Defending champions Jamaica have taken a commanding lead over Guyana on the second day of their final-round match in the Regional Four-Day Championship at the National Stadium on Thursday.
The Jamaicans lead Guyana by 295 runs with five second-innings wickets in hand after destructive bowling spells from Sheldon Cotterell and Dave Bernard Jr and a 96-run sixth-wicket partnership between Carlton Baugh and Jermaine Blackwood.
At stumps Jamaica, in their second innings, were 183 for five after Guyana imploded for a paltry 96 in their first innings.
The Guyanese had earlier bowled out Jamaica for a first-innings total of 208.
Cotterell exploited overcast conditions to grab four for 31 while Bernard Jr snatched 3 for 18 to engineer a theatrical demise of the Guyana first innings in which five wickets collapsed in the first 30 minutes.
