Barbados Tridents have won the toss and have opted to bat

In reply to Narper

Hello and welcome to our coverage of the CPL. As we enter the business end of the tournament, Trinbago Knight Riders find themselves nicely poised to make the play-offs, while their opponents tonight, Barbados Tridents, have plenty of mopping up to do after four defeats in six matches. But they have a few more matches in hand than some of the other teams jostling for play-off spots, and they also have the No.1 limited overs allrounder, Shakib al Hasan joining them for the rest of the campaign.

OK TKR leats get a quick victory , so we keep pace with GAW.

Then we can clobber GAW at the Oval.

VOR please stay away.

Charles and J Carter are at the crease.

K Pierre to Charles, out Caught by Pollard!! Both openers gone now. Floated it up nicely outside off and lured Charles into a lofted shot straight down the ground, Charles refuses to use his feet and skews it off the toe-end to the fielder at long-off. KP ain't dropping that dolly.

Last 4 overs: 74 runs, 2 wkts

The Tridents started steadily with their highest opening stand of the season but lost their way in the middle before JP Duminy played a freakish innings, his clean striking catapulting the home team to a competitive total. TKR have a gun batting line-up though.

1.2
Primus to Narine, FOUR, stand and deliver - that's Narine speciality.

1.3
Primus to Narine, 5 runs,No backing up and bonus runs for Narine and TKR. Stroked to cover and charges across, JPD collects the ball and thinks that there's a run-out chance at the bowler's end. So fires a flat throw but it misses the stumps. Could've been close had there been a direct-hit

BOWLED !!!!!

2.1
Holder to Narine, out Bowled!! Gone. You-miss-I-Hit stuff and that's end of Narine for the night. Holder kept it simple - full and attacked the stumps. Narine wanted to slog it out of the park and ended up missing it totally only to hear the death rattle. Holder is thrilled to bits and yells out a roar.

Narine b Holder 19(9) [4s-2

clap clap clap Holder bruk dem up

2.3
Holder to Munro, FOUR, up and over the bowler's head. Tells you the kind of form Munro is in. Runs down the pitch and extends his arms into a lofty jab straight down the ground. And it's gone all the way!

Holder to Munro, SIX, up and over the bowler's head. Tells you the kind of form Munro is in. Runs down the pitch and extends his arms into a lofty jab straight down the ground. And it's gone all the way! Flat-six

Holder to Simmons, SIX, walloped over cow corner. Back of a length on middle and leg, Simmons backed away and nonchalantly sent it a mile into the night sky

Trinbago Knight Riders need 147 runs

Anon06: "Counting the middle period of Duminy's innings, he went from 3 of 5 to 65 from 19 before getting out the next ball. That middle period of 62 from 14 was struck at 442.9. Absolutely astonishing. Begs the question, which player has scored the most runs in a 10-ball ( or even 12 or 15) period at any stage of their innings in T20s?" -- Don't think I have anything off hand

OK TKR the chase is on....

In reply to B16JP587S

What happened to Narps ....

Reifer to Munro, OUT, Duminy is at it again! Fuller around off, looked like a slower one, Munro goes aerial but hasn't got the hold of it as the bat turns in his hand. Holder from mid-on runs backwards but it's Duminy who sprints across from long-on and takes a brilliant tumbling catch catch

8.3
Hayden Walsh to Ramdin, out Bowled!! Walsh strikes in his first over. Pensive faces in the TKR dressing room. Slider, non-turner and Ramdin sinks low looking to play the slog-sweep. Plays down the wrong line and the stumps are in a mess. Walsh is pumped.

9.3
R Reifer to Darren Bravo, 1 run, run-out opportunity goes begging for the Tridents.Punched from the crease and a stunning stop by the fielder at point which creates some confusion in the middle. Pollard was ball-watching after taking a step and Bravo was rushing across. Eventually, the TKR skipper goes through and escapes in the end

10.2
Hayden Walsh to Pollard, out Caught by Holder!! Jason Holder does an Imran Tahir after taking a catch. TKR's chances are fading away as Pollard departs. Tossed up outside off, Pollard lifts it sans any timing and finds Holder at long-off, who keeps his calm and gobbles a smart one near the ropes. BAZ - the coach of Trinidad flashes a smirk in the dressing room.

Pollard c Holder b Hayden Walsh 3(6)

Ex Captain took out the Captain

Nesham gawn too

10.3
Hayden Walsh to Neesham, out Caught by Nurse!! Two in two for Walsh. Incredible! He's spinning Barbados home here. Floated up and this sprang up all of a sudden making Neesham's life difficult as he couldn't get away and spoons a sitter to first slip.

Neesham c Nurse b Hayden Walsh 0(1)

TKR gone over the precipice??

At least one leg over..

10.5
Hayden Walsh to Prasanna, out Caught by Hales!! Well, he may not have got an hat-trick but Walsh is having a dream outing. Three wickets in four balls and Barbados are inching closer. Slowish leg-break

Was a close game

TKR only lose by 63

In reply to powen001

Us T&T peeps dont want to put a beat dong on we bwoy Simmo
at the Mecca.

But in POS it will be licks like peas.

Called in for Sandeep Lamichhane, who is away on national duty, Hayden Walsh Jr spun a web around the vaunted TKR line-up, taking five for 19, three of those in a single over. It was the first five-for of this season and the third best figures in CPL history. TKR slumped from 69 for two to 82 for 7, and there was no way back from there. The Tridents are well and truly in the hunt for a play-off spot now, having broken a long standing losing streak at home.

10.55am A late assault from Allen and Mir brought Patriots back into the game after they had lost 4 for 6, but TKR debutants Neesham and Hasnain finished off the game for the hosts in Port-of-Spain Neesham is the Man of the Match: "It's a strong start for us, and Polly got us to a par score. I am a changed person now and I love bowling at the death under pressure. It's something I have worked on."
