The Guyana Jaguars will be hoping to put behind them the burden of a second straight defeat and focus on forging a come-from-behind bid to qualify for the semifinals of this year’s Regional Super50 one day tournament.

The Jaguars went down to the Jamaica Scorpions in their second match by 41 runs despite a crafty century (101) from old-timer Shivnarine Chanderpaul after losing their opening game to the Barbados Pride on Tuesday.

Chanderpaul, who did not play in Tuesday’s match which the Jaguars lost by 145 runs, because of a neck injury, was passed fit and included for the Jamaica game.

There was welcome sigh of relief when `Mr. Dependable’ strolled to the crease with the Jaguars already in a spot of bother.
