They’re back at home and up against it! After a stellar run of qualifying matches, including eights wins, ended in defeat on Saturday, Dwayne Bravo’s Trinbago Knight Riders must get back to winning ways. But it won’t be easy. And they may be quaking in their boots. Tomorrow, they take …

For the first ten overs of their innings in their penultimate qualifying round game against Dwayne Bravo’s Trinbago Knight Riders at Kensington Oval in Barbados last night, Kieron Pollard’s Barbados Tridents looked dead and almost buried. But a fighting record eighth wicket partnership of 47 between Wayne Parnell (44, 35 …
