The Guyana Amazon Warriors’ horror run in this year’s edition of the Caribbean Premier League (CPL) continued yesterday, as they crumbled to yet another defeat, this time falling by seven wickets to top of the table Trinbago Knightriders at the Guyana National Stadium, Providence.
Knightriders won the toss and inserted the hosts under the mid-morning glare as the Warriors, in the hunt for early boundaries and a win in front of home fans, found early fireworks off the bat of Chadwick Walton.
He calmed any nerves by easing speedster Ronsford Beaton for consecutive boundaries to take 11 runs off the first over to hand the hosts an ideal start. However, he fell to left arm spinner Khary Pierre in the second over to give Knightriders their first blow with the score on 12.
