St John's, Antigua - Round 3 of the Regional 4-Day Tournament fully gets underway today with all three matches set to take place across the Caribbean.
It will be Day 2 at Providence Stadium where the Windward Islands are resuming on 289/6 against hosts, Guyana. Debutant, Sunil Ambris, scored a century on Day 1 while captain Liam Sebastien will resume on 60 not out today.
Barbados and the Combined Campuses & Colleges meet at the Three Ws Oval. This is always a keenly contested affair. All seven matches in this head-to-head battle have ended in a victory with the Barbadians holding a 4-3 edge.
They however, have lost three of the four matches they have contested at the Three Ws Oval – only breaking the sequence of losing at this venue last year with a resounding innings and 185-run victory.
Finally, T&T will play their first day/night game of the season when they host the Leeward Islands at the Queen's Park Oval. With West Indies opener Kieran Powell at the helm, have enjoyed a bit of a revival in this year’s competition, entering this round of matches in second place.
The Leewards will be aiming to reverse their recent history against Rayad Emrit’s side. They have only beaten T&T twice since the turn of the century, coincidentally both times in the two-island republic, including a 29-run victory three years ago at the Oval.
T&T however, have won four of their last five matches against the Leewards – all on foreign soil. Peculiarly, they have won only once in eight matches on home soil.
