The Caribbean Premier League (CPL) 2024 final at the Providence Stadium, Guyana, saw a contest between Saint Lucia Kings and Guyana Amazon Warriors on October 6, 2024. In a turn of events, Saint Lucia Kings claimed their first-ever CPL title with a six-wicket win, chasing down the Warriors’ modest total of 138 in 18.1 overs.
Guyana Amazon Warriors Struggle to Post a Defendable Total
The Warriors won the toss and elected to bat first, aiming to set a challenging target for the Kings. However, the Saint Lucia bowlers, led by excellent spells from their pacers, restricted Guyana to a modest 138/8 in 20 overs. Despite a late surge, where Guyana managed to add 36 runs in the final two overs, their innings struggled to gather momentum. Key batsmen like Shimron Hetmyer and Romario Shepherd were kept in check by tight bowling. The Warriors’ middle-order collapse and inability to build partnerships saw them falter at crucial moments.
Saint Lucia Kings’ Fightback: Battling Through Adversity in CPL 2024 Final
Chasing 139 for victory, the Saint Lucia Kings were under immense pressure as the Warriors’ bowlers started brilliantly. By the end of the 10th over, the Kings were reeling at 51/4, having lost crucial wickets including Faf du Plessis, Johnson Charles, and Tim Seifert. Imran Tahir and Romario Shepherd played key roles in keeping the Kings’ chase under control. The Kings struggled to score boundaries for a stretch of 61 balls, and with tension rising in the dugout, it appeared that Guyana might pull off a defense.
As the pressure mounted, Guyana’s bowlers faltered in the death overs. Romario Shepherd and Dwaine Pretorius leaked runs, allowing Chase and Jones to close in on the target. With Saint Lucia needing just 19 runs from 18 balls, Jones hammered a four and a six to bring the Kings within striking distance. Chase then finished the job with a boundary, sparking wild celebrations as the Kings sealed the win with 11 balls to spare. The final score read 139/4 in 18.1 overs, with Aaron Jones remaining unbeaten on 48 off 30 balls and Chase contributing a vital 39 off 22 deliveries.
