CPL 2023: All Rounder Performance of Roston Chase Goes In Vain
In the 1st match of the Caribbean Premier League (CPL) 2023, Roston Chase was certainly able to give a brilliant performance through both bat and bowl. However, still, his team Saint Lucia Kings lost against Jamaica Tallawahs. But there is no doubt that both teams won the respect because the match was very competitive. It shows that these two teams have the chance to be at the top of the points table. But for that Ron Chase alone is not enough to take the team forward, the whole team needs to play as a unit.

Shamarh Brooks was getting settled with his 12 runs, but that was stopped as Roston Chase ensured to get his wickets before he could have got settled.
The next important wicket was of R.Reifer who was forming a brilliant partnership with Brandon King. But Before Reifer had got settled, he was out on a brilliant delivery by Chase.

In the 2nd innings, Saint Lucia had a big target in front of them. They had to chase the target of 188 runs. It was 57 for 2 when Chase came out to bat.
