Russell to Delano Potgieter, out Caught by Pooran!! That will settle the match! A wide yorker from Dre Russ, catches a faint edge and through to the keeper as Potgieter threw the kitchen sink at it.

Kieron Pollard | Player of the Match -
This surface, I look forward to playing. You're not playing against the opposition, you're playing against home support, that makes you raise your game. I'm enjoying my cricket now, just playing the role of guiding the youngsters, passing my experience to them, they'll take the team forward. It's a mix of both - I've messed up at times when I was young, now it's all about executing your process and try to be successful. A lot of work happens behind the scenes, couple of years ago, we had a batting problem in the Caribbean, the facilities weren't great, but you need to have the patience to work hard. The world isn't coming to you, you've got to go for it. It's about taking each game as it comes, we've 5 games coming up at home and the Independence day comes around the same time. Looking forward to getting support back at home (in Trinidad)

10:50 pm The Knight Riders have spoilt the homecoming for the Kings! In front of their home crowd, both Johnson Charles and Tim Seifert started with explosive intent, smashing boundaries all over the ground. The opening pair scored a brilliant 60 runs in the Powerplay, laying a strong foundation with a 74-run stand. However, the momentum shifted. Charles began to slow down in the middle overs, struggling to time the ball and relying too heavily on boundaries. As dot balls piled up, he eventually gave his wicket away, and the run rate dropped. The Kings then lost Roston Chase in the very next over, who was trapped in front while attempting a reverse sweep. The game seemed all but over when Tim David was controversially given out caught behind. Despite inconclusive evidence, the third umpire reversed the on-field decision, and a hush fell over the stadium. Ultimately, the target proved to be a bit too much for the Kings to chase. A number of factors cost the Kings the game. They may have underutilised their spinners during the bowling innings, and a few dropped catches and missed run-out opportunities were particularly costly. For the Knight Riders, Andre Russell and Tariq were the standout bowlers, each picking up two wickets to secure the win.

Kapil Baldawa : "Not a single boundary off the bat from Delano. I'm not sure what they see in him to send him at 5 above Weise. And Weise didn't finish Shamzi's quota too. Captaincy to Weise in itself is a mystery" Delano struck one boundary, though.


DaWolf: "I like Wiese as a player, he's always been a whole hearted cricketer. But as captain I think he bowls and bats thinking he's better than he is - that mentally he's as good as a few years ago. He's batting too high and bowling too many overs without considering the pitch."

David Weise:
Wasn't our best performance in the field and good players don't give you second chances. Pollard took the game away from us. Happy with the way we tried to chase that target of over 180. We need to get back tomorrow and be professionals, can't let go of too many opportunities. He has a slight niggle, we will keep monitoring him. We want him at his best whenever he is back. They pack the stands, it is just a great vibe here. We will do our best tomorrow and hopefully we'll give them something to celebrate

Nicholas Pooran:
We spoke about playing different phases in the game, and about players taking responsibility for their position. This pitch had a bit for the spinners. (On Pollard) He's a man who prides himself on good performances, very consistent on and off the field and that's one of the man reasons for his success. He always wants to win, he got hit on the shoulder yesterday but was rearing to go again. (On how it is to captain a team with so many experienced players) It is all about communication, we share information with each other and share the load of captaincy. We are excited to be coming back to Trinidad and playing some exciting cricket.
