Babados, Guyana share honours
GEORGETOWN: Ian Bradshaw grabbed five wickets and Travis Dowlin marked his return to First-Class cricket with a responsible half-century as Guyana and Barbados shared honours on the opening day of their first round Carib Beer Series match at the Everest Cricket Club yesterday. Left-arm seamer Bradshaw took four wickets in the post-tea session, including the important scalp of Dowlin who made 73, that stabilised the Guyana innings after the hosts ran into early trouble on winning the toss. They were eventually dismissed for 241 and Barbados replied with two without loss in one over they faced before the close. Bradshaw finished with five for 50 off 23 overs and was backed up by fellow fast medium bowler Ryan Nurse, who took three for 60 off 21 overs. Dowlin, who was overlooked by the Guyana selectors for the previous two seasons, batted patiently and struck six fours and a six off 188 balls in 277 minutes’ batting before he miscued a pull off Bradshaw and was caught at mid-wicket.
