Barbados, Jamaica clash hit by rain again

LUCAS STREET, Barbados, CMC – Heavy rains once again forced the abandonment of play in the WICB Professional Cricket League second round game between Barbados Pride and Jamaica here yesterday.

A strong weather system which moved into the area late Thursday continued to dump torrential rains across the island, leaving the Windward Sports Club ground under water for the second straight day.

Once the weather clears, play on Sunday’s third day is scheduled to bowl off at 9:30 am.

The washout is another big blow for the hosts who also saw their first round game against Trinidad and Tobago Red Force hit by rain in Port of Spain last weekend, resulting in a draw.

With Barbados closing in on victory on the final day, the inclement weather allowed just 14.4 overs at Queen’s Park OvaL.
