Pitch: 119
Toss: West Indies A
Most of West Indies A batsmen contributed to a strong first innings total of 342/6.
Keeper Browne scored an unbeaten hundred, and added an unbroken 137* for the 7th wicket with allrounder Ottis Gibson, who made an unbeaten 54*.
The home side slipped to 107/6 in reply, giving West Indies A hopes of enforcing the follow on, but the lower order, lead by 69 to Wassan, more than doubled the score.
Fast bowler Tony Gray took 6-53 in his best performance of the tour, to send a warning to India A before the 3rd Unofficial Test.
The match was predictably Drawn, but Gray and Browne had at least given the West Indies A side something to feel pleased about going into 3 back to back Unofficial Tests to finish the tour.
