Trinbago Knight Riders defeat Saint Lucia Kings by 18 runs in CPL

In the 10th match of the Caribbean Premier League 2025, Trinbago Knight Riders defeated Saint Lucia Kings by 18 runs at the Daren Sammy Cricket Ground. Both teams had a modest start to the season, each holding only one win prior to this game. The Knight Riders posted a competitive total of 183/7, powered by Kieron Pollard's explosive innings of 65 runs off 29 balls, which included six sixes and four fours, alongside solid contributions from Colin Munro (43) and Nicholas Pooran (34). Saint Lucia Kings fought hard in their chase but fell short, managing 165/6, with key performances from Roston Chase (47) and Tim Seifert (35), and a crucial wicket of Tim David via a review. Pollard's aggressive batting and disciplined bowling efforts, including a run-out by Keon Gaston, proved decisive in securing the victory. This win propelled the Knight Riders to third place on the CPL table while the Kings suffered their first loss after an abandoned match earlier in the tournament.
