Hosts Trinidad and Tobago were strongly placed on 158-1 replying to Guyana’s
290 at the end of the second day of their sixth round Regional Four-Day cricket match at the Queens Park Oval in Port-of-Spain yesterday with Adrian Barath unbeaten on 74 and Marlon Barclay on 23.
The home team, missing four senior players on West Indies duty against Australia, are 133 runs away from first innings points despite a steady if not penetrative day at the office by the Guyanese bowlers on a good track for batting.
Guyana began the day on 260-6 and their innings quickly folded as pacers Rayad Emrit (3-35) and Shannon Gabriel (3-64) were the pick of the bowlers for T&T who lost Justin Guillen for 34 left-arm spinner Veerasammy Permaul.
The 21-year-old Barath who scored his on Test century on debut against Australia in 2009 and 24-year-old Barclay, in only his second match at this level, then saw the team from Carnival country to the close without further loss.
Earlier, Guyana, second in the points table behind defending champs Jamaica, began the day with Shiv Chanderpaul 21 away from his 62nd First-Class ton and Derwin Christian on 18 and the left-handed Skipper added just one to his 79 before he was removed.
The other batsmen fell quickly as T&T enjoyed a good first session in the field and Barath will have his eyes set on his 7th First-Class hundred when play resumes at 10:00hrs on the penultimate day today.
In the other matches, the Leewards were 121-5 in their second innings after making 138 in their first innings as they lost first innings points from the home team Barbados who scored 317 in their first innings.
And in Grenada, the Windwards were 106-4 in their second innings after making 148 in their first innings to lose first innings to CCC who made 208 in their first innings.
