ST. JOHN’S, Antigua – Guyana Jaguars will formalise regaining the Headley/Weekes Trophy, symbol of supremacy, for a third straight season, when they face Leeward Islands Hurricanes in the final match of the Digicel Regional 4-Day Tournament, starting today at the Guyana National Stadium.
The match will be the only contest this week, since it was rescheduled from the ninth round, due to the staging of the three One-day Internationals between West Indies and Pakistan earlier this month at the same venue.
The Jaguars effectively wrapped up the title last weekend, when they crushed the Windward Islands Volcanoes in the 10th round of matches by an innings and 122 runs at the same venue, so this weekend’s game will be to practically put the icing on another successful campaign following the long, gruelling season.
Stuck in the craw of the home team will be the highest successful run chase ever in the modern era of a R4Day which the visitors achieved in the second round of matches last November which was only the third victory for the Hurricanes over their opponents since the turn of the century.
Jaguars having won the last two matches between the two sides at the Guyana National Stadium also fortify their tag as favourites for the contest.
