Man of the Match and Guyana Amazon Warriors skipper Imran Tahir says that it was difficult to grip the ball and that he was looking to bowl more dots and think about wickets. Adds that it came out nicely and he is pleased that his side got the job done. Shares that he had to take the responsibility to bowl in the death overs and didn’t want the younger guys to feel the pressure. Closes by saying that he is happy with the win and wants to carry on going forward.
Kieron Pollard says that they got what they wanted as that knock from Keacy Carty was something that would help the side going ahead in terms of confidence in the lad. Mentions that they were short by 20-30 runs as they lost way too many wickets at the depth. Adds that he doesn't have an update on Martin Guptill as he pulled up after the first run so they will have to analyse Martin. Adds that Akeal Hosein and Terrance Hinds bowled well in pressure situations and for them all in all it was a good game of cricket.
Stay tuned for the presentation...
Earlier in the game, after being asked to bat first Trinbago Knight Riders managed to score 176 thanks to a brilliant knock of 83 by Keacy Carty. They could have managed a lot more but a late flurry of wickets in the last couple of overs held things back for the Trinbago Knight Riders. Mark Deyal and Chadwick Walton supported the youngster well and they played good cameos as well. Imran Tahir was unplayable for the Trinbago Knight Riders batters as he managed to pick up 3 while Dwaine Pretorius, Romario Shepherd, and Keemo Paul took a wicket each. The injury of Keemo Paul is a worrying thing for the Warriors.
The bowling was a bit waivered from the Trinbago Knight Riders as they leaked rus both sides of the ground. Terrance Hinds was the pick of the bowlers as he gave away runs at an economy under 7. Apart from Samit Patel who was expensive and wicketless too, every other bowler picked up a wicket. A good outing for the Guyana Amazon Warriors as they win this one and get back to winning ways by defeating the Trinbago Knight Riders by 6 wickets. The only negative for them would be the injury sustained by Keemo Paul.
Chasing a challenging total of 177 the Warriors came out all guns blazing as the dynamic duo of Saim Ayub and Odean Smith smashed 56 in the first 6 overs. The first wicket partnership soon came to an end on 56 as Saim Ayub was dismissed on 37. It was then the Odean Smith show he was dropped 3 times and he just did not look back and swung for everything and connected with the majority of those. Shai Hope played the perfect anchor to Odean Smith and once he departed it was all about Shai Hope as he switched gears in a flash. Shai Hope was also the top scorer for the Warriors as he smashed 54 runs. Odean Smith and Saim Ayub played good cameos of 44 and 37 respectively.
Guyana Amazon Warriors have defeated the Trinbago Knight Riders by 6 wickets and prior to Qualifier 1, they have completed the double over Trinbago Knight Riders this season.

That's it! Guyana Amazon Warriors win by 7 wickets with 10 balls to spare. A thoroughly professional performance by the Warriors. A low full toss tailing down the leg. Dwaine Pretorius turns it to short fine leg and gets the job done in style!
