allyuh still on dat childishness
Trinbago Knight Riders captain Kieron Pollard said booing fans at the Daren Sammy National Cricket Stadium in St Lucia spurred him on to deliver victory for this team.

Pollard smashed a brisk 52 not out (seven sixes) off 19 deliveries to steer his team to an exciting four-wicket win over St Lucia Kings in the Republic Bank Caribbean Premier League on September 10.

In 2019, against Guyana Amazon Warriors, at Providence Stadium, Guyana, Pollard blasted 26 from nine balls to get the win.
His entrance to the wicket was greeted with jeers from the partisan crowd. Unfazed, Pollard punished the Guyana bowlers and later thanked the boo-boys for the added motivation.


Ya still angry over this huh?cool

homes.....guyana regularly getting their skin washed from TT sides, long before franchise cricket was a thing. they were battered in 2011 in the CT20 and canned again in the CT20 edition in February 2013, not once but twice(in the group stage and the final). Everybody in the cricket world will remember pollard, bravo, narine and co after they're done.
Matt Roller | June 6, 2024
Three of the four men to have played over 500 professional T20 matches hail from the same country, which can also lay claim to two of the format's three highest wicket-takers, its third-highest run-scorer, and three of the eight men who have won multiple T20 World Cup finals. It is a track record that would make India, Australia, or Pakistan proud - but remarkably, it belongs to a nation of just 1.5 million people.Dwayne Bravo, Kieron Pollard and Sunil Narine are, unequivocally, T20 legends who have shaped the format's evolution. All three were born within 20 miles of one another in the north of Trinidad, between 1983 and 1988.

don't hate, appreciate
Guyana in no sport achieved that level of fluency and consistency. Even last year, its the foreigners who did the bulk of the work: no team had figured out ayub as yet, praetorius seems to have gotten swept up in the anti-trini hyper-nationalistic jingoism and played better than he usually does, people seemed afraid to bowl shai hope bouncers(i hve no idea why, he's still incompetent against it) and tahir played with a point to prove as numerous people outside of the region, especially in SA thought the idea of him as a skipper was comical to say the least. proof of this is when the super 50 team came to tarouba, they were trounced badly. the team that battered guyana in the 2021 super 50 was an old team too. still scored well over 350 against guyana

A close game...we won...the old men showed experience..cool

Wow. What a game of cricket. The Royals do not know what has happened. They cannot fathom how this has happened. They seemed to have the game in the bag after dismissing Hosein but then Holder transgressed, bowling a waist-high full toss that was ultimately called a No ball. Hinds then smashed the Free hit a mile back to turn thousands of smiles into more solemn faces. Prior to that, Pooran and Carty did much of the early running. Parris also scratched around for 35 but it came down to the Knight Riders' lower order to get the job done. And they did get the job done. Just.

Holder to Hinds, SIX runs
Heroic Hinds does it for the Knight Riders, and the heist is complete! The Kensington Oval descends into silence and Hinds has hushed the home crowd! Holder goes for the yorker but errs on the shorter side. Just by a smidgen, mind you, but that is enough for Hinds to wind up, get under it and clobber it clean over the sightscreen. The cleanest of strikes under pressure and the Knight Riders have walked into the Barbados Royals' den and trumped them!
