Match 23 of the Caribbean Premier League, 2024 will see the Guyana Amazon Warriors go against the Antigua & Barbuda Falcons. The former won a controversial last game against the Trinbago Knight Riders involving the dismissal of Imad Wasim, keeping them just in contention for the playoff race. They have won just three out of their nine games played. In the last game, their bowlers performed strongly, with Fabian Allen and Shamar Springer claiming two wickets each, while Mohammad Amir, Chris Green, and Joshua James took one wicket apiece, limiting the Knight Riders to a modest total of 134 runs. In reply, the Falcons faced some early setbacks but Justin Greaves anchored the innings with a solid 46 before retiring out. After surviving a close controversial LBW shout, Hassan Khan added brisk runs with Imad Wasim. The Guyana Amazon Warriors are currently placed in the playoff spot on the table but the difference between them and their opponents down below at fifth, Antigua is just 2 points. Guyana started strong but has lost its way a bit in the last few games. Even in their latest victory against the Patriots, the batting order failed miserably with Shimron bailing them out with an exceptionally crafted half-century. The bowling looks no concern for them and the return of Tahir has given them the much-needed injection of optimism. Can Guyana Amazon Warriors strengthen their playoff chances or will Antigua & Barbuda Falcons continue to pile the pressure on teams above them? We shall find out soon.
