Dwayne Smith's half-century was backed up by a collective bowling effort as Barbados Tridents beat Jamaica Tallawahs by 16 runs at the Kensington Oval. Robin Peterson was named Man of the Match for taking 3 for 26 to trip up Tallawahs' chase of 162.

Smith struck 56 off 53 balls after Tridents captain Kieron Pollard won the toss and chose to bat. Smith and Munaweera set the tone, adding 57 for the first wicket. Shoaib Malik then built on the platform, assembling 60 for the second wicket with Smith, who brought up his fifty off 44 balls with a single in the 14th over.
