Brendan Nash topscored with 65 and there were 40s from Wavell Hinds and Chadwick Walton, as Jamaica made 376 all out to take an 18-run first innings lead over the England Lions with one day to go in their four-day match at Sabina Park. Danny Briggs took 5-121, while there were three wickets for Buck, and one each for Woakes and Harris. Pacer Jason Dawes then took the wicket of Lyth for just one, but Jimmy Adams hit 38 and Gale 57, before they both fell to spinner Bevon Brown, taking the Lions to 149-3 at stumps. The not out batsmen are James Hildreth (16) and James Taylor (10).
At the halfway stages of the other three matches, three teams looked poised to take command. Guyana were reeling at 137-5 in reply to Trinidad's 434-5 declared. Lendl Simmons hit 202 not out, and there were 60s from Denesh Ramdin and Jason Mohammed, while Jacobs was Guyana's best bowler with two wickets. In reply, only Rajendra Chandrika with 77 not out offered any resistance, as the remaining Guyanese batsmen, including the out-of-form Narsing Deonarine, fell cheaply to Amit Jaggernauth and Imran Khan, with three and two wickets respectively.
In a low-scoring game in Barbados, Jonathan Carter was the only batsmen to offer any resistance for the Bajans, making 99 in a total of 195 against the bowling of Kavesh Kantasingh 4-50, and two wickets each for Kevin McClean, Ryan Austin and Carlos Brathwaite. Set 173 to win, the CCC were 36-1 at the close, having lost Rommel Currency to Fidel Edwards for just one. The not out batsmen are Phillips (15) and Thomas (12).
The Windwards took command of their match against the Leewards, reaching 285-6 after two days, for a 213-run lead on first innings. Lesporis topscored with 86 and Fletcher made 70, while the not out batsmen are Kevin James (26) and Gary Mathurin (one) against the bowling of Tonge and Peters with two wickets each.

The England Lions, the pre-tournament favourites, and Jamaica, the defending champions, finished the group fixtures on 51 points each, to share third place in the Caribbean domestic four-day competition. Surprise package the Combined Campuses and Colleges scored the most points, finishing with 57 points, while Trinidad and Tobago were second on 52 points.
Set 275 to win, Jamaica hung on for a draw against the England Lions, reaching 184-9 at stumps on the final day of their final group match. James HIldreth hit 77 not out and Andrew Gale 57, as the Lions first made 292-4 declared, against spinner Bevon Brown with 3-96. Chadwick Walton hit 52 and Brendan Nash 49, but the rest of the batting fell away, while James Harris and Danny Briggs took four wickets each.
The CCC, a team packed with youth players striving to make the West Indies team, secured a five-wicket win over Barbados, Omar Phillips leading the way with 78 not out as they easily made 175-5. Nkrumah Bonner hit 32 as Kevin Stoute took two wickets for the Bajans.
Trinidad won by an innings and 45 runs, as they made Guyana follow on. Responding to Trinidad's 434-5 declared, built around Lendl Simmons' double-century, Rajendra Chandrika made 90 and Derwent Christian 51 as Guyana were bowled out for 216 in the first innings by Trinidad's spinners Amit Jaggernauth (5-41) and Imran Khan (4-66). Following on, Guyana could only make 173 in their second innings, Leon Johnson topscoring with 48, while Khan took 4-45 and another spinner, Yannick Cariah, snared 5-46.
Only one match is still going on, as the game between the Windwards and the Leewards enters today's final day. Facing a 246-run deficit on first innings, the Leewards have at least forced the Windwards to bat again, reaching 284-7 at stumps. Gavin Williams hit 114, while there were unbeaten 40s for Jacques Taylor and Gavin Tonge. Nelon Pascal, gary Mathurin and Andre Fletcher have taken two wickets each so far.
The England Lions will return home now to prepare for the county season, while the semi-finalists for the Caribbean domestic four-day competition have been decided - CCC, Trinidad, Jamaica and the Windwards. They take place on April 1-4, with the final scheduled for a week later.
