KINGSTON, Jamaica — Debutant Akim Fraser claimed three wickets for Jamaica Scorpions as Guyana Jaguars reached 74-3 at lunch time on day one of the eighth-round West Indies four-day cricket match at Sabina Park.

The Jaguars left-handers Vishaul Singh and Leon Johnson are not out on 18 and 15, respectively.

Teams:

Scorpions- Paul Palmer (captain), Chadwick Walton, Brandon King, Assad Fudadin, Jermaine Blackwood, Aldaine Thomas, Derval Green, Jerome Taylor, Akim Fraser, Reynard Leveridge, Kenroy Williams.

Jaguars- Leon Johnson (captain), Tagenarine Chanderpaul, Chandrapaul Hemraj, Vishaul Singh, Sherfane Rutherford, Christopher Barnwell, Anthony Bramble, Raymon Reifer, Veerasammy Permaul, Clinton Pestano, Romario Shepherd.
