Trinbago Knight Riders vs St Kitts and Nevis Patriots, 19th Match - Live Cricket Score, Commentary

That's it from all of us here. Do join us for more CPL action soon. Bye bye for now.

Nicholas Pooran: What is most pleasing for me is that we understood the conditions and what was going to happen. Everything we spoke about happened today. Had a really good partnership with Pollard and myself. The most important thing for me today is that we understood that the Powerplay was going to be tough, especially defending 180. The bowling outside the Powerplay was incredible for us, especially from Sunil Narine and Amir. But most importantly, Nathan Edward answered that call. We only won this game today because of Nathan. (on Russell and Amir's fitness) These guys will be fine, they are warriors. They've been playing with injuries and niggles throughout their careers, and they're going to be fine. (on the fans today) We can't ask for anything better. This is for them, they came out today even though the sun was very hot. They have been supporting us from the first game. I really appreciate them, put some smiles on their faces, and let them enjoy this Independence holiday much more.

Jason Holder: Felt we were in the game until probably the 12th or 13th over. Got a little stuck after that and weren't able to get it going in the back end. Alick Athanaze didn't do a horrible job, but we were probably a boundary or two short. Having said that, I still think we should have gone over the line. (on plans for the next game) We just have to play fearless cricket. We've got nothing to lose from here. We have to play for some pride, at least. I really love the crowd. The crowd came out in big numbers today, despite the hot, blazing sun, and that really energized me. We always want to play in front of a healthy crowd. Pollard is one of those players who can come in and take a game away from anybody, and I felt he played really well.

Kieron Pollard | Player of the Match: I have been here 20 years or more, so won’t call this the form of my life. Wanted to give the fans and my family something to celebrate. I play each ball on its merit, cricket is often a game of chess. You don’t get these games overnight, I have messed up many such games in the past but you learn from experience. For me, preparation is more mental in terms of the processes to be followed.

15:24 Local Time, 19:24 GMT, 00:54 IST: Four in a row for TKR at home. Their top showing this season continues. They now are through to the playoffs. The Patriots were up for the chase as the openers put on 96 but then Athanaze played a few dots and the pressure built up. Fletcher was a key wicket which Usman Tariq got and the TKR bowlers bowled slower-balls plenty into the wicket and deprived the batters of any pace. A stunning catch from the sub at deep mid-wicket got the dangerous Mayers and the last nail in the coffin was Holder's wicket. It got slower and tougher as the game went on to score with the ball getting softer. The Patriots needed points from this game but will have to settle for none. Stay tuned for the post-match stuff...

Usman Tariq to Navian Bidaisee, 1 run, TKR through to the playoffs. A flat good length delivery on off, Navian Bidaisee goes on the back foot and pulls to long-on, just one and TKR win by 12

Usman Tariq to Navian Bidaisee, no run, fired full outside off, Navian Bidaisee gets forward to drive and misses, and that should be the game

Usman Tariq to Navian Bidaisee, wide, called a wide and Pooran is not happy. The carrom-ball outside off, turns in and it's inside the tramline on the off-side, Navian Bidaisee lets it go and it's called a wide much to Pooran's anger

Usman Tariq to Rizwan, 1 run, full and down leg, had Rizwan left that, was a wide, but Rizwan sweeps to short fine for one

Usman Tariq to Rizwan, SIX, that's a good start. It's a low full-toss and sliding down leg, Rizwan sweeps and it has the legs to go all the way over deep backward square-leg. Now the pressure is on Tariq

27 off the final over. Tariq the man to bowl. A fielding penalty for TKR. One more fielder brought in.
