Scorpions 39-0 at lunch after Red Force enforce follow-on
KINGSTON, Jamaica – Jamaica Scorpions were 39 without loss at lunch in their second innings after being asked to follow-on by Trinidad and Tobago Red Force during their regional four-day match at Sabina Park on Friday.
Overall, the Scorpions need to make a further 204 runs to force the dominant visitors to bat a second time.
Scores: Red Force 432 (122 ovs); Scorpions 189 (63.4 ovs) & 39-0 (19 ovs).
Earlier on Friday’s third day, the Scorpions resumed from their overnight score of 159-9 and added a further 30 runs before they were bowled out.
Jeavor Royal, who made a back-to-the-wall 46, was the last wicket to fall. Debutant Andrae Dennis ended on 12 not out. The Red Force off spinner Bryan Charles took 6-82.
The Red Force enforced the follow-on, but the Scorpions openers Carlos Brown and left-hander Javaughn Buchanan, on 16 and 19, respectively, took the hosts to the lunch interval without too much hassle.
