Jamaica Tallawahs blow past Antigua Hawksbills

Fast bowler Jerome Taylor bagged four wickets while captain Chris Gayle hit a half century to lift the Jamaica Tallawahs to a seven-wicket win over the Antigua Hawksbills, under the Duckworth/Lewis scoring method, at Sabina Park yesterday.

Taylor, playing in his first season for the team, picked up four for 18 off three overs to help restrict the Hawksbills to 89 for nine off 17 overs, after rain had interrupted play.

Tridends vs Zouks

An excellent crowd at the Beausejour Stadium was treated to a roller coaster match in the Limacol Caribbean Premier League but not a home win as the St. Lucia Zouks lost to the Barbados Tridents.

The fastest fifty of the tournament from Sohail Tanvir set up the target, and then some truly quick bowling from 19 year old Ray Jordan took them close but it was not to be. A brilliantly paced knock from Kieron Pollard was enough to see his side home but victory was far from certain until the winning runs were scored.
