Presentations coming up...

Pollard's heroics fall short - With the game slipping away, Kieron Pollard injected sheer excitement into the stands with a breathtaking blitz, hammering 65 off just 26 balls. However, Matthew Forde struck the decisive blow in the 17th over by taking a return catch to dismiss Pollard. That wicket extinguished TKR's hopes, and the hosts eventually closed out their innings at 175/6, sealing a memorable and clinical win for the Saint Lucia Kings.

Chase's dream over - Chasing 212, the Knight Riders enjoyed a solid Powerplay and were flying at 70 without loss in the 8th over before disaster struck. Saint Lucia captain Roston Chase produced a magical, match-defining over, claiming three wickets in his over to remove Sunil Narine, Matthew Breetzke, and the dangerous Nicholas Pooran. Joshua Bishop followed it up soon after by sending back Colin Munro for 48, leaving the hosts reeling at 76/4 and completely changing the complexion of the chase.

Seifert lights up the first innings - Sent in to bat first, the Kings made a massive statement by piling up an imposing 211/4 in their 20 overs. The innings was anchored by a magnificent, unbeaten century from Tim Seifert, who smashed an unbeaten 105 off just 61 deliveries. Valuable partnerships at the top set the tone, with Kamil Pooran and John Campbell keeping the momentum soaring. Charith Asalanka then provided late fireworks to put Saint Lucia to a daunting total.

Kings reign supreme at Queen's Park Oval - It was an absolute thriller in Port of Spain as the Saint Lucia Kings outclassed the Trinbago Knight Riders to register a commanding 36-run victory.
