Hello and welcome to our live coverage of the 28th match of the Caribbean Premier League (CPL) 2024 between Trinbago Knight Riders and Barbados Royals coming live from Brian Lara Stadium Tarouba Trinidad. After Dwayne Bravo's untimely retirement due to a groin injury Trinbago Knight Riders are ready to take on Barbados Royals who are on a three-match losing streak in match number 28 of the ongoing edition of the Caribbean Premier League (CPL) at the Brian Lara Stadium Tarouba Trinidad on Saturday (September 28).
Both teams have qualified for the playoffs but now the race is for a top-two finish as the teams who finish first and second after the league stages will get two chances to make it to the grand finale. In their last game Knight Riders lost to St Lucia Kings by 80 runs. Bowling first they conceded 218/6 from 20 overs. Johnson Charles scored 89 off just 40 balls while skipper Faf du Plessis made 59 off 43.
Tim Seifert scored 30 off just 17 deliveries as the Kings posted 218 setting the Knight Riders a target of 219 for the win. Captain Kieron Pollard was the pick of the bowlers taking four wickets for 38 runs from his four overs. Jayden Seales and Chris Jordan chipped in with a wicket each. In reply the Knight Riders lost Keacy Carty early. Nicholas Pooran too failed to make an impact and perished for 10 off 7. Akeal Hosein and Pollard were dismissed for ducks.
Jason Roy was the only notable performer with the bat scoring 41 off 29 balls. The Knight Riders were 138/9 when a groin injury forced Dwayne Bravo to retire hurt ending their innings there. On the other hand Barbados Royals too are coming in this game on the back of a heavy defeat. They lost to the defending champions Guyana Amazon Warriors by 47 runs. Bowling first the Royals conceded 219/8 from their 20 overs. Shimron Hetmyer scored 57 while Shai Hope made 71 off 37.
Maheesh Theekshana picked up 3/15 while Jason Holder Keshav Maharaj and Obed McCoy chipped in with a wicket apiece. In response Quinton de Kock started well with a knock of 35 off 23 but he failed to convert it into a big one. Rest of the batters didn't apply themselves and the Royals kept losing wickets at regular intervals. It was a lone hand from David Miller who made 71 off 34 that helped them avoid an embarrassing defeat.
Miller's knock reduced the margin of defeat to 47 runs. Can Barbados Royals put an end to their 3-match losing streak or will Trinbago Knight Riders get back to winning ways after a blip? Its a sea of red at Tarouba because its the last league match at the home ground of the Knight Riders. As the broadcaster mentioned they are running late because the teams have arrived a bit late due to a heavy traffic. Crictalks Live.
Kieron Pollard (Trinbago Knight Riders Captain): "Obviously it is what it is (on dew). I had lost tosses everywhere lost this too. Lets see how things go with the bat. The outfield is already wet. One or two overs the ball travels on the outfield it already becomes wet. One forced change. Obviously Dwayne Bravo has retired from all formats. Terrance Hinds comes in. Jayden Seales misses out. Young Shaqkere Parris comes in. Bravo has been a great servant for us. He will be there with us in the squad. Its good to have his experience in the side." Km Punk Live Match.
Rovman Powell (Barbados Royals Captain): "We want to bowl first. Looks like a good wicket and we want to chase with dew around. We need to enjoy cricket what we did in Barbados and when we went to Guyana we started to complain and did not enjoy cricket at all. So that will be the aim. We have two changes today. Obed McCoy misses out and we have an emerging player playing today. Obed is fine. We are giving chances to others and see how it goes. We want to play good cricket." Barbados Royals won the toss and opted to bowl first. Iqbal Sports Live.
