T&T (Anisa 29*, Kirby 28, Noel 3-15) 95 for 7 beat Windwards 79 all out (Glasgow 21, Fletcher 14, Anisa 3-10) by 16 runs
Veteran spinner Anisa Mohammed and protégé Samara Ramnath grabbed three wickets apiece to help Trinidad and Tobago defeat the Windward Islands by 16 runs in Round 2 of Cricket West Indies’ Women’s T20 Blaze earlier on Thursday. The win gave T&T their first points of the competition while simultaneously condemning the Windwards to a second consecutive defeat.
With 95 runs on the board, on a wicket conducive to spin, captain Karishma Ramharack tossed the new ball to Mohammed (3-10). The 37-year-old responded immediately, bowling Earnisha Fontaine for a duck with the third delivery of the innings.
She then claimed a brilliant catch off her own bowling, diving away to her left to dismiss Zaida James (7) off the final ball of her second over, with the score at 8 for 2.
