Vistors fight back after Scorpions mammoth 457

Barbados Pride mounted a resolute reply after Jamaica Scorpions piled up a towering 457 on a rain-hit second day of their West Indies Championship clash at Sabina Park yesterday. Resuming on 358 for four, the Scorpions looked poised to push past 500, but the Pride hit back with timely strikes to keep the damage in check. Still, the Jamaicans achieved a rare feat. The last time they crossed 400 against Barbados was back in 2005 at Chedwin Park during the Carib Beer Cup, when they declared on 522 for nine and went on to win.
