Barbados 92 for eight (Alleyne 38*, Selman 10, Schultz 4-13) beat Guyana 70 all out (Gajnabi 41*, Mangru 11, Herbert-Mayers 3-16) by 22 runs
Barbados booked a place in Friday’s Women’s T20 Blaze final, where they will face the Leeward Islands, following a 22-run win over Guyana at the Arnos Vale Playing Field on Wednesday.
Both teams entered the last game of the league phase with a chance of making it to the championship match. Guyana, however, needed the win along with bonus points. And the left-arm orthodox spin of Kaysia Schultz (4/13) placed them promptly on top, restricting Barbados to 32 for 4 in the ninth over.
Despite the wickets falling at the other end, skipper Aaliyah Alleyne scored freely to bat through the innings, finishing on 38 from 36 balls to give the Barbados bowlers something to work with, getting up to 92 for 8 from their 20 overs.
