On paper, the game was listed as a home match for the Tallawahs, but Lauderhill has provided anything but a home-field advantage for Andre Russell’s team, who had just one win in four matches coming into the venue on Saturday night.

A heavily partisan Amazon Warriors crowd of about 4,000 provided a hostile reception to the Tallawahs and fueled the visitors to 209 for 7, the highest CPL total made at the venue, eclipsing the 206 made by St Lucia Zouks against the Tallawahs in the very first CPL match played in Lauderhill in 2016.

Guyana Amazon Warriors 209 for 7 (Hetmyer 100, Malik 50) beat Jamaica Tallawahs 138 (Phillips 43, Taylor 30, Green 2-19) by 71 runs
