Dwaine Pretorius struck early, removing Sunil Narine for just 1 as Trinbago Knight Riders chased a revised target of 182.

The result was built on Shimron Hetmyer’s remarkable unbeaten 111 off 43 balls, which took Guyana Amazon Warriors to 185-5 from their rain-reduced 16 overs. Nabi did the damage with the ball in the chase, taking 3-20, as Alex Hales’ 55 and Nicholas Pooran’s 43 fell just short.

The win kept Guyana unbeaten in four matches and moved them up to second on the CPL 2026 points table.
