seen we've seen that continue. The Vindra Bishu and Vera Samir-Pomol for many, many years dominated regional cricket with the ball. And before them, Neil McGarland, Mahendra Nagamoto. Yeah, you know, that has been so, of course, landscapes had set the stage from the sixties and so on. So good to see the Guy and a Harpy Eagles coming out to defend their title. I put it to Akeem Jordan and Zachary Mckaskey yesterday when they were on the show, if they thought again, Harpy Eagles would be as potent with Kevlin Anderson as their captain and not Leon Johnson, who was widely regarded, Ricardo, as one of the most astute captains in regional cricket for the past decade. And the results showed. Yeah, very much the case. Also, the other game that we had play was at Sabina Park in Kingston, the Jomica Scorpions taking on the Winwin Islands Volcanoes and the Scorpions bonded on for 159. Romain Morris stopped scoring in that match with 35. He was unfortunate to run out. We do have Gerard Morrissey on location at Sabina Park and let's get the latest from him. Gerard. Thank you so much, Ricardo. And yeah, I'm here. I'm here at Sabina Park and at the close of playscore. Let me give you that firstly. Rainwood Island Volcanoes 157 for two after 41 overs. Of course, play was being extended for a couple overs after there was a very slow overway by both teams. So that's why we went over to 530 where all the other games finished at five o'clock. But yeah, at the end of play, we had Kimani Melius. He was on 31, of course, rather than Gerard. Your hand, Gerard. My not on 66. Sunia Ambrose 30 not after 41 overs. Winwin Islands Volcanoes on two runs behind Jamaica Scorpions. So there are two innings. Well, one innings here completed. Jamaica batting first. It was a horrible day for them struggling with bat and ball. They were skidded out for 159, 74 for five after the first session. And then there was a mini partnership between Romain Morris and Abijay Mansing. But unfortunately, as you mentioned, Ricardo, Morris was run out and then Mansing was replaced, was out. Well, he was out very shortly after Morris and that slump right down to 157. So if it wasn't for the final three batsmen, they would not have made it to 150 runs because it looked like they would have been bowed off for 120 by the early tea break. But they managed to get to 157 runs. It was a really good start from Kimani Melius for the Winwin Islands Volcanoes. He got 31 before he was out. And then significantly slowing down the scoring rate for the Winwin Islands Volcanoes. But then they picked up through Jeremiah and then I got a couple of runs at the end. And that's why there are two runs behind now. We thought they would have been able to take the lead before the end of play, but they weren't able to do so. Some really good bowling by Jermaine Blackwood was able to tie them down someone at the end was able to tie them down a bit as well. And only the spinners were able to get the two wickets for the way for the Jamaica Scorpions. And then they continue here tomorrow. They would hope that they can replay and regroup and get something productive out of day two, because it was a really horrible day for Jamaica, a really tough day for Jamaica. And they can do better. They know that they can do better and they would want to do to regroup and come back stronger on day two. Although Winwin Islands Volcanoes will be hoping that Jeremiah can follow suit with Jason Muhammad and score 100 for this tournament. And yeah, they would really need it from Volcanoes and really need it for from from Jeremiah rather. And yeah, it'll be really good to see them go on a day two and take a significant lead against the Scorpions. Yeah, thanks very much. Gerard live from Savannah Park on day one of the first round of the cricket West Indies four day championship. The Winwin Islands Volcanoes very much in charge of that encounter two runs behind, but they have eight first innings wickets in hand. They dominated the opening day and surely Kimon Emilius and his team very much pleased with their performance. Let's take a break on the Sportsman zone. We'll close out today's action with interactive.
