SKN vs TKR: Captains' Say

Andre Fletcher (St. Kitts & Nevis Patriots): "We would have bowled first as well. But we want to put the runs on the board now and look to defend as well.

We have two changes today. Josh Clarkson is back and Jeremiah Louis is making his CPL debut today.

Yes, we have been disappointing this season and we know that. The crowds have supported us still. We want to go out there and entertain our fans. Hope to end on a winning note."    

Kieron Pollard(Trinbago Knight Riders Captain): "We are going to bowl first. First game here and obviously we don't have the idea of how the wicket will behave. So ya!

Yes, staying in top two is very important. We have had a good time at Guyana and hopefully we will continue here and finish the tournament well. Yes, spinners are going to have a lot of role. If you see the Guyana leg, it was spinning with a lot of low bounce. 

We have three changes. One forced change and that is Narine misses out, Bravo comes in. Joshua Little goes out and another change for us is Shaqkere Parris is not in the line up."
