Stand-in captain Travis Dowlin and experienced hand Shivnarine Chanderpaul, who hit medium pacer Daren Sammy for two sixes, took the Windward Islands bowling by the scruff of its neck yesterday to propel Guyana to 312-3 at the close of the first day’s play of their final round Carib Beer Cup match at the National Stadium at Providence.
Though he was outscored by his senior partner and West Indies batting linch-pin Chanderpaul in the final session, the day belonged to Dowlin, who not only called correctly, but also recorded his fourth first-class century.
