In a thrilling finish to the Caribbean Premier League 2024 league stage, Nicholas Pooran’s explosive century (101 off 59 balls) guided Trinbago Knight Riders (TKR) to a comprehensive 74-run victory over Guyana Amazon Warriors (GAW). Despite this dominant win, TKR fell just short of a top-two finish, ending the league stage in third place due to a lower Net Run Rate (NRR) than Saint Lucia Kings, both having 14 points. Guyana Amazon Warriors, despite their loss, secured the top position on the table.
Pooran’s blistering knock, which included 9 fours and 8 sixes, anchored TKR’s impressive total of 211/5. Jason Roy (34) provided crucial support as the two forged a 152-run partnership. GAW's chase faltered quickly, with wickets tumbling at regular intervals. Terrance Hinds (3-17), Waqar Salamkheil (3-26), and Nathan Edwards (2-30) were clinical with the ball, restricting GAW to 137 all out. Rahmanullah Gurbaz’s 36 and Shai Hope’s 28 provided some resistance, but it wasn’t enough to challenge TKR’s total.
This match had significant playoff implications, as GAW secured a spot in Qualifier 1, while TKR will face Barbados Royals in the Eliminator.
