00:00Krista Crowd is brought to you by Quartz, bringing value home.
00:14So far, it's been one win for TKR and three losses at the Queen's Park Oval.
00:19They now take on the number one team, Antigua and Barbuda Falcons.
00:23How excited are you for the game between TKR and the Antigua and Barbuda Falcons?
00:27Well, I'm so excited that I want TKR to win tonight, right?
00:37And I love TKR. That is my team for the rest of my life.
00:47I understand you are Jaden Seals' dad. How excited are you for this game?
00:51Very excited, very excited to see that, you know, once they get these two points here,
00:55most likely they can go ahead and qualify for the playoffs.
00:58And how proud are you of Jaden?
01:00Very proud, very proud. You know, a hard worker, dedicated to the sport, and he loves the game.
01:05So it's making it easy for him.
01:07Cheers, have a good one.
01:09What an atmosphere it was at the Queen's Park Oval, where TKR were playing their final home game against the
01:15Antigua and Barbuda Falcons.
01:17It was a sea of red at the St. Clair-based venue, with this being the last hoorah for the
01:22spectators.
01:23Yes, ma'am, I see you're supporting Antigua and Barbuda Falcons. How confident are you about their chances?
01:28I am confident that they will win the CPL 2026, all the way from St. Vincent, representing for Antigua Falcons.
01:36Which players do you like?
01:37I like Rakim Cornwall, Fabian Allen, Evan Lewis, Shama Springer, Jaden Seals.
01:45The entire team.
01:47The entire Antigua Falcons. That's my team.
01:50I'm a big fan of Darren Sammy's leadership. So, you know, the entire Kings team. And seeing that one from
01:58St. Vincent, that's my home franchise.
02:00Are you confident that TKR can win the three matches that are remaining in their group stage?
02:05I can't say for the three matches, but this game tonight, not for them to knock out, I'm confident of
02:09that.
02:10And as far as the teams, the players, are there any players you like on the TKR team?
02:15Well, Mr. Polar is one. Mr. Narayana is one. Those two.
02:20It was then time to hear from CPL's head of PR and communications, Peter Miller, who loves the hospitality in
02:26Trinidad.
02:27Yeah, the welcome that you get here in the Trinidad and Tobago media community is always fantastic.
02:31I'm really lucky that over the last decade I've built some really good friendships with people.
02:35And I always feel hugely welcome. It's always very flattering when I don't make it to Trinidad,
02:39when people tell me that they would like me to be here, which is fantastic.
02:42But yeah, the leg itself has been great. You know, we've had showed-out matches and good attendances at all
02:47five games.
02:47I think three games showed-out, two games have been very, very well attended, which is obviously fantastic.
02:53Dana Hussain, who's the media center coordinator for TKR, too, could not be left out.
02:58She just completed 10 years assisting the media and others involved with the CPL.
03:03It's been my pleasure, an absolute pleasure. The media is pretty much family to me by now.
03:09And I thoroughly enjoy my role here at interacting with the media and networking
03:14and being disconnected, the person that, you know, you come to for anything that you need,
03:20for CPL-related or TKR-related. It's been a pleasure.
03:24Looking forward for another 10?
03:26Yeah, well, if they would have me and if the league is that sustainable, has that longevity,
03:32it would be my pleasure to do that.
03:34Then it was back to business with cameraman Jerome Lane as we interacted with more fans.
03:49How are you enjoying the atmosphere of the Queen's Park Oval?
03:52It's everything that went good so far. I mean, I want to support TKR.
03:55So, hopefully it all goes well tonight and by some miracle, we can make this trip happen.
04:00Do you often come to CPL matches?
04:03Sometimes. Not always.
04:05And how are you enjoying the atmosphere?
04:07It's pretty nice, but I prefer south.
04:17Are you a big TKR supporter?
04:19I am a TKR supporter tonight because I am here, but I'm not usually a cricket fan.
04:25We won tickets with the public bank, so we came tonight to support the TKR.
04:30Is this your first time at the Oval?
04:31No, it's not the first time at the Oval, but it's been nine years since I've seen 2020 match,
04:37so I'm very excited.
04:39Have a good one.
04:46We also caught up with this gentleman, Aaron Phillip, who was doing what many wouldn't dare.
04:51And where did he learn that?
04:53Well, I learned it about eight years ago.
05:00I really enjoyed it because it's keeping the culture alive and really breathing life into
05:05carnival and mass and the air all around.
05:09And at the CPL, how do you enjoy doing it?
05:11Oh, I love the CPL.
05:12It's great.
05:13The vibes are lit, literally.
05:15And I'm having a lot of fun every single year that we hear.
05:25In the end, the result did not favour the Knight Riders, who lost to the Falcons by eight runs.
05:31Whatever the case, the fans enjoy themselves.
05:37And you're listening to the Kingsport.
