PENAL, Trinidad (CMC):
Trinidad & Tobago maintained their unbeaten run in the KFC Cup when they beat Windward Islands by two wickets in their fourth round match at the Wilson Road Recreation Ground yesterday.
Chasing Windwards' competitive 234 for eight off 50 overs, the hosts reached 236 for eight off 42.3 overs to complete their fourth straight victory in the competition.
Without several of their first choice players, Jason Mohammed (39), Daren Ganga (36) and Gibran Mohammed (35) produced decent knocks to get T&T up to their target.
When they were all dismissed to leave the hosts in a spot of bother on 194 for eight, all-rounder Ravi Rampaul hit an unbeaten 40 and shared in a 42-run ninth wicket stand with Sanjiv Gooljar (5 not out) to deny the Windwards. The fighting innings earned Rampaul the Man-of-the-Match award after he faced 39 balls and struck one four and two sixes. SCOREBOARD WINDWARDS Innings
