The Trinidad Express reports:-
“Trinidad and Tobago followed up Tuesday’s big three-day match win over Canada with a nine-wicket whipping in the T20 version of the game at Guaracara Park in Pointe-a-Pierre on Wednesday night.
After limiting the visitors to 142 for four on a decent batting strip despite a pair of rain breaks, T&T cantered home to 143 for one in 16.1 overs under the cool, calm and collected batting of two 21-year-olds, number three batsman Kjorn Ottley and opener Evin Lewis.”
