GEORGETOWN – Guyana Jaguars defeated Windward Islands Volcanoes by an innings and 122 runs before lunch on day three of their final round game in the Regional four-day championship at the Guyana National Stadium on Monday.

The Jaguars moved to an unassailable 131.4 points, with their rescheduled ninth-round game against Leeward Islands Hurricanes still to be played this coming weekend.
They are well clear of their closest challengers Barbados Pride.
