Playing at Kensington Oval on Friday, they held their nerve during a thrilling run chase to defeat crowd favourites Guyana Amazon Warriors by five wickets, with three balls remaining in the high-scoring thriller.

Set a challenging 207 to win on a wicket that has proven challenging for batsmen, the Kingsmen got off to a blistering start, racing to 75 for one at the end of the powerplay.
