TKR look to 'dominate again,' face struggling Patriots in Tarouba
FOUR-TIME Republic Bank Caribbean Premier League (CPL) champions Trinbago Knight Riders (TKR) will aim to get back to winning ways when they host cellar-placed St Kitts and Nevis Patriots (SKNP) from 7 pm at the Brian Lara Cricket Academy (BLCA) in Tarouba on September 22.With the Kings and Royals already sealing their playoff places ahead of their second meeting in as many days on September 22, TKR will be looking to join the party as they continue their hunt for a fifth title.
TKR are fourth on the six-team table with eight points from six matches, and they will be coming up against a Patriots team which is on an eight-game losing skid – their lone victory coming in a last-ball thriller against Antigua and Barbuda Falcons in the first game of the 2024 season on August 29. For captain Kieron Pollard and the TKR team, they will want to rebound quickly after going down to the Falcons by six wickets in a controversial affair at the Queen’s Park Oval, St Clair on September 19. It was the Falcons’ second win over TKR this season and kept their own playoff hopes alive ahead of their September 21 meeting with reigning champions Guyana Amazon Warriors.
