Empress 136 for 9 (Henry 41*, Lanning 31, Burns 2-3) beat Amazon Warriors 138 for 7 (Campbelle 56, Grimmond 45, Mlaba 2-15) by one wicket (DLS)
Chinelle Henry pulled off a stunning last-ball heist at Kensington Oval, powering Jamaica Empress to a nail-biting one-wicket victory over Guyana Amazon Warriors in their Limacol WCPL debut.
Needing 17 runs from the final over with Henry well set and three wickets in hand, the Empress found themselves staring down the barrel. With the match hanging in the balance, the drama intensified as two wickets fell via run-outs, with the Empress desperate to score off Warriors captain Chloe Tryon while keeping Henry on strike.
Eight runs were still required from the final two deliveries. Henry then produced the moment of magic, smashing back-to-back sixes to seal a remarkable victory in a contest that swung from one side to the other throughout the game.
