Jamaica Women crowned Super50 Cup champions

KINGSTOWN, St Vincent:

Jamaica Women leapt from fifth position to claim the CG United Women's Super50 Cup title for the sixth time in dramatic fashion in one of the most keenly contested competitions in recent memory.

Entering the final round in fifth position, Jamaica capitalised on a slip by leaders Windward Islands Women to take the title by just one point following the completion of three rounds of action.

The final standings reflected the competitiveness of the tournament, with the top four positions separated by just two points.

With the Windward Islands falling to Guyana Women, Jamaica's dominant eight-wicket victory over the winless Leeward Islands Women earned them crucial bonus points and catapulted them to 21 points, one more than second-place Windwards and third-place Guyana, who both ended on 20 points.

It was Jamaica Women's first Super50 Cup title since 2024.

Defending champions Trinidad and Tobago Women, who were also in the running to lift the title after defeating Barbados Women in their final match, placed fourth on 19 points.

Barbados, who entered the final round in second position, dropped all the way to fifth with the defeat to finish on 13 points, with the Leeward Islands bringing up the rear on seven points after losing all three of their matches.
