The Trinbago Knight Riders take a three-match winning streak into Thursday’s visit from the Antigua & Barbuda Falcons.
The Trinbago Knight Riders (4-1, 8 points) look to complete back-to-back victories on Thursday night when they host the Antigua & Barbuda Falcons (2-6, 4 points). A postseason bid looks unlikely for the Falcons, who have just two matches remaining and can finish with a maximum of eight points. The top four teams advance to the knockout stage, with the Guyana Amazon Warriors currently holding the fourth spot. They have six points and five matches left to play. Trinbago beat Guyana on Wednesday night at the Queen’s Park Oval in Port of Spain, Trinidad.
