Earlier in the match, the Guyana Amazon Warriors scored 148 runs after being invited to bat first. The Trinbago Knight Riders spinners, particularly Waqar Salamkheil and Sunil Narine, dominated the game, taking 5 wickets. Key batters for the Warriors, including Shai Hope and Shimron Hetmyer, failed to make significant contributions, while Tim Robinson scored 34 runs. Romario Shepherd and Dwaine Pretorius provided a strong recovery with a partnership over 50 runs, with Shepherd finishing on 50 not out and they helped their side reach a par total of 148 runs.
Guyana Amazon Warriors were good with the ball but in parts. Nathan Sowter was the standout bowler for them, claiming 2 wickets for 37 runs in 4 overs. Moeen Ali delivered an impressive spell, taking 1 wicket for just 5 runs in 2 overs. Shamar Joseph also contributed with a wicket, while Keemo Paul conceded more runs but managed to take a wicket towards the end of the innings. Despite their efforts, the Guyana Amazon Warriors fell short of 10-15 runs.
The Trinbago Knight Riders faced significant challenges during the middle overs of their innings, as their scoring momentum stalled. Tim David, however, demonstrated his prowess in the final over of the match to get his side over the line. The turning point, however, was from Andre Russell, whose remarkable innings included four sixes, three of which came in a 17th over.
What a game of cricket we have witnessed here at the Queen's Park Oval, Trinidad! The momentum of the game shifted from one corner to another and in the end, it was the Trinbago Knight Riders who came out on top in the final over. Guyana Amazon Warriors will be upset with their performance, as they had the game in their hands but they just missed the line!
