Skipper of the Jamaica Kingsmen - Rovman Powell says having one of their overseas players step up and win the game for them was outstanding. He adds that it was a good wicket, and as a bowling group, they had to execute their plans well. Powell says bowling yorkers was the key to their success. He acknowledges that it’s a tough schedule, with the team facing the Knight Riders after just a day’s break, but says they need to be ready for the challenge as professional players.

The captain of the St Kitts and Nevis Patriots - Jason Holder admits that they need to be better, saying the Kingsmen were on par with the bat, but their own batting performance let them down. He feels the bowlers did a good job, especially on a small ground, but believes they simply did not bat well enough. Holder adds that they need to sit down and assess their combinations, with just one win from five games meaning they need to make some changes going forward.

Presentation time...

Player of the Match - Saim Ayub is the Player of the Match for his 102 runs and 1/20 off his four overs with the ball. He says he played according to the flow of the game, with a plan to target a particular bowler, while emphasising that batting sensibly was the key. He laughs when saying that his team should not expect too much from him with the ball, but is glad that it came off well today. He concludes by saying that injuries are not always in his control, but for him, the key is to come back stronger each time.

Saim Ayub’s Century powers Kingsmen - Earlier in the day, the Kingsmen posted 182/7 after being put in to bat, powered by a brilliant 102 off 58 balls from Saim Ayub. Rovman Powell and Keemo Paul also chipped in with useful contributions to keep the scoreboard moving. For the Patriots, Naseem Shah, Wanindu Hasaranga, and McCoy were the standout bowlers, with Hasaranga particularly impressive with his economical spell. The Kingsmen will be delighted with their all-round effort, while the Patriots will look to address their shortcomings and bounce back strongly.

Kingsmen bowlers rise to the occasion - For the Jamaica Kingsmen, Hunain Shah led the bowling attack with two wickets and an economical spell.

Nail-biting win for the Kingsmen - Phew! What a thriller! The Jamaica Kingsmen held their nerve to beat the St Kitts and Nevis Patriots by 11 runs and secure their third win of the season. Chasing 183 for victory, the Patriots found themselves in trouble at 64/4 in the 11th over.
