Miserly Taylor helps Tallawahs beat Tridents

 

Jerome Taylor's economical spell ensured the Barbados Tridents couldn't overhaul the Jamaica Tallawahs total of 147 for 9 in a 19-run win for the defending CPL champions in Kingston. Man-of-the-Match Taylor had figures of 3-0-3-2 entering the final over with 28 needed to win for the Tridents but only a single was scored off the first two balls to clinch a victory for the Tallawahs as Taylor ended with 2 for 11 from four overs.

 

Zouks win leaves Hawksbills in CPL cellar

 

The St Lucia Zouks outlasted the Antigua Hawksbills, and plenty of island rain, to bring their home fans a long awaited first win of the season in a five-wicket victory at Beausejour Stadium in Gros Islet on Sunday. The Zouks chased down a Duckworth-Lewis target of 106 with 15 balls to spare after the Hawksbills made 103 for 6 in a match reduced to 16 overs following a series of rain delays. The Hawksbills are now the only winless team remaining in the CPL.
