Odane McCatty was solid as Jamaica chased 202 to beat Barbados by six wickets on the final day of their three-day WICB under-19 match in Guyana.
Victory seemed in the balance after two early losses left the team on 87-3 at lunch. However, McCatty’s unbeaten 81 helped to pilot the Jamaicans comfortably home.
Abhaijai Mansingh was with him on 11 as the side reached 205-4. Romaine Morris, 70, was Jamaica’s other chief scorer.
In the other first round matches, the Windward Islands beat Trinidad and Tobago by an innings and 21 runs while host Guyana and Leeward Islands played to a draw.
