The Trinbago Knight Riders (TKR) produced a magnificent display in both innings to doom the St Lucia Stars to a 101 run defeat and an all too familiar opening game loss in the 2018 Hero Caribbean Premier League (CPL) competition last night at the Queen’s Park Oval in Port of …

West Indies cricket legend and multiple world record holder Brian Lara discusses the potential talking points for the 2018 CPL season, Test vs T20 cricket, the strengths of reigning champs, the Trinbago Knight Riders, and the missing ingredient for the current crop of West Indies players, in the maiden episode …

The time to be in front, every successful sportsman knows, is at the end. Ask Sir Alex Ferguson (but not Arsene Wenger!), Serena Williams, Roger Federer, Mo Farah, Usain Bolt (but not Justin Gatlin!) and Dwayne Bravo (but not Jason Holder!) That’s illustrious company for the Trinbago Knights Riders captain, …

“Aye, Cooper, ah love yuh,” he shouted (Yes, he! No mistake! An older, balding gentleman whose gait suggested a certain unsteadiness that was perhaps liquid-provoked). “TKR is the greatest side in the world.” He was dressed in a Trinbago Knight Riders tee-shirt and waving a red bandanna energetically to and …

For the tenth time in twelve matches this season, Trinbago Knight Riders skipper Dwayne Bravo won the toss. And for the third time, his side last night got the better of the Rayad Emrit-led Guyana Amazon Warriors in yesterday’s second Eliminator of the Hero Caribbean Premier League at the Brian …

Denesh “Shotta” Ramdin swatted St Kitts and Nevis Patriots pacer Hasan Ali to the boundary and then roared at the heavens. Against the odds, he had just led the Trinbago Knight Riders to a fifth win in six games and guaranteed them a spot in the four-team play-offs, which will …

Nobody yet knows who greased the palms of the Barbados Tridents at the Queen’s Park Oval last night; Sunil Narine is certainly not complaining! The mystery-spinner-turned-Trinbago-Knight-Riders-opening-batsman rode his luck to hit 79, his career highest score in T20 cricket, and lead the home team to their fourth win in five …

Kieron Pollard might be a Trinbagonian but he’s not a Knight Rider. So the thousands of glad, largely red-clad fans who filled the house at the Queen’s Park Oval last night did not come to see any effortless straight-back-over-your-head shots from the Barbados Tridents’ captain. Outside the Oval, I ran …

Colin Munro pulled his way to an entertaining 47-ball 70 as he engineered a comfortable seven-wicket victory for the Trinbago Knight Riders against Guyana Amazon Warriors just past midnight in the capital city of Port-of-Spain. Already with scores of 66 not out and 41 to his name in the current …

With eight runs needed off the last nine balls at the Queen’s Park Oval last night, Jamaica Tallawahs’ Jonathan Foo hoists Trinbago Knight Riders’ skipper Dwayne Bravo high to long-on. Waiting for an eternity under the ball at the boundary’s edge, double CPL 2017 Man-of-the-Match Shadab Khan mistimes his leap …

They’re back! And they’re bidding to do better than they did last year! When Dwayne Bravo’s Trinbago Knight Riders (TKR) take on Darren Sammy’s St Lucia Stars (SLS) in an early return match at the Queen’s Park Oval this evening, they will be at almost full strength. Missing from the …
