KINGSTON – Jamaica Tallawahs overcame a destructive spell from Ravi Rampaul followed by a thrilling, unbeaten half-century from Shoaib Malik to prevail over Barbados Tridents by 19 runs in the Caribbean Premier League yesterday.
Rampaul grabbed four for 18 from his allotted four overs and Rayad Emrit captured three for 35 from his four overs, as the Tallawahs, sent in to bat, posted 147 for eight from their 20 overs at Sabina Park.
