00:00After losing to the Trindygonite Riders, the Barbados Tridents bounced back and took care of St. Lucia Kings by eight
00:05wickets on Sunday night.
00:07However, the Tridents are still last, whereas the Kings are fourth on the Republic Bank CPL standings.
00:13After suffering four losses in a row, Tridents captain Chris Green was a relieved man.
00:18It feels good, anytime you win it puts a smile on your face, but I think really proud of everyone's
00:23performance tonight.
00:24It's probably our closest efforts to a complete game of cricket.
00:28Fielding was tough out there for both sides. It was very wet, a lot of dew, a lot of rain
00:32had fallen.
00:33So, yeah, really proud of our efforts and those two batting at the end seeing us home was fantastic.
00:38Green lauded his bowlers for keeping things tight in the last couple of games.
00:42He was also impressed with Jakeem Pollard, who was economical.
00:45Yeah, look, I don't know if I can take all the credit for that.
00:48I think the execution the last two games has been fantastic.
00:51Jakeem Pollard coming in in these two games, impressing straight away as a youngster in his home conditions.
00:57Obviously the excitement's there, but naturally the nerves are there and I've been really impressed and proud of him,
01:02the way he's gone about it and really stood up to that opportunity and grabbed it with both hands.
01:06All our young players have done that since we've come home.
01:09So that's the thing that I've asked for this season.
01:11There's a lot of senior players around this group, but the youngsters are the one that are going to win
01:15us this tournament.
01:15It was a second straight loss for the St. Lucia Kings. According to skipper Roston Chase, it was a bad
01:21night overall for the St. Lucia franchise.
01:24I just thought that we were about 15, 20 runs short. I thought we left it out there. We were
01:28in a good position coming into the last five, four overs.
01:32And then we didn't get that momentum in the end. They got too many wickets in clumps at the end
01:38there and we didn't get too much wickets.
01:40And then having a low score like that, I think you need to get wickets early in the power play.
01:45We didn't really get too many wickets and then we put down some crucial chances and I thought we were
01:49poor in the field as well.
01:50The Kings have one more game, whereas the Tridents still have three, with both fighting for a playoff spot.
01:57Now all I need to use is export.
