    CPL: Motie’s Four-for Powers Amazon Warriors Into Final

    By IANS News September 18, 2025 • 11:24 AM View: 845
    West Indies Cricket: Gudakesh Motie produced a devastating spell of left-arm spin to guide Guyana Amazon Warriors into their third consecutive Caribbean Premier League final, dismantling St Lucia Kings in Qualifier 1 at Providence Stadium, Guyana. Motie’s 4-wicket haul triggered a dramatic collapse as the defending champions fell short in their chase of 158, handing Warriors a convincing win and a ticket to Sunday’s title clash

    Put in to bat, Warriors’ innings seemed to be stalling at 116 for 6 in the 16th over. But a blistering lower-order assault from Romario Shepherd (21 off 8) and Dwaine Pretorius (17 off 8) lifted them to a competitive 157, with 41 runs coming in the last four overs. Shai Hope’s anchoring 32 off 29 kept the innings together after Moeen Ali’s dismissal left the middle order exposed.

    The Kings’ reply quickly unraveled. Pretorius struck twice in the opening exchanges, removing Tim Seifert and Ackeem Auguste, while Shepherd dismissed Johnson Charles to leave them reeling at 3 for 3 inside three overs. A mini-recovery from Roston Chase and Aaron Jones steadied matters to 37 for 3 after the powerplay, keeping them close to Warriors’ 45 for 1 at the same stage.
