Commentary:

42ov [wd . W . . . 4] 137/4: Deonarine 13* Vishaul Singh 4*. After getting the wicket Jaggers floated one up to young Vishaul and he creamed it to the point boundary to get off the mark.

WICKET! Fudadin c Simmons b Jaggernauth 11: 133/4. Very bad shot. Tried to hit the ball out the ground and only reached mid-off, who had to wait forever to see the pink ball come down out of the night sky. Fudadin cracked under pressure.

37ov [. W . 1 4 1] 117/3: Deonarine 11* Fudadin 1*. Excellent over with a key wicket, then a spanking cover drive for 4 from the "all-action" Deonarine

WICKET! Chandrika c wk Ramdin b Khan 65. 111/3. The young man falls on Nelson and Guyana are in a spot of bother here. New batsman is Fudadin

WICKET! Dowlin c Guillien b Jaggernauth 31. 97/2: TT strike at the perfect time -- a sharp catch a shortleg. The lights are in full blast and the pink ball looks great at night!

Guyana now on 82/1 from 28 overs: Chandrika 53*, Dowlin 30*. Chandrika batting very well, scoring a half-century in his first innings at this level, and more, against the pink ball!

Welcome back. We apologise for the slow updates from this venue but we have been facing some technical challenges. The present score is Guyana on 61/1 off 23 overs with young Chandrika looking very good on 41 and Dowlin, the warrior, on 13. The pair has so far added 50 for the second wicket.

6ov [. . W . . . ] 11/1: Chandrika 8* Dowlin 0*. That was a "super over", as they say, from Emrit getting rid of Chattergoon for 3.

WICKET! 11/1: Big wicket for TT as Emrit gets one to cut back and skipper Chattergoon dabs it into his middle stump. The Trinis are very very happy.

3ov [1 . . . . .] 7/0: Chandrika 6*, Chattergoon 1*. Top quality over from Rampaul who looks fired up. Really tested young Chandrika. Had him dropped by Guillien at short leg, and then had a close lbw turned down ... just a tad too high.

Trinidad and Tobago have been bowled out for 416. Last man Jaggernauth goes lbw to Deonarine for 5. Ramdin played a superb hand to topscore with 109 not out, including nine boundaries -- a real confidence-building innings for the keeper. Now, we will see how the Guyana batsmen shape up against the pink ball.

UPDATE! Play has moved on quickly since the break. TT are now on 413/9 with Ramdin on 108. He reached his sixth first-class ton with a superb off drive for four. With him is Jaggernauth on 3. Ramdin's century came from 217 balls in 171 minutes.

WICKET! And that's lunch on Day 2: Mohammed smashes one from the middle of the bat and Dowlin dives to his left to take a blinder. TT now on 387/8. Ramdin on 85 and Mohammed made 37 (partnership 85 for 8th wicket)

The new ball definitely brought a change: Ramdin was dropped at cover by Permaul off Bess first up. It was huge miss and since then the boundaries have been flowing. TT now on 384/7 with Ramdin on 87 and Dave Mohammed on 37 (partnership 81). Guyana need a wicket right now!

NEW BALL after 119 overs and big tall Brandon Bess has a pretty "pink cherry" in his hand. TT on 358/7

The pink ball is now 117 overs old and still looks good: TT 350 comes up as Mohammed smashes one to long off boundary. 352/7

There is movement beyond the boundary: Gravy (real name Labon Kenneth Blackburn Leeweltine Buchanan Benjamin) is up and about doing some fancy dance moves in the Beach 366 section. Happy to see the "party man" of West Indies cricket here with us.

First refreshment break: TT on 337/7. Ramdin looks good on 57 and Dave Mohammed has 16

End of over 107: 327/7. Ramdin on 54 off 138 balls and Mohammed on 10.

After 106 overs: TT have moved on to 324/7 with Ramdin batting well on and D Mohammed looking comfortable on 8

So far today we have seen five overs and TT have moved on to 315/7 from 306/7 overnight. The pink ball is turning but the batsmen are doing well. Ramdin is 48 and Dave Mohammed on 4

Good Saturday afternoon. Hello and welcome to Antigua when the sun is out and the people are happy

Thank you ladies and gents, boys and girls for joining us today for the historic first day of the first match under lights using the pink ball. It was a very good day (and night) of cricket with Lendl Simmons making a stroke-filled century and Jason Mohammed hitting 87. We hope you enjoyed the coverage and we hope to see some more fans tomorrow when play resumes at 1 pm. We had a few technical problems at the start of our feed but we thank you for your patience. We look forward to seeing you tomorrow. Have a very good night.

The scorers have made an adjustment: the correct total is 306/7 at the close

We have come to the close: TT end the day on 305/7. Ramdin has 54 not out off 110 balls and Dave Mohammed is yet to score. We had 97 overs with the pink ball today and it held up very well.

