Trinidad and Tobago eventually staved off a brave fightback by Guyana to win their match in the Regional Four-Day Championship yesterday by 45 runs.
That fight was led by the rock himself, Shivnarine Chanderpaul who scored 108, falling in the dying stages of the contest when a come from behind victory looked more possible for the Guyanese. Set 376 for victory, Guyana resuming the day on 54-1 were eventually out for 330.
Chanderpaul 108 was the mainstay of the innings as he shared useful partnerships along the way. Bishoo was left not out on 47*, Paul Wintz 50 and Ramnaresh Sarwan 42, lending valuable support.  Bowling for Trinidad Sunil Narine claimed 4 wickets, Riad Emritt 1, Dwayne Bravo 2 and Shannon Gabriel 3.
Scores: T&T 319 and 251-3 decl.; Guyana 195 and 330.

Austin, the Man-of-the-Match, captured six for 48 from 22 overs, as Leewards, chasing 305 for victory, were bowled out for 152 in their second innings about 25 minutes after tea on the final day of their fourth round match at the Three Ws Oval.
Devon Thomas led the way for the visitors with 37, Tonito Willett made 26 and Kieran Powell added 24, but no other batsman reached 20.
The victory was formalised when Leewards No.11 Anthony Martin top-edged a sweep to first slip off leg-spinner Akeem Dewar.
