Tarang: "I'm in USA and feeling the Gayle Storm..."
Riad: "Apart from narine 4 overs , TKR gave 183 from 14.2 overs .you can defend a total of 191 when one of your bowler just conceded 9 runs from 4 overs .but can lose the match when 71 runs conceded in a span of 3 overs "
koti reddy: "T&T have to blame themselves for doing the same mistake of making Akmal keeping they have to bring in one of the two genuine keepers in their squad Perkins and Tariq"
What fire-power we witnessed today. It was the big man from Jamaica who stole the show smacking 108 of 54. Early on - the top order from Trinbago Knight Riders gave a hard task for the JT's and piled up a match winning 191. It was Amla and Muro again. Dale Steyn wasn't at his best too. Chasing 191, JT's have trounced the Knight Riders. It was Gayle's show all the way. The big Caribbean scored his third CPL century and eighteenth over all. Knight Riders have themselves to blame, had their chances all the way.. gave Chris a couple of chances and let their team down. Benn was taken to the cleaners from Chris. Sunil Narine was the only bowler who troubled the Jamaicans. Chris and co., played him intelligently and saw him off. Unsurprisingly Chris Gayle has been named Man of the match for his flamboyant innings.
