Mahmudullah fails but St Kitts sail

Mahmudullah Riyad was dismissed after scoring 16 runs in his first game for St Kitts and Nevis Patriots in a Caribbean Premier League encounter against Trinbago Knight Riders at the Port of Spain on Saturday.

Coming in at number six in the 16th over, Mahmudullah struck a six and a boundary off Sunil Narine's bowling before the right-hander was ultimately dismissed in the same over on 16 runs off ten deliveries. Despite the loss, St Kitts eventually posted a huge total of 203 for 7 after electing to bat and won the match by 42 runs.

In their chase, Trinbago ended up scoring 161 for 8 in 20 overs with Mahmudullah conceding five runs from a single over as his side returned to winning ways.
