The Barbadians handed Windward Islands their first defeat after both teams posted first and second round wins.
However, it was an unbeaten century from Leniko Boucher which stole the spotlight at the Conaree Sports Complex and propelled Barbados into the lead of the tournament with three wins.
Leniko batted responsibly to reach 106 lifting the Bajans to 281 for 5 in their second innings and sharing in a century stand for the fifth wicket with Shamari Springer.

Meantime, defending champions Jamaica crashed to another defeat this time at the hands of Trinidad and Tobago at the Edgar Gilbert Complex.
Jamaica, 63-4 overnight in their second innings, were skittled out for 115 with Demali Taylor scoring 32, Orande Pearson 23 and Orlando Rowe 23 not out.

Set 76 for victory, Trinidad and Tobago reached 81-1 with Negus Smith and Dejourn Charles not out on 48 and 22, respectively.
