SLK vs TKR: Trinbago Knight Riders’ skipper Kieron Pollard lead his team to a 4 wickets victory against St Lucia Kings in the match 12th of Caribbean Premier League 2024.
After winning the toss, Kieron Pollard decided to bowl first as St Lucia Kings’ captain Faf du Plessis and Johnson Charles came to the crease to start the match. The start was good as Johnson Charles was dealing in boundaries, but the right-handed batter got caught at long-on after scoring 29 runs. Faf got out after scoring 34 runs. It was Roston Chase and Bhanuka Rajapaksa who maintained the run rate for the team, Chase scored his fifty and remained not out as St Lucia Kings put 187 runs on the board at the end of 20 overs.
Chasing the target of 188 runs, TKR’s start wasn’t good as Sunil Narine got out in the 2nd over of the powerplay, but that didn’t bother TKR players much as Shaqkere Parris was looking in good touch. The right-handed batter hit runs all over the park and scored his fifty. It looked like an easy win for LKR as they crossed the mark of 100 under 10 overs of the game. Shaqkere Parris’ wicket turned the tide as SLK was back in the game. Skipper Kieron Pollard took the matter into his own hands when his team required 27 runs to win in 2 overs. He hit four sixes in the penultimate over to ensure a victory for his team as Trinbago Knight Riders won the match by 4 wickets.

CPL 2024, Match 12: SLK vs TKR| Captains’ Corner
For someone who has played for the West Indies, captained them (the West Indies) and played a lot in St Lucia, for them to boo…Young Shaq (Parris), showing his worth from the first ball he faced, he set the tempo. He did not have a great day in the field. Everyone has roles and responsibilities, and if my role is to finish games, that is what I have to do. Love seeing the young guys (contribute). We continue to do that and until I call it quits, I’d like to do that (give opportunities to the youngsters). Very good game of cricket from both sides. It was a good wicket, felt 15-20 runs too many (conceded). Fielding (in that manner) is something that is unacceptable. Even senior guys dropping catches. We can be out-skilled but fielding is something we need to improve on.
Kieron Pollard(Trinbago Knight Riders’ Captain)
Great game of cricket. Quality powerplay from both teams and I would have taken 190 – it was maybe five above what we thought we could get. We went for 70 in the first six and that is my one concern (from tonight). We stayed in the contest right till the end but unfortunately, that second-last over went for a few too many sixes. (On the dropped chances) Fielding at St Kitts and this one, with the lights and the dark skies, plus the breeze, you see a lot of dropped catches. We did a lot of things right tonight but the small margins, at the end of the day, when it is you against someone else…we were in the contest for 90% of the game but came up against a strong batting line-up. You look at all the positives and stay positive as a group. When you lose badly, you feel that a little more. When you play well, you walk off the field with your chin up.
Faf du Plessis(St Lucia Kings’ Captain)
