Cricket tournament From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The 2018–19 Regional Four Day Competition was the 53rd edition of the Regional Four Day Competition, the domestic first-class cricket competition for the countries of the Cricket West Indies (CWI). The competition started on 6 December 2018 and concluded on 17 March 2019.[1][2] Six teams contested the tournament – Barbados, Guyana, Jamaica, the Leeward Islands, Trinidad and Tobago, and the Windward Islands.[3] Guyana were the defending champions.[4] The players' draft for the tournament took place in May 2018.[3][5]

Ahead of the final round of fixtures, Guyana had a 23-point lead over their nearest rivals, the Leeward Islands, with the Leeward Islands needing to score the maximum of 24 points in their last game to win the tournament.[6] Guyana were confirmed as champions, after the Leeward Islands were bowled out for 90 runs in the first innings of their final match.[7] The Leeward Islands would then go on to declare their second innings on 83/2, still 18 runs behind Barbados, and therefore lose the match.[8] This was in an attempt to finish ahead of Barbados in the final table,[9] but with a miscalculation on the points required, the Leeward Islands finished 0.2 points behind Barbados.[10]
