Amla and Dwayne Bravo in record stand as TKR win by 11 runs

Port of Spain, Jul 2 (UNI) A world record fifth-wicket stand between Hashim Amla (81, 54b, 5x4s, 4x6s) and Dwayne Bravo (66 not out, 46b, 3x4s, 4x6s) rescued the Trinbago Knight Riders in their Hero Caribbean Premier League (CPL) match against Barbados Tridents. Having lost four wickets for 20 runs inside the first five overs the Knight Riders looked like they were going to collapse to an uncompetitive score. Trinbago Knight Riders made 170 for 5 in 20 overs and restricted Barbados Tridents to 159 for 8 in 20 overs nd won by 11 runs.
The hugely experienced pairing of Amla and Bravo then put together a match winning stand of 150 in 92 balls. Amla was just superb as he made 81 from 54, bringing up his half century from 42 balls. This was the best fifth wicket stand in the history of T20 cricket, the best ever partnership for Trinbago Knight Riders and the third highest stand ever in Hero CPL. The previous best was of 149 between Takawale and Bahutule in Indian Domestic Cricket match in 2007.
Amla was pulling out all of the shots, but it was against fellow South African Wayne Parnell that he was most brutal. Going into his last over Parnell had conceded just 15 runs before Amla plundered 20 more off his last, including two Hero Maximums.
