CPL 2020, GAW vs JT Live Score: Both the teams are on two points. (Source: CPL T20)CPL 2020, GAW vs JT Live Cricket Score Online Updates: Guyana Amazon Warriors will take on Jamaica Tallawahs in the second match of the day in the Caribbean Premier League at the Brian Lara Stadium in Trinidad on Saturday.
Guyana Amazon Warriors will hope to build on their win over St Kitts and Nevis Patriots against the fourth-place Tallawahs. Despite losing their first game to the Trinbago Knight Riders, Guyana came out victorious in their second match owing to a Shimron Hetmyer special. On the other hand, Jamaica Tallawahs are yet to find their stride this season even with Andre Russell in their side. Glenn Phillips and Mujeeb ur Rehman have been the stand-out performers for the Jamaican franchise.
Ross Taylor comes on, and he faces no danger on the hattrick ball as Mujeeb bowls it wide. GAW are 57/2 after 6 overs.
DOUBLE BREAKTHROUGH! Mujeeb breaks the opening stand as he dismisses the dangerous Brandon King on 29 by uprooting his wickets. On comes Hetmyer, and he is clean bowled! Mujeeb on a hattrick! GAW are 56/2 after 5.5 overs.
Andre Russell is brought in action by Jamaica, but he is slapped through the covers for a four on his second ball by the in-form King. His opening partner Hemraj timed another perfectly later in the over. 11 runs off the over. GAW are 55/0 after 5 overs.
Chandrapaul Hemraj (7*) joins in on the fun as he hits Edwards for a four to third man. GAW are 37/0 after 3 overs.
After a timid opening over, Brandon King (22*) has set it on fire for Guyana. Facing Oshane Thomas, the opener smacks him for a massive six on the first ball of the over. A four to deep-mid wicket and a six later, the batsman hits the pacer for another maximum on a no-ball. Utilising the free hit, he flicks the next delivery over the cordon for another four. GAW are 28/0 after 2 overs.
So the pitch roller accidentally rolled a ball into the surface creating a big hole! When has this happened before? Really strange!

Jamaica Tallawahs have won the toss and have opted to field.
Andre Russell, one of the best T20 players in the world, has misfired twice and has been striking below 100. Jermaine Blackwood might replace the out-of-form Nicholas Kirton. Glenn Phillips has been the pick with scores of 42 and 58 in two games. On the other hand, Mujeeb Ur Rahman and Sandip Lamichhane have been economical in both the matches and been taking wickets in tandem.
Shimron Hetmyer is leading the charts with 134 runs and consecutive half-centuries. However, openers Brandon King and Chandrapaul Hemraj have not been able to fire at the start. Nicholas Pooran should look to perform parallel to his reputation. With the ball, Keemo Paul was bang on target in their last match and bagged a 4-wicket haul giving just 19 runs.
Guyana, captained by Chris Green, lost the rain-marred campaign opener but they came back strongly in their next outing against the Patriots. Jamaica, on the other hand, led by Rovman Powell won the first game only to be defeated in the second outing.