WICKET!!!! Emrit goes. trying to run a ball to third man and is bowled by Permaul's quicker ball. His score is adjusted to 17. TT on 302/7

95 overs gone: the TT batsmen look quite comfortable, seeing the pink ball as big as a breadfruit. Ramdin on 40 and Emrit still on 18. 302/6

the 300 comes up with a big piece of luck. Ramdin going for a big drive edges and keeper Christian spilles the chance diving in front first slip. Fast bowler Bess is very disappointed. score now 300/6. Ramdin moves on to 39, Emrit on 18

the Guyana bowlers have put in a full day's and night's work. They have completed 91 overs and we still have hal-hour to go. Good on them. TT have reached 291/6 with Ramdin on 30 off 89 balls and Emrit on 16. New "pink cherry" is due but Chattergoon won't be take it just yet

85 overs have been bowled and TT are on 265/6. Ramdin is fighting for his team on 21 from 73 balls but the Guyanese bowlers have fought back well.

the lights are now on in full and we await what could be an tight final session. It will be interesting to see how the pink ball behaves at night. We have two hours left and a minimum of 25 overs to get in... will the Trinis motor on to over 300 or will the Guyanee get some scalps in the final session? stay tuned

we apologise for the delay. we are now back in business. it's the evening break and the players and umpires are off having their teas and sandwiches. TT are on 211/3 with Sherwin Ganga on 18 and Denesh Ramdin yet to get off the mark. Lendl Mark Platter Simmons made a brilliant 107, and Jason Mohammed was 61 not out when he was forced to retire hurt with cramp in his right hand

after 49 over now 184/2: Simmons 101, Mohammed 61 -- partnership 145. the bowlers are finding their range. things have become a bit tight in the last 10 minutes and the pink ball is starting to swing for the pacer and the spin for the slow men

48ov [. . . . . .] 183/2 Simmons 101, Mohammed 60. great maiden from Bishoo. got some to turn, not the pink ball is doing a bit

47ov [1 2nb . . . 1] Simmons 101, J Mohammed 60. brilliant century from Lendl Marl Platter Simmons - his 8th in first-class cricket, and first ton in a match featuring the pink ball!!!

46 ov [. 4 . . . .] Simmons 98, J Mohammed 59. Simmons cuts for a brillaint boundary 2 more for the ton

45 ov [. 1 . . 2 .] 174/2 Simmons 94, J Mohammed 59: Simmons closing in on his ton

correction: T&T on 165/2 -- Simmons 87 off 115 balls, J Mohammed 52 off 101 balls. partnership now 126

40 ov [4 2 1 . . .] 159/2. Simmons 82, Mohammed 52. Simmons cut between slip and keeper for a boundary then the over settled down, good contest developing

39 ov [. . . . . .] 156/2 Simmons 83, J Mohammed 52 -- partnership[ 117. excellent over Eusuan Crandon kept Mohammed in check

The pink ball is taking a beating as it is displayed for the first time. The Trinis are taking a liking to the pink ball. There has been little swing for the pacers and no turn for the slow bowlers... but this is Antigua where we always get a perfect batting surface

Now for the real deal... Trinidad and Tobago are batting brilliantly against Guyana. Score: 147 for 2. Lendl Simmons on 75 and Jason Mohammed on 51

a warm and sun-kissed afternoon here in Wadadli Land. We have a small but colourful crowd here at this wonderful ground. Among the spectators we can see Gravy in the Beach 366 section where Chickie is blasting the music

We apologise for the late start to the live feed. We had some technical problems but now we are in business

welcome to the Sir Vivian Richards Cricket Ground here in Antigua

Apologies. Live commentary is not available due to technical difficulties.

Sir Frank Worrell Cricket Ground, Trinidad

So we have a title race still on our hands as Barbados (57 points) and Jamaica (48 points) are the remaining contenders. Barbados have finished their six matches and Jamaica need to win their remaining match against Trinidad & Tobago to stop Barbados from claiming the 2010 crown. That contest begins next Friday at Progress Park in Grenada. We will provide live text commentary from that crucial showdown as well. Please join us then.

Final scores: Jamaica 226 (David Bernard 55, Tamar Lambert 41; Corey Edwards 6/41, Sulieman Benn 2/69) & 120 (Brenton Parchment 28; Pedro Collins 5/32, Sulieman Benn 4/50). Barbados 293 (Dale Richards 67, Sulieman Benn 54; Tamar Lambert 3/63) & 54/0 (Dale Richards 31 not out, Kraigg Brathwaite 20 not out).

VICTORY: Barbados win by 10 wickets!!!!

9ov [. 1 . . . 4] 54/0: Richards 31*, Brathwaite 20*. Brathwaite ends this one-sided contest with a classic cover drive for four off Dawes that advertises why he is rated so highly.

8ov [. . 1 . 4 .] 49/0: Richards 30*, Brathwaite 16*. Brathwaite late dabs to the vacant third man off Bernard.
