Warriors secure win over Knight Riders

The Guyana Amazon Warriors kept their playoff hopes alive with a 25 run win over the Trinbago Knight Riders in the 2026 Limacol WCPL. Runs for Shermaine Campbell and wickets from Shabnim Ismail and Shamillia Connell set up the win which leaves all teams still in contention for this year’s title.

The Amazon Warriors innings started brightly enough with 17-year-old opening batter, Eboni Brathwaite, taking the attack to a very strong Knight Riders bowling attack. She smacked the hugely experienced Marizanne Kapp for six but the South African came back to bowl her with one that nipped back for 13 from 6.

In the face of the pace bowling of Kapp and Shikha Pandey the Amazon Warriors really struggled to match Brathwaite’s cameo. Shermaine Campbelle continued her fine form and she backed up the half century she made in the Amazon Warriors opening match with 31 from 28 balls in this game.
