Agreed! Heads need to roll for this! I don't have a horse in the race but for the spirit of cricket we needed to see a full game. Have a reserve day or something!

Like they did in 2014?
In reply to ray
2014 was rain homes....act of god. not act of incompetence or worse
In reply to Jumpstart
drizzle and Pollard refuse to play
In reply to Jumpstart
shit happens...they have power outages at other major events as well...the game got finished according to the rules
In reply to ray
hoss a two hour poweer outage in half the facility, that had a similar problem the day before and two weeks prior is incompetence and slackness, not time and unforeseen occurrences. that has never happened in an important game in TT or any of the other cpl territories as yet in the 11 year history of the tournament
In reply to Jumpstart
I don't disagree about incompetence...TKR lost, move on...
In reply to ray 
the President, as head of the state, and as chief promoter of the event (he was there last night to witness it) must issue a sincere apology
and put all things in place to prevent a repeat of this madness
Russell is a cry baby!!
Sour loser.
He complain and runaway like a coward from pressure at tallawahs. Where are these punks voices when in the IPl and any other league.
He should take out that nose ring and start man up.
Take your own advice, man up, and say that to Russel’s face
In reply to Jumpstart
Shtye happens... Russel should be the last to complain... 
He had less that avg. performance in tourney.
In reply to doosra
GPL needs a total overhaul. A bunch of incompetent people there.
You were at the game.
The funny thing about this is dat TKR and their supporters wud have happily accepted the results if the power had not returned and wud not have been expressing outrage at the unfairness of it all
In reply to Maispwi
that is irrelevant homes. fact is something occurred that just betrayed an amateur approach to sports event hosting. the busted wire should have gotten MoM
In reply to doosra
STFU Doosra.
Guyana prez was there to watch cricket. The lights went out - big deal!
If this was being played in AUS NZ UK SAF IND or elsewhere could there have been a different outcome??
CPL is the governing body. The lights were back on and the decision was for BR to score 60 runs in five overs.
--Were the TKR bowlers asleep??
--They had a long break and Narine was delighted [he rarely shows emotion]
TKR team was buoyed by de Kock's wicket.
--Where was Pollard in all of those 4.2 overs that saw Barbados Royals score 64 runs????
--FOUR runs beyond the 60 called for and with FOUR balls to spare
-- 64 runs in 26 balls!!!!!!!!!!!
Disappointment comes with any sport. Everyone is entitled to his/her opinion BUT how does the head of a country become responsible for big men crying when they had TOTAL control over 30 balls with ELEVEN capable players on the pitch??? Obviously they did not want to win or ..........they simply could NOT win...

What has Russell done for TKR this season
I don't know why he is thinking about unretiring for WI
In reply to netgrouchy
Yes, what netgrouchy said.
geez, talk about overreacting to a loss
In reply to netgrouchy
you sound like battylion
this was a known issue
there were at least 2 occassions before that the lights went out recently and they did not troubleshoot to find that problem
save your anger for your people dude
I confess that when the lights went out I said...well...TKR done win this ...whatever we are set they will defend...
DeKocks wicket...
I went and watch Bad Monkey...
woke up this morning and heard we won on DL...
While I understand the disappointment for TKR...it could have been the other way around too.
to destroy property n blame ministers for faulty lights is just emotional venting with precious little substance outside o the cussing and finger pointing.
In reply to powen001
Russell needed to lash more balls! Dais all!

You are just a sour loser . You can’t just call or accuse people without any proof.
Maybe you are complainer or incompetent person who love to blame other when you don’t get things your way..
Just chill man . I 100% agree it was unfair scenario for TKR . But don’t be call people names, or throwing around wild accusations
In reply to netgrouchy
Lol... Jaggy is that you? 
Like somebody hurt yuh feeling... the reason the President gets the blame is because this is not the first time this happened in the last 2 months or so.
- first time it was at the T10 tapeball final... same two towers, it never came on back.
- second was during a GAW practice session prior to the start of CPL.
- then last night.
So yeah you could twist ut and turn it all you want this issue should have been sorted long now.. people need to be held accountable!

It was not a click of the finger issue. It was a Ground fault circuit interruption. The electrician had to pull a new ground circuit. As power plant Electrician myself I know and understand what the task and prey the guys were under. So we should’ve give credit instead. And again I believe the DLS system is bull. The scenario was against TKR.
In reply to Speed100
dls is ridiculous. we hadda hope for it to go against india in a knockout so that the bcci with finally get rid of it.
Andre russel is a complain freak, i remember when guyana play jamaica in florida.
He was complaining that most of the fans were guyanese because many guyanese live in florida.
There have many jamaicans living in florida too, what's stoping them from going to the match.
