Johnson, Bobb wreck T&T on opening day - chairman - 03-08-2014
PORT-OF-SPAIN, Trinidad – The Windward Islands, led by pacer Delorn Johnson, dominated hosts Trinidad & Tobago on the opening day of their Round 2, Regional 4-Day match at the Queen’s Park Oval.
The hosts managed to get past 200 on a slow day of scoring but are merely just hanging on to this match in the first innings. They were sent in to bat first when Liam Sebastien won the toss in the morning.Their batting was always a bit suspicious. Within the first ten overs, it was confirmed. With just eight runs on the board, Evin Lewis’ leave-alone off Delorn Johnson cost him his wicket. He had the sympathy of many watching. He was struck outside off-stump but the ball hit him above the knee-roll.
Next to follow was Darren Bravo, who has been struggling for runs. He stuck around for a little while but then nicked one to Lindon James and he was gone for just one. At the other end, though, Adrian Barath was looking solid.

Mohammed had batted well for T&T. He struck ten fours during his 164-ball stay at the crease, and looked T&T’s best batsman. However, he was the first of Alston Bobb’s four victims. He was out for 73.
At 141-5, T&T lost two more quick wickets. Skipper Rayad Emrit and leg-spinner, Yannic Cariah, combined in a 50-run partnership to add some steel to the hosts’ innings. Both rotated the strike much better than their colleagues.

He was one of the potential walking wickets for T&T. But he batted with purpose, seeing out the first session with the help of Jason Mohammed. They batted slowly, failing to turn over the strike frequently.
Things got a little bit easier for both batsmen after lunch though. They started with a flurry of boundaries each. However, on 39, Barath went after a wide ball from Johnson and got a thin edge through to James.
Mohammed then linked up with wicketkeeper, Steven Katwaroo, as they put on 55 runs together. They too, batted quite slowly. Katwaroo batted 67 balls for his 20 before he advanced down the track looking for a single, only to miss the ball and be stumped.
