Martin fireworks giveLeewards fighting chance

PORT OF SPAIN, Trinidad, CMC – Leeward Islands leg-spinner Anthony Martin struck three lethal blows late in the day yesterday to leave Trinidad and Tobago tottering and set up an enthralling finish  today’s final day of their fifth round Regional First Class Championship encounter.

Set a paltry 183 to win, T&T slumped to 75 for five at the close at Queen’s Park Oval, still 108 runs adrift of their target. And with Runako Morton taking no further part in the match, it means T&T are effectively six wickets down.

Sherwin Ganga was carrying the fight for T&T with an unbeaten 35 and will resume with partner Rayad Emrit (1 not out), with the hopes of carrying the hosts to victory.
