XCUI Test: How to click Labels populated at run time

Question

I am trying to click label which is populated and cached at runtime. The TableViewCell has a UILabel which is decided at runtime. So I can't add a Accessibility Identifier to it. But I have added an identifier to the UILabel, but this view is repeated several times and when I look for a label

[tablesQuery.staticTexts[@"Channels"] tap];

I get an error, Multiple matches found

I have added a identifier to the UILabel in the tableView, myIdentifier.

How can I access the label to automate the tap?

from app.debugDescription

Assertion Failure: Smoke.m:238: No matches found for "Recents" StaticText
Query input was {(
    StaticText 0x600000563840: traits: 8589934656, {{40.0, 90.0}, {211.0, 21.0}}, identifier: 'navScreenTitle', label: 'Speaker',
    StaticText 0x600000563900: traits: 8589934656, label: 'No Volume Available',

    StaticText 0x600000563d80: traits: 8589934656, label: 'No Volume Available'

Update: I tried accessing the element in this way:

XCUIElement *speakerStaticText = tablesQuery.staticTexts[@"navScreenTitle"] ;

[speakerStaticText tap];

Results in

   `↳Table 0x6000005681c0: traits: 35192962023424, {{0.0, 77.0}, {330.0, 590.0}}

I am not able to isolate and click on the particular label Recents Please suggest how I can do that.
