Jamaica Tallawahs Register Their 3rd CPL 2022 Win After Defeating Tinbago Knight Riders By 34 Runs
Jamaica Tallawahs have now won three of their first four games, while Trinbago have lost two successive matches.
The Jamaica Tallawahs secured their third victory of the 2022 Hero Caribbean Premier League (CPL) season with a win over Trinbago Knight Riders by 34 runs.
The Trinbago Knight Riders won the toss and chose to field. Then their bowler Ravi Rampaul made early inroads by removing both Jamaica openers, Brandon King and Kennar Lewis. However, Tallawahs captain Rovman Powell led by example, hitting ten boundaries in his innings of 67 to take his side to 153/7 after 20 overs.

Powell combined with Raymon Reifer in a 90-run partnership stand to help their side. Sunil Narine bowled exceptionally well and was rewarded with the wickets of both Powell and Fabian Allen to restrict scoring in the final overs, with the Tallawahs setting a target of 154 to win.
Trinbago Knight Riders in turn lost the wickets of Sunil Narine and Tion Webster early on, and largely due to superb bowling spells from Mohammad Amir and Imad Wasim. They were unable to find any fluency as they consistently lost wickets, ending up on 119/8 and losing by 34 runs.
Trinbago Knight Riders once again utilised Narine at the top of the order but he was bowled in the first over by Amir. After Webster was run-out, Colin Munro and Tim Seifert attempted to rebuild but eventually, both lost their wickets.
Amir struck again to remove Nicholas Pooran as the Knight Riders were unable to build any partnerships, with Kieron Pollard and Andre Russell also falling. In the end, they scored 119/8, falling 34 runs short of their target.
