And Pooran finishes the game in style with a massive six! Short pitched ball angling away outside off, Pooran standing upright inside the crease, full swing of the bat and clears the long on fences comfortably.

Jayden Seales to Pooran, SIX, Trinbago Knight Riders win by 8 wickets. First win for them against Antigua and Barbuda Falcons. They had lost all three before today but this is a comprehensive victory. Pooran seals the deal with a biggie. Short of length angled across,

10:55 pm The Trinbago Knight Riders have finally broken their losing streak against the Falcons, getting their home leg off to a brilliant start. Alex Hales got them off to a strong start, hitting two back-to-back boundaries off McCoy. Shakib Al Hasan was brought on in the fourth over and got the wicket of Munro. Hales and Carty then built a steady partnership, surviving a few close calls as the Falcons missed multiple stumping and run-out opportunities. Hales played the anchor role, while Carty was the aggressor, smashing 60 runs off 45 deliveries before being chopped on while playing against Jayden Seales. Hales received two lives, both from Gous, who missed a stumping and a run-out chance. The opening batter made them pay, staying unbeaten to finish with 53 runs off 46 balls. Pooran came in to play a quick cameo and get his team over the line as fast as possible. It was a quiet day for the Falcons' bowlers, who missed the leadership and presence of their regular captain, Imad Wasim.

Player of the Match, Mohammad Amir: "I think the wicket was offering early on. And whenever I try to swing the ball when the wicket is offering, I think I am using the wicket very well. And with the new ball, I always try to swing the ball, and that was my role, and I was trying to do that. It's amazing, and I think people will come to the next games. And you know what? The best thing in Trinidad is the crowd. They are very supportive. And we are looking forward to the next game. [Celebration] I saw the video on social media. The young guy, I don't remember; he's from Indonesia or Malaysia. He was doing that. I think everybody is doing it on social media. So I thought, why not today?"

The wicket was offering some help early on. When there is help I always try to swing the new ball. Everybody is doing it on social media so I thought I will also do it (referring to his celebration)

Imad Wasim:
It is alright. We will have a scan and see what it is, hopefully it is nothing major. We were 20-30 runs short to be honest. Losing wickets in clusters does not help, we lost 3 wickets in 4 balls at one stage. It is the later part of the tournament and we have to be up for it from ball one. Today Karim got out early and that is the first time it happened this season, we will sit and talk about it. It is just another game, but your approach to the game should be right and we need to turn red hot for the next game.


Nicholas Pooran:
It feels good to win especially against Antigua as they have got the better of us in the last few games. We didn't plan specific for them. Amir led the way for us. All the bowlers chipped in. The discipline sticks out, we had to work really hard and CPL is a difficult tournament, we need to all come together and do our jobs. Trinidad is amazing and we know whenever we come here they turn, hope we continue to put smiles on their faces.
