Fletcher's 81 Goes In Vain As Saint Lucia Falls Short By 27 Runs Against Knight Riders
The double over the champions wasn’t to be for the Saint Lucia Kings, as the Trinbago Knight Riders proved too strong for Faf Du Plessis’ team on Tuesday at Warner Park in the Caribbean Premier League(CPL) 2021. Kesrick Williams stole the show with the ball in the first innings for his team, but unfortunately, the target still seemed out of bounds for the Saint Lucia Kings, who suffered their second defeat of the season.
Opting to bowl first, the Saint Lucia Kings started off with a tidy couple of overs, conceding just 14 of the first two. Lendl Simmons however freed his arms next up, getting a boundary either side of the wicket off Wahab Riaz. The Pakistani pacer though had the last laugh, as he trapped his Caribbean counterpart plumb in front of the wicket off his last ball of the over.
