Trinbago Knight Riders (TKR) ended the unbeaten run of the Guyana Amazon Warriors with a seven-run victory in the Caribbean Premier League (CPL) on Sunday night. A classy half-century from Hashim Amla and some big hitting at the back end of the innings from Dwayne Bravo took the Knight Riders to 151 for 4 wickets, the second highest total ever made on this ground in Hero CPL matches.

To win this match the Amazon Warriors would have to rewrite the Providence record books and they ended up pretty close to doing just that. New Zealander Anton Devcich, brought into the side for the rested Brendon McCullum, opened the bowling with his off-spin and he picked up two early wickets and that put the Knight Riders in charge, but the Amazon Warriors fought right to the end.
