Amazon vs Trinbago, 1st Match at Tarouba, CPL, Aug 18 2020 - Match Result
Trinbago won by 4 wickets (with 2 balls remaining)
That's all from us from Tarouba. Don't forget to catch the second game in less than three hours. Till then, see you.
Narine is the Player of the Match: "Getting Taylor's wicket was key while bowling. Batting got easier as the day went. They bowled well, but I just continued trying to stay as still as possible. It's a good win, although it got close."
Losing captain Chris Green: "It was going to be tough beating 11 wins in a row from last year. Was a tough game, and first game in a long time, so. Given the start, losing two early wickets, I think Taylor and Hetmyer batted really well. We thought 140 would be a good score. We spoke about holding that length, and when we went away from that, we got hurt. Plenty of room for improvement."
Winning captain Pollard: "Any competition, you want to start well. A little scratchy and scrappy but good to get over the line. We needed to play a good game of cricket and it was a good game of cricket. Points on the board at the start.
