now Drakes finds the boundary, but it's game over. He opens the face of the bat, and slices this length ball outside off over cover, but it's not enough for STKNP to win

We wrap this afternoon's game from the CPL up, but don't forget, the action now shifts to the evening. It is Antigua and Barbuda Falcons vs St Lucia Kings in North Sound later today. But back to this contest, TKR get on the points table with a slim victory. STKPNP have now lost two in a row, and will hope to bounce back before it gets too late. And until next time, we bid you goodbye! Take care!
Nicholas Pooran: "The most important thing is a win. The way the guys assessed the conditions... If you look at our batting line-up, we have experienced players. When we lost Waqar, we had to get a replacement [in Tariq]. It's about enjoying and playing cricket together."
Jason Holder: "The wicket played really well today. We came very close. Maybe if we cut two, three or four boundaries... Conditions were in favours of the batters today. Still lots to build on. There are so many positives; just got to tight up on a few things. This is a hard ground."
Time for the presentations
Colin Munro is the Player of the Match: "Hit a lot of balls indoors. Just trying to hit the ball as cleanly as I can. It's a winning one! It's always nice to contribute to a win. The shot selection, not to premeditate too much. Just think it's brotherhood. They have been very, very welcoming. Few changes, but it never feels like it changed. Little bit for my family [the hundred celebration], little bit of frustration."
2.49pm TKR start the season with a win, but in the end, it was only 12 runs that separated the sides tonight. That comes down to two good hits, and STKNP will look back and feel they could have started more quickly. Just 23 runs came off the first three overs, and by then, half the powerplay was done. Fletcher did well to counter from there, but eventually, STKNP were left with too much to do in the death overs. Munro's 120 set up the win for TKR, whose bowlers would want to tighten things up. But they will take the win tonight. Hang around for the presentations.

Amir to Holder, OUT
bowled him!! Off comes the leg stump. Amir swung the ball in, and landed it on a yorker length or thereabouts. Holder went for the whip through the line but missed, seemingly because of the fullness of the ball, which went under his bat. A valiant, fighting knock comes to an end
