A confident Windward Islands team, led by veteran Liam Sebastian, held their first training session yesterday at Sabina Park ahead of their fourth-round Regional Four-day clash against leaders Jamaica at the same venue.

The match begins tomorrow at 10:00 am.

The Windwards, who are lying third in the standings on 29 points, are keen on securing maximum points from Jamaica (35 points), despite the hosts having a perfect record thus far.

"Last year we came here at Sabina Park and Chris Gayle virtually won the game for the Jamaicans with his big hundred. Gayle is not around this time and we believe we have the players who can put pressure on Jamaica and come out victorious," said coach Ian Allen.

The Windward Islands have made one change to their squad with the injured Dalton Polius replaced by returning off-spinner Shane Shillingford.

The ace spinner underwent remedial work on his bowling action after being banned late last year for an illegal action.

After assessing the batting strip, Allen believes the wicket will produce a result, and his game plan is quite simple and that is to outplay Jamaica in every department.

"We will definitely start positive and take it stride by stride, we want to try to put up as much runs on the board and try to restrict the Jamaicans and once we do that I have no doubt we will come out on top," he added.

The Windwards batting is expected to revolve around out-of-favour West Indies left-hander Devon Smith, stylish middle-order batsman Keddy Lesporis, Sunil Ambris and Sebastian, while their bowling will be spearheaded by left-arm seamer Kenroy Peters and Shillingford.

WINDWARD ISLANDS SQUAD (from): Liam Sebastien (captain), Sunil Ambris, Alston Bobb, Romel Currency, Lindon James, Delorn Johnson, Keddy Lesporis, Mervin Matthew, Nelon Pascal, Kenroy Peters, Shane Shillingford, Devon Smith, Tyrone Theophile

	Salma	By intertwining politics with sports, the BCCI has placed international cricket in a precarious position. Fully support the PCB's stance against the hybrid model - especially since Pakistan (despite security concerns) has toured India five times, including a bilateral white-ball series, post-26/11.
