RAIN DENIED Barbados the opportunity of recording a fourth consecutive win and securing the Regional Under-15 cricket title, when the contest against Guyana, played at the KMV Oval in Lakes, St Andrew, yesterday, was abandoned at 4:45 pm due to rain.

Both teams were forced to settle for one point and the Barbadian youngsters will now have to wait until their final match against Trinidad Tobago at North Stars tomorrow, to get the opportunity to confirm themselves as 2017 champions.

Set a revised target of 64 for victory from 30 overs, Barbados started confidently and had reached nine without loss in four overs when the fourth interruption of play sent the players from the field for the final time.  (PH)
