Fast bowler Sohail Tanvir and left-arm spinner Veerasammy Permaul claimed five wickets between them to help set up a seven-wicket victory for Guyana Amazon Warriors against Jamaica Tallawahs in a top-of-the-table clash at Providence on Thursday. After skittling Tallawahs for 100 in 18 overs, Amazon Warriors scraped to the target in as many overs on a typically slow Providence surface. Guyana now have three wins in three matches, having beaten St Kitts and Nevis Patriots, and Trinbago Knight Riders.

Tanvir laid down the marker, having Chris Gayle, who smashed 108* in his previous match, lbw off the second ball, with an inswinger. Permaul then struck twice in two balls, in the fifth over, removing Kumar Sangakkara (9) and Chadwick Walton (12). Tallawahs crawled to 29 for 3 at the end of the Powerplay, having scored only two boundaries during that period.

Three boundaries then came in a space of eight balls as Rovman Powell and Shakib Al Hasan threatened to mount a recovery. Powell and Shakib lofted Australia legspinner Adam Zampa for sixes down the ground, after Powell had hit a four over Permaul’s head.

Shakib, however, miscued a lofted hit and holed out to deep midwicket, off Permaul in the 13th over. Zampa also struck back, undoing Nkrumah Bonner and Andre McArthy for ducks in the following over to leave the visitors at 80 for 6. The lower order also folded, and Powell was the ninth batsman to be dismissed, for 38. Barring Powell, only Shakib managed to pass 20.

The chase wasn’t easy for Amazon Warriors. They had fared worse in the Powerplay, scoring 13, while losing captain Martin Guptill and Dwayne Smith to Pakistan left-arm spinner Imad Wasim, who finished with figures of 2 for 6. Chris Lynn and Jason Mohammed, however, settled Amazon Warriors with a 42-run partnership for the third wicket in 9.2 overs. The stand ended when Mohammed was pinned lbw for 22 by Shakib. The wicket hardly dented the hosts’ momentum, as Lynn and Anthony Bramble added 48 in 4.4 overs, including six boundaries to seal the chase.

Permaul bagged the Man-of-the-Match award for his career-best T20 figures of 3-20, and said that he had focused on bowling a tight line.

“The two wickets that I picked up earlier really set up Jamaica and we kept bowling consistently, picking up wickets at the crucial stages of the game,” he said.

“It is important to bowl wicket-to-wicket [at Providence]; we know the conditions very well. It [The pitch] is a bit two-paced and keeps low.”

Amazon Warriors will look to extend their winning streak when they face Patriots at home on Saturday. Tallawahs have three days to regroup before they take on Barbados Tridents at Bridgetown on Monday.
