Jamaica Tallawahs are on the bottom end of the points table with one win and five losses. They have been affected by injury woes which have hurt their chances in the season. Tallawahs bowlers were hit all over the park yesterday resulting in a target of 219. Andre Russell and Jade Dernbach took two scalps each for the team. In the chase, Jamaica batsmen failed to tackle the spin attack of Warriors and collapsed on 137 runs. Russell once again starred with the bat along with Glenn Phillips with scores of 40 runs each. They will hope to put their best effort into remaining encounters to stay alive in CPL 2019.
