Yannic Cariah’s all-round show helps Trinidad and Tobago topple the Leeward Islands

In the 15th match of the Super50 Cup 2023, Trinidad and Tobago won the toss and opted to bowl first. The Leeward Islands got off to a wonderful start, thanks to their openers Kieran Powell (75) and Justin Greaves (58). But after their departures, the other batters faltered as they lost their eight wickets in just 88 runs to get bundled out on 198.

Trinidad and Tobago bowlers bowled brilliantly and were led by Yannic Cariah, who picked up a fifer. Sunil Narine also registered figures of 3/30 in his 9.2 overs, which included four maidens.

In reply, the Trinidad and Tobago got off to a shaky start. They were reeling at 44/4 before Jason Mohammed (41) and Cariah (45*) led the recovery work. The game went down to the wire and Sunil Narine played a fantastic cameo of 33* off 16 balls to take Trinidad and Tobago across the line in the 46th over along with Cariah.

The Leeward Islands picked up seven wickets in total but it wasn’t enough as they failed to defend the total. Alzarri Joseph and Hayden Walsh picked up three scalps each for the Leeward Islands but failed to knock over the Trinidad and Tobago, who managed to hold their nerves and emerge victorious.
