Corbin, Brooks lead strong start

ST GEORGE’S, Grenada – Opener Kyle Corbin and in-form Shamarh Brooks struck half-centuries to lead a measured Barbados Pride batting effort on the opening day of their fourth-round game against Windward Islands Volcanoes yesterday.

Opting to bat first at the National Stadium, Pride finished the day on 233 for four, with Corbin hitting a top score of 68 and Brooks getting 51.

Rookie Kemar Brathwaite fell just short of his maiden first-class half-century for 46, left-hander Jonathan Carter made 30 while Roston Chase was unbeaten on 27 at the close.

Off-spinner Dalton Polius claimed two for 30 to be the best Volcanoes bowler on show. (CMC)
