00:01Guyana Amazon Warriors got the better of Warbada's Royals by four wickets in a
00:05Republic Bank CPL match in Bridgetown. Chasing 166 for victory, the Amazon
00:10Warriors lost four wickets inside the power play which leaves captain Imran
00:14Tahir somewhat concerned. We just have to I think see the new ball off and we
00:19always knew that was the plan we had you know after the power play we knew we
00:23got some guys coming in at Meyer, Muin Ali you know if they stay in they had a
00:27left arm spinner and you know you play aggressive against the spin so we had to
00:33be honest with you really good plan but yeah I was just not really happy the way
00:37we started and I think yeah going forward we need to improve in that if we're
00:41thinking to obviously making keep going with this momentum and trying to get into
00:45the qualifiers. After struggling at 34-4 Shea Hope and Duane Pretorius had to put
00:51on a vital 89 run partnership with both getting half centuries. After the game
00:56Skipper Tahir was full of praise for the duo. Shea as long as he's there at the
01:02crease we know he's a seasoned pro he comes and he obviously does what you
01:06require from him and you know just really nice to see he obviously did it again
01:11today even Pretorius better really well obviously he never had a chance because
01:16we've been betting really well from previous year so but we always knew that
01:21a depth in our betting is really really good and especially Moti the way he
01:25board on this deck it was really nice to see. Barbados Royals are in a pickle with
01:30just one point from five matches with a no result helping them open their
01:34account. Their skipper Rahman Powell felt 165 was not a good enough total on the
01:39board. I think from a batting standpoint we lost wicket in crucial stage of the game
01:44you know also we credit after we give them to the guys I think we finished we
01:49finished well as a batting group you know but at the start of the second innings I
01:53felt as if we were 10-15 run shot. Next up for the Royals are the Antigua and
01:58Barbuda Falcons on Friday night in Bridgetown while the Amazon Warriors face TKR
02:03on Saturday at the Providence Stadium.
02:06Winner was now on the Chiefs of Sport.
02:09He gets a wicket now.
