How did the match unfold – a ball‑by‑ball overview?

TKR won the toss and elected to bat first. The opening pair of Dottin and Selman put on a solid 55‑run stand in the first 7 overs, stabilising the innings after a early dot‑ball start. Dottin accelerated in the powerplay, hitting two sixes and three fours before being dismissed for 45. Selman saw the innings through the middle overs, adding 25 runs before a catch at deep mid‑wicket. The lower order contributed quick runs, with a late flurry of boundaries taking the total to 124/5.

When Guyana began their chase, the Warrior’s top order struggled against Selman’s disciplined line. The first wicket fell on the third ball of the innings, and the second wicket arrived within the first over of the second powerplay. Despite a brief resistance from Sultana, who scored 22, the Warriors could not rebuild. The final wicket fell on a dot ball at 70 runs, sealing a 54‑run win for Trinbago.

Why was Shakera Selman’s all‑round performance decisive?

Selman’s dual contribution of 25 runs and three wickets made her the match‑winner. Her economy of 4.00 runs per over kept the Warriors’ scoring rate low, while her wickets came at crucial moments – the first wicket broke the opening partnership, and the third wicket removed the set batswoman Nigar Sultana. Analysts on the WCPL post‑match panel highlighted her swing and variations as the key factors that prevented a chase.

What does this result mean for the WCPL 2022 standings?
