00:00Trinbago Knight Riders put Saint Kitts and Nevis Patriots into bat in the
00:03Republic Bank CPL match at the Brian Lauer Cricket Academy. Akhil Hossain took
00:07the first wicket by having Evan Lewis caught by Dwayne Bravo for two. Kyle
00:11Mears joined captain Andre Fletcher and he played some quality shots during the
00:15stand of 99. The southpaw from Barbados brought up his half century in style of
00:22just 18 balls. Mears was out for 60 followed by Riley Russo for 20.
00:30Taken by Casey Carty. Fletcher was still there and played a major role with
00:35Willow in hand. The Spice Man top scored with 93 embellished with four fours and
00:43six sixes. He fell to Chris Jordan who took two wickets in the innings. The
00:47Patriots made 193 for four from their 20 overs. When TKR responded Jason Roy and
00:54Casey Carty opened the innings. They put on 43 before Carty was caught by
01:00Lewis of Mears for 13. In came Nicholas Puran who smashed his first
01:08delivery for a boundary. His partner Roy was going ballistic and got to his
01:16half century in style.
01:19And that's a belligerent 50. The two put on a partnership with 73 runs for the second
01:24wicket. Oh dear. He's been dropped. Roy was caught behind for 64 of 34 balls
01:30giving Tabrez Shamsi the scalp. Puran lived a charmed life being dropped
01:36quite a few times. Another chance to get Puran. Will they take this one? No they
01:41will not. Tim David wasn't that fortunate as he was caught in bowl by Anrich
01:45Nokia for nine. The Patriots paid for their faux pas with Puran making sure
01:50that the opposition would end the season with a solitary win. He finished on 93
01:54not out of 43 deliveries with six fours and seven sixes. TKR reached 197 for
02:01three from 18.3 overs to win by seven wickets and they remain in fourth
02:06position.
