Russell's Fastest CPL Fifty Powers Jamaica To A 120 Run Win Over Saint Lucia

By Sahil Mathur August 28, 2021 • 11:31 AM View: 1626

It was an opening day of missed opportunities for the Saint Lucia Kings in the 2021 Caribbean Premier League, as they suffered a loss against the Jamaica Tallawahs at the Warner Park Stadium in St.Kitts. The Kings bowlers proved to be expensive on the day, and despite the best efforts of Tim David to salvage the innings with his glitzy half-century, it was the Jamaica Tallawahs who started off on a winning note in CPL 2021. 

Bowling first on the day, the first couple of overs proved expensive for the Kings, as Tallawahs opener Kennar Lewis latched onto the bowling of Wahab Riaz and Keemo Paul. To arrest the flow of runs, Faf du Plessis decided to introduce the spin of Usman Qadir early, but the move backfired as the leggie leaked 17 runs off his first over with Chadwick Walton getting two fours and a six.
