The Guyana Amazon Warriors (GAW) Women’s duo of Ashmini Munisar and Realeanna Grimmond were standout performers in the recently concluded Massy Women’s Caribbean Premier League (WCPL).
Munisar and Grimmond enjoyed playing in the CPL on home soil in Guyana, and, despite their team finishing as runners-up in the tournament, the young duo were bright sparks from a West Indian perspective.
Munisar finished as the tournament’s joint leading wicket-taker with eight scalps, while Grimmond amassed 116 runs – the most by a West Indian batter. The right-handed top-order batter’s highest score was 61, which came against the eventual champions, the Barbados Royals.
“Congratulations to both our cricketers who are part of the Guyana Amazon Warriors Women.

Despite coming so close to their first WCPL title, our club is extremely proud of you two for the hard work you put in during the tournament.
Our club must say kudos to Munisar, as she played her heart out for her country, copping 3-21 in the final and a brilliant catch of the skipper Chinelle Henry, which swung the game back in Guyana’s favour. Tough loss, girls; continue to strive for excellence,” the Rose Hall Canje posted on the official social media page.
The Rose Hall Canje Cricket Club continues to produce female cricketers and is raising the benchmark for women’s cricket in Guyana. The 21-year-old Munisar has already featured in 11 Women’s T20 Internationals and six One Day Internationals. Meanwhile, the 20-year-old Grimmond has represented the West Indies Women in four One Day Internationals and five T20 Internationals.
The GAW Women went down by three wickets in the final against the Barbados Royals at Providence. The victory gave the Barbadian franchise their third consecutive Women’s CPL title. Notably, the Royals achieved the feat without their most dynamic player, Hayley Matthews, who was side-lined due to surgery.
