Trinidad and Tobago are champions of the 2024 Cricket West Indies Rising Stars Men’s Under-17 50-overs Championship.

With rain ruining their game against Barbados at Inshan Ali Park, Monday’s no result meant that the local squad are the champions.

T&T claimed the title with a record of three victories with two no results, after their fifth and final round match against Barbados was a washout.

Barbados concluded their campaign with two wins, with their three other games ending in with no results in the heavily rain-affected tournament. The entire second round was washed out by rain.

On Monday, the Brendan Boodoo-captained T&T squad batted first and tallied a relatively substantial 159 all out in 46.4 overs.

Christian Lall top-scored with a 57-ball 46 and received solid support from skipper Boodoo, who made 30 off 57 balls, including four boundaries.

Darrius Batoosingh chipped in with a valuable 29 from 56 balls, counting four fours.

Zachary Carty was the main wicket-taker for the Bajans, bagging 4-20.

In their turn at the crease, Barbados were 28-1 off five overs when rain forced the players off the field. The match was eventually called off.

And at the National Cricket Centre in Couva, there was also a no result after Guyana batted first, compiling 171 from 40.5 overs against the Leeward Islands.

Openers Vikash Wilkinson (34) and Rampersaud Ramnauth (31) led the way for the Guyanese while Romario Ramdeholl contributed 23.

For the Leewards, Isra-el Morton was the main man with the ball with 3-44, while Jaheem Kevaughn Clarke and Micah McKenzie took 2-20 and 2-24, respectively.

In yesterday’s other scheduled fixture, between Jamaica and the Windward Islands, at Gilbert Park, in California, the match was abandoned without a ball being bowled.
