Vanessa Watts and Taylor with their offspin, combined for 6 wickets between them, Watts had figures of 3/15 while Taylor had 3/16. Reniece Boyce was the stop scorer for the Leewards with 37, followed by Shebani Bhaskar 14 and Shanwnisha Hector 14.

Guyana earned their first win of the tournament with a handsome 44-run win over the Windward Islands. Batting first a patient 61 off 102 deliveries from Shabika Gajnabi and 42 from skipper Shemiane Campbelle propelled Guyana to 207/8 from their 50 overs. Carena Noel once again starred for the Windwards with her spin, taking 3/47. Nerissa Crafton continued her run of form with the bat with a quickfire 47 off 54 deliveries, but it was not enough as she ran out of partners to take their team to victory, as the Windwards were bowled out for 163 in 40.2 overs. Plaffiana Millington, Ashmini Munisar and Nyia Latchman all had 2 wickets a piece, to finish with figures of 2/23, 2/31, 2/38 respectively.

Shabika Gajnabi

In the final match, Trinidad and Tobago Divas suffered their second defeat in as many matches, when they lost by 8 runs to archrivals Barbados. Batting first, Barbados 186 all out in 48.4 overs, thanks to a brilliant 93 from captain Kycia Knight. Knight’s innings of 134 deliveries which included seven fours and a six, looked set to take Barbados well past 200 but tactical bowling and a batting collapse prevented that. Karishma Ramharack once again led the Divas bowling figures with 4/20 followed by Samara Ramnath with 3/38. In their run-chase, the Divas had 33 from skipper Britney Cooper, 32 from Ramnath and 26 from LeeAnn Kirby, but the rest of the batters failed to fire, as they finished on 178/8 from 50 overs. Aaliyah Alleyne and Keila Elliott had figures of 2/33 from 10 0vers each.
