Jamaica Tallawahs Preview
Jamaica Tallawahs sit at the bottom of the points table with 2 wins in 9 matches this season. Going into their last league stage match, Tallawahs would look forward to finishing the season on a high. Jamaica has been the most inconsistent side with their batsmen and bowlers finding and losing their form every other match. In a recent away game against Barbados Tridents, the Jamaican batting order collapsed and the team finished with 127-10 batting first.
However, Imran Khan and Shamar Springer saved the day for the Tallawahs picking up 3 wickets each as Jamaica defended the total and won by 5 runs. In the very next match, Dwayne Smith scored a fifty for JT and the side finished with 165-7 batting first against St Lucia Zouks. While the Jamaican bowling attack failed to defend the total on this occasion, Imran Khan picked 2 for 34.
