On 6 October 2018, Chris Gayle played in his final List A cricket match for Jamaica, scoring a century, with Jamaica beating Barbados by 33 runs.[9][10]
Following the conclusion of the group stage, Guyana and Trinidad and Tobago from Group A along with Combined Campuses and Colleges and Jamaica from Group B had all progressed to the knockout stage of the competition.[11]
In the first semi-final, Guyana beat Jamaica by one wicket, with Guyana's captain, Leon Johnson, scoring his first century in List A cricket.[12] In the second semi-final, Combined Campuses and Colleges beat Trinidad and Tobago by seven wickets, with Akeem Jordan taking a five-wicket haul.[13]
In the final, Combined Campuses and Colleges beat Guyana by six wickets to win their first Regional Super50 title.[14][15]
