The Guyana Amazon Warriors got off the hook in their last encounter against St Kitts and Nevis Patriots courtesy of a superstar performance by Nicholas Pooran who blasted a 45-ball century to see his side over the line. It was his maiden T20 ton.
The Warriors were looking in danger of conceding their fifth loss of the tournament following another top-order blip after being reduced to 25-3 in pursuit of 151 for victory. However, they were spared the blushes after Pooran’s superb innings and Ross Taylor’s crafty supporting knock. The duo shared an unbroken stand of 128 runs to usher the side to a memorable and much-needed win.
However, the coaching and management staff will know that they may have to retool the top order to find more success down the road.
