The players and the umpires make their way to the middle. Amir to start off with the new ball. A slip in place. Here we go...
We have made a few changes to our Expert XI. Have a look at our new and improved team
Pitch Report: Talking about the dimensions, it's 65m to my left and 62m to my right and it's a 73m hit down the ground. The surface here looks really good tonight, a litte better than the one last night. The overnight rain hasn't really affected it. The dry nature of the surface suggests that it may spin a little. I feel that 150 will once again be a good total and batting second might be the way to go, reckons Simon Doull
Kieron Pollard: We just have to know what we are doing and the law of the averages say that we were going to lose the toss tonight. We are looking forward to the occasion tonight. (On whether Bravo is playing) He is not playing tonight and Hinds also misses out.
Chris Green: We are gonna bowl, the dew comes in and it becomes easier to bat later on. It's a great atmosphere here and we need to enjoy our cricket. We haven't really clicked but we need to play good cricket. We have three changes.
Teams:
Trinbago Knight Riders (Playing XI): Shaqkere Parris, Sunil Narine, Keacy Carty, Nicholas Pooran(w), Kieron Pollard(c), Tim David, Andre Russell, Akeal Hosein, Chris Jordan, Joshua Little, Waqar Salamkheil
Antigua and Barbuda Falcons (Playing XI): Justin Greaves, Brandon King, Kofi James, Jahmar Hamilton(w), Imad Wasim, Shamar Springer, Joshua James, Chris Green(c), Fabian Allen, Hassan Khan, Mohammad Amir
Antigua and Barbuda Falcons have won the toss and have opted to field
18:00 Local Time, 22:00 GMT, 03:30 IST: We are already more than halfway through the tournament and things are heating up. The Knight Riders take on the Falcons at their home ground in Trinidad tonight. The hosts are shaping up nicely and are on a three-match winning streak. Another win tonight will enable the Knight Riders to secure a playoff spot. With Russell returning to the side and Tim David also joining the team, the hosts have been further bolstered. They have functioned like a well-oiled unit and the results are there to see. The Falcons, on the other hand, have had an underwhelming season so far. They have only won two of their eight games. A loss tonight will lead to the Falcons’ elimination from the tournament. It’s a do-or-die game for the visitors. But, the Falcons eked out a tight win against the Knight Riders in the reverse fixture and they will take confidence from that fact. It promises to be a cracker! Stick around for the toss and team lineups...
