Green: There's some different theories floating on the bus trip about how I toss the coin. I tell them it's 50-50. The team is closer than ever. We're enjoying each other's company. It's the last home game for us. Same team. We have two close games and two where we were outplayed.

Pollard: Chris predicted just now. So since he wanted to bat first, I'll let him bat first. Ball might come on a little bit. Odd shower of rain comes in the second half that might help us. All these reasons may not come into play if we don't bowl well. Back end of the tournament is going to be rough (in terms of schedule). Couple of changes - Hous gets an opportunity. Hosein and Russell are back.

When the going is tough sometimes a break helps. It breaks the rhythm and good can happen through change. But there is no respite for the Falcons unfortunately as the Antigua leg of the season came right at the start when they didn't click as a unit in their debut season. Four games, four losses and they are left with one final home game today. Can they put smiles on the faces of their fans before the CPL caravan shifts elsewhere?
Brandon King joined the squad before the last game but he's still not played since picking up the side strain in the T20 World Cup. When asked about his fitness, Chris Green wasn't giving away too much and said he's hoping for the batter's availability at some point in the comp. Is he match-ready tonight? They need his solidity, his class at the top.
18:00 Local Time, 22:00 GMT, 03:30 IST: The Falcons still have six games to go and every game literally is a must-win to stay in the race for the playoffs. But they play the mighty Knight Riders this game who just bulldozed their opponents last game. This is going to be a stiff challenge for the hosts.
