Malik’s presence kept Hemraj calm

Chandrapaul Hemraj bursts out in joy after smashing a six to win the match for Guyana Amazon Warriors and bring up his maiden T20 century.

Guyana Amazon Warriors’ opener, Chandrapaul Hemraj revealed that it was Shoaib Malik’s presence at the crease that allowed him to reach his maiden T20 century.

The 28-year-old left-hander needed one run to get to triple figures and one for Warriors to reach their target against Barbados Royals. He reached both landmarks by hitting a six.

Hemraj had earlier added 103 runs for the opening stand with Brandon King in their chase of 131 for victory.
