Chasing 220 for a win, Barbados Royals skipper Rovman Powell stepped out of his crease to nudge his rival skipper Imran Tahir onto his leg side. However, Powell merely ended up yorking himself as the Royals’ run-chase troubles worsened at 79-5 in 10.1 overs.

Imran Tahir, who is known for his over-the-top running celebration, justified his reputation as he ran all the way towards the boundary to celebrate Rovman Powell’s downfall in front of cheering Guyana Amazon Warriors fans at Guyana’s Providence Stadium.

Imran Tahir had also dismissed Rivaldo Clarke earlier in the innings to claim sensational figures of 2-22 from three overs.

Earlier in the match, the Warriors mounted 219-8 courtesies of splendid half-centuries from Shai Hope (71 off 37) and Shimron Hetmyer (57 off 34).
