Two recent Windies under 19 players, Jaden Carmichael and Carlon Bowen Tuckett batted with grit and determination, to ward off intense pressure brought to bear, by an Antiguan team, which was sensing victory.
After all, Nevis was on the back foot at 126 for 5 and it appeared all over by the shouting, with the proverbial FAT LADY, hovering just outside the Pak’s wall.
Nevis was facing an unlikely victory target of 442 runs.
However, the two young men stood firm, staving off everything that Rahkeem Cornwall and his men, threw at them.
