The latest edition of the Caribbean Premier League is about to draw to a close. The CPL fans are having a great time, with the cricket that is being put on display. The teams are fighting hard to make an impact. The quality of the game has improved in the Caribbean and this is visible with the level of performance.
Many of the West Indian players have gone in foreign leagues and made a name for themselves. Further, the Windies have won a couple of T20 World Cups, which is the highest by any nation so far. This is a great achievement and it brings back memories of their best years.
Keeping that in mind, fast-bowling is a trend that has been embraced by the nation for a long-long time. It is an art form that has been kept alive in the region for decades.
The Video Of The Best Bowled Dismissal In The CPL That Went Viral On Social Media
A brilliantly bowled dismissal that knocked all the stumps out of the ground. Such a brilliant ball by Odean Smith to spend the batsmen packing home. It was just what the crowd loves to see, a fast-bowler uprooting the stumps and getting the job done.
Below is the video of the wicket that was taken by Smith to open his account on the night-

It was a brilliant dismissal and it foxed the batsman. This is what excites the audience at home when a bowler disturbs the stumps. It was just what the doctor ordered and the bowler did not disappoint.
Magnificent. #CPL pic.twitter.com/3YcI7Z76Of

More Updates On The Game Between The Two Teams
The St Kitts & Nevis Patriots beat the Guyana Amazon Warriors by seven wickets, with 13 balls to spare. The game could have been closed and better balanced, but it was clinched at the end quite easily. Skipper Dwayne Bravo’s decision to bowl first paid off for his side.
Evin Lewis scored a top-notch 77 and Chris Gayle added a much-needed 42 to help steer the team into the final. The target of 179 was easily breezed past at the end, with 13 deliveries still to go. This happened as the team batting second had a plan from the very beginning and they executed it perfectly.
The Warriors had no answer to the rival’s tactics and were totally blown away. The CPL produced yet another great semifinal and the fans enjoyed it. It would have been better if the team bowling second had put up more of a fight. However, the batting from the opposition was just too good and they had no answer.
It made the game a one-sided tie and though the bowling team should have had a chance due to the decent total, they were just outshined. Hopefully, the final of the 2021 edition of the CPL is a closely contested fight. That will be something for the fans to look forward to prior to the start of the second phase of the IPL.
