He opined the despite the small lead enjoyed by Guyanese players going into the final test, the situation was not so cut and dried as the team with the better technical application could have carted off the honours.
Mr. Williams explained that shrewd tactical applications were responsible for Guyana assuming the lead but they would still have to be wary of the other teams the tournament was intricately poised and fortunes could slant in favour of any of the teams.
