During the Caribbean Premier League 2023 match at Providence, West Indian star batter Fabian Allen, who turns out for the Jamaica Tallawahs delivered an unforgettable moment against the Guyana Amazon Warriors. Allen's powerful shot over long-off not only cleared the boundary but also shattered a glass window, leaving an unmistakable hole in its wake.
The dramatic moment occurred in the last ball of the 19th over, bowled by ex-South African pacer Dwaine Pretorious. Off a slower delivery outside off, Allen launched the ball fiercely over long off for an impressive six. Subsequent replays vividly captured the ball's impact on the window.
Allen's fiery cameo of 21 runs off 14 balls, inclusive of two sixes, propelled the Tallawahs to a total of 152 runs in 20 overs. He contributed a notable 41 runs in 27 balls alongside Raymond Reifer.

However, the Tallawahs' total of 153 was effortlessly chased down by the Guyana Amazon Warriors, thanks to Saim Ayub's splendid 85 runs off 53 balls, adorned with 5 fours and an equal number of sixes. Ayub forged a 112-run partnership in just 12.5 overs with Matthew Nandu. With Shai Hope's unbeaten 16, the Warriors clinched the victory with 7 wickets in hand and 9 balls to spare.
This win fortified the Warriors' dominance, placing them at the pinnacle with 6 victories in 7 matches, amassing 13 points.
