The Leewards Islands were large and in charge, at the end of day one in their second-round match versus Guyana Eagles As a matter of fact, the Guyana Eagles had their wings royally clipped, as batting first, their powerful batting line up, was dismissed for a mere 116 runs. Star player, Shimron Hetmyer, got out in a strange manner for a one-ball duck.
He defended a ball from Jeremiah Louis and upon realizing that the ball was bouncing towards his stumps, he inadvertently took his hand and knocked it away.
He was given out for obstruction.
Nevisian Colin Archibald collected 3 wickets, along with Daniel Doram.
In their turn at the crease, the Leewards were 126 without loss, with Nevisian Kieran Powell, batting superbly on 55 not out and Montcin Hodge on 51 not out.
