In Zone B, Jamaica won with 16 points with four wins and two losses while Barbados came second on 14 points with three wins, two losses and a no result. Leeward Islands Hurricanes also had 14 points at the end of the Zone but an inferior net run rate (NRR) caused them to miss the opportunity to advance.
They had three wins, two losses and a no result while the fourth place finisher, West Indies Academy, won once and lost five times to finish on four points.
Gudakesh Motie
As far as individual performances go, Alick Athanaze of Windward Islands is the leading run scorer with 292 run from six innings. He has also pegged the highest individual total of 140 with an average of 48.66.

Sunil Ambris (236), Keacy Carty (234), Nicholas Pooran (223), Rovman Powell (216) and Jahmar Hamilton (214) are the next five highest scorers, all of whom have played six innings each. However, in the season’s centurion club, Athanaze, Hodge (106*) and Carty (103”) are the only batsmen with membership.
In the bowling department, Hurricanes’ Kofi James has been the most effective with the ball after snagging 14 wickets in five innings. Dennis Bulli occupies the second place spot with 12 wickets from four innings while Guyana’s Gudakesh Motie is third with 11 wickets.
However, since Hurricanes have exited the tournament, opportunities now lie ahead for Bulli and Motie, the closet players to overtake James’ total.
