Dominica successfully defended its title in the WINLOTT\/Windward Islands Under-19 Cricket tournament, securing a 23-run victory over St. Vincent and the Grenadines at Benjamin Park on Saturday, April 18, 2026.<\/p>\n

It is reported that in another scheduled match, Grenada was set to face Saint Lucia at the Geneva Playing Field, but the game never got underway. Persistent showers left the already damp surface waterlogged, and umpires ultimately called it off without a ball being bowled.<\/p>\n

By the end of the tournament, Dominica topped the standings with 4 wins and 1 loss, finishing on 9 points to claim the championship. Saint Lucia followed closely in second place, recording 3 wins, 1 defeat, and 2 matches that ended with no result, giving them a total of 8 points.<\/p>\n

St. Vincent and the Grenadines finished third with 2 victories and 4 losses, earning 4 points. Grenada placed fourth in the four-team competition, managing 1 win, 1 no result, and 4 defeats to finish on 2 points.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Dominica successfully defended its title in the WINLOTT\/Windward Islands Under-19 Cricket tournament, securing a 23-run victory over St. Vincent and the Grenadines at Benjamin Park on Saturday, April 18, 2026.
