Jersey’s reply got off to a difficult start – Carlyon was caught for two, hooking Luke Bichard into the wind, while Patrick Gouge hit 22 off 12 balls before he was caught off Adam Martel to leave Jersey on 25-2 off 3.5 overs.

Jersey slumped to 42-3 five balls later when Nick Greenwood was caught for 10 off eight balls as Martel claimed his second wicket.

It got worse for the favourites when the big-hitting Jonty Jenner (17) and his replacement Julius Sumerauer (0) were dismissed in the space of three balls by Matt Stokes as Jersey were reduced to 61-5 off 7.1 overs.

But Tribe and Charlie Brennan came together for a vital sixth-wicket stand as they moved Jersey back above the run rate.

The pair made 39 before Brennan was caught by Ben Ferbrache on 20 as Bichard took his second wicket to leave Jersey on 100-6 with six overs to go.

But Tribe – the brother of England Lions and Glamorgan player Asa – and Ben Ward saw Jersey home.

Tribe hit five sixes in a 40-ball knock as he and Ward’s 40-run stand sent the Jersey fans wild and broke Guernsey’s hearts.
