Match Details
- Match: Trinbago Knight Riders vs Barbados Royals, CPL 2025
- Venue: Brian Lara Stadium, Tarouba
- Date & Time: Saturday, 30 August 2025, 4:30 AM
The Trinbago Knight Riders (TKR) take on the Barbados Royals (BR) in what is sure to be a fantastic game in CPL 2025. TKR has names like Pooran, Russell, and Pollard to lead an extremely star-studded roster, while the Royals can depend on their match winners of their own in de Kock, Powell, and Rutherford. Both teams have very good depth with solid batting lineups as well as good bowling options, so it will be interesting to see matchups between power hitters as well as tactical bowlers as they battle it out together under the lights at the Queen's Park Oval.
Players battle to watch out for:
- Nicholas Pooran vs. Mohammad Amir: Pooran’s aggressive batting coupled with Amir’s swing will set the bar for the powerplay.
- Andre Russell vs. Daniel Sams—In two all-rounders that are world-class, both can change the game bowling or batting.
- Quinton de Kock vs. Sunil Narine—Perhaps the most tactical battle of attacking batsman versus mystery spinner.
- Kieron Pollard and Rovman Powell are two Caribbean muscles for the captaincy of both sides aiming to outmuscle each other in the middle overs.
- Colin Munro vs. Akeal Hosein—Munro’s early aggression will be captured by Hosein's disciplined spin.
