T&T Red Force cap­tain Joshua Da Sil­va fell 14 runs short of what could have been his fourth straight First Class hun­dred late last evening in an ef­fort to bring his team clos­er to the Ja­maica Scor­pi­ons' first in­nings to­tal of 372 at the Bri­an Lara Crick­et Acad­e­my in Tarou­ba, San Fer­nan­do, yes­ter­day.

Ja­maica re­sumed day two on 274 for 6 with Javelle Glenn in 99 and Ab­hi­jai Mans­ingh on 61. Glenn scored his hun­dred ear­ly in the day, but the Scor­pi­ons lost Mans­ingh ear­ly in the first ses­sion, as the Red Force in­ter­rupt­ed the run-scor­ing with four wick­ets in the morn­ing ses­sion.

Ja­maica were bowled out for 372 with Glenn fin­ish­ing on 140 not out.

The Red Force start­ed mis­er­ably and were two for two with both open­ers, Cephas Coop­er and Kamil Pooran both dis­missed for ducks.

In-form mid­dle or­der bats­man Ja­son Mo­hammed could not save them as he made on­ly 10 as the Red Force were re­duced to 30 for four and 39 for five when Khary Pierre was out.

Da Sil­va, who came out to bat on the back of three con­sec­u­tive hun­dreds lost part­ners reg­u­lar­ly but got sup­port from Yan­nic Cari­ah who re­turned to the mid­dle af­ter re­tir­ing hurt. But the cap­tain and wick­et­keep­er was last out when he was caught by Bran­don King off the bowl­ing of Brad Barnes.

The Red Force were even­tu­al­ly bowled out for 171, still 201 runs be­hind in the fi­nal ses­sion af­ter din­ner.
