Hayley Matthew got out for the first time this season after playing two back-to-back match winnings knocks in the first two games.

Guyana failed to chase 102 in 20 overs
The score was as easy as cakewalk, but unfortunately Guyana Amazon Warriors women failed to chase that target too.
There were still some hopes left despite losing half of their side for 44 in 11.1 overs, but a 17-run partnership in next six overs between Ashwini Munisar 14 off 30, and Natasha McLean 20 off 23, ruined Guyana chance to stay in the game, as they fell short by 17 runs.
