Trinidad: Trinbago Knight Riders knocked out Sandeep Lamichhane\u2019s side Jamaica Tallawahs from the CPL by a convincing nine-wicket victory.<\/p>\n
After winning the toss and opting to bowl first, Riders hardly stepped on any wrong pedal. Tallawahs kept losing wickets in the regular intervals and sluggishly reached 107 for a loss of seven wickets.<\/p>\n
Defending the below-par total, Lamichhane came into action in the fifth over and gave only five runs in his first over.<\/p>\n
In his second over, Lamichhane\u2019s fifth delivery was sent to the stand by Tion Webster. Riders scored eight runs from the over.<\/p>\n
Lamichhane bowled two consecutive wides and gave nine runs in his third over. In Lamichhane\u2019s fourth over, Tion Webster executed an inside out off the fourth ball to score a boundary. Lamichhane gave nine runs in the over.<\/p>\n
Lamichhane finished his four-over quota conceding only 29 runs. He could not take any wicket as the target was too low for compelling Riders to risk.<\/p>\n
Star-studded Riders cruised to the victory within 15 overs at the loss of only one wicket with the help of match-winning innings from Lendl Simmons (54) and Tion Webster (44).<\/p>\n
Riders\u2019 player AkealHosein was adjudged Player of the Match for taking three key wickets conceding only 14 runs.<\/p>\n
Trinbago Knight Riders have not lost any matches this season, having won all eleven games, and will face St Lucia Zouks for the final combat at 7:45 pm on September 10.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe\u2019ve come here and played fantastic cricket throughout the tournament,\u201d Kieron Pollard, winning skipper, said after the match. \u201cSo need the cherry on top (about winning the final).\u201d<\/p>\n
