Series Overview
Jamaica Tallawahs hammered Guyana Amazon Warriors by 9 wickets in the 2016 CPL final at Warner Park, St Kitts, to win their second Caribbean Premier League title. Andre Russell was the heart of Jamaica's campaign — his destructive batting and consistent pace bowling earned him Player of the Tournament honours and announced him as one of T20 cricket's most feared all-rounders. The Warriors, dismissed for just 93 in the final, were never in the contest. Jamaica's dominant season and emphatic final victory confirmed the Tallawahs as one of the CPL's elite franchises, following their inaugural 2013 championship.
