Super50 hundreds for Greaves and Wickham; victory for Pride and Red Force

Barbados Pride and defending champions Trinidad and Tobago Red Force pulled off contrasting wins on Friday when action in the CG United Super50 Cup continued in Trinidad.

While Pride closed off a high-intensity run-chase with just two balls remaining against Leeward Islands Hurricanes, Red Force coasted to victory over Windward Islands Volcanoes.

Among the standout performers were Hurricanes opener Justin Greaves scoring 112, his second century in as many innings this tournament; young Kevin Wickham hitting a superb 118 to set up the Pride victory; and opener Tion Webster getting a magnificent 95 not out in the Red Force victory.

On the bowling side, left-arm spinner Jomes Warrican was the highlight with a four-wicket haul for Pride.
