00:00Trinbegu Night Riders were eliminated from the 2026 Republic Bank CPL after losing by
00:06six wickets to the Guyana Amazon Warriors on Friday night.
00:09TKR ended their campaign with three wins and seven losses and finished last.
00:13After the game, skipper Nicholas Puran expressed disgust following his Golden Duck as TKR were
00:19restricted to 126 for eight.
00:22Definitely disappointing.
00:23Season for us, not only today with the bat, I take full responsibility when it comes to
00:28Obviously that shot I played there.
00:30We got off to a really good start with Mones and Hales there and that was just irresponsible
00:33of myself then.
00:34I feel like we lost our way a bit there in the middle, especially coming here to Guyana.
00:38We know in the middle how important it is just to put a partnership together and then try
00:42to explore at the end after a good start.
00:44Despite the abject performance this season, Puran felt some of the players got valuable
00:48exposure.
00:49Looking ahead, he can only hope for a better 2027 season.
00:53It's a bit of a transition we're going through as well.
00:56A lot of senior players but a lot of young players get the opportunity as well.
00:59As for them to take the opportunity as well, we kind of faltered a bit by saying that it's
01:06an experience and it's an opportunity for the younger guys to learn and to embrace because
01:09we won the title last year.
01:11It doesn't make us a really bad team.
01:12We came this year, yes we didn't qualify but we need to obviously rebuild and come next
01:17year again and try to represent the people of Toronto and we'll go better.
01:20The result made it 100 wins for the Guyana Amazon Warriors in CPL since its inception
01:25in 2013.
01:26For Captain Imran Tahir, this milestone was special.
01:29Look, it feels really special doing it, you know, front of the home crowd and you know,
01:34they always come and support us so I just want to say a big thank you to them.
01:38Our president Dr. Irfan Ali, Dr. Ramroop, you know, their support has been unbelievable.
01:43We feel like, you know, we're part of the family.
01:46Guyana Amazon Warriors now have 16 points with no team being able to catch up to them.
