CPL 2023 Most Runs and Most Wickets standings: Brandon King and Roston Chase top of the charts – Updated after Match 10

The Day 9 of the 2023 CPL edition featured two games taking place at Warner Park Cricket Ground in Basseterre. St Lucia Kings took on Trinibago Knight Riders in a very one-sided affair at 7:30 PM IST. TKR are bowled out inside 15 overs. They were able to stay ahead of the rate throughout but just wouldn't stop losing wickets.

The pitch had variable bounce and was two-paced. St Lucia spinners had an impressive outing. Kharry Pierre finishes with a four-fer. Roston Chase, Peter Hatzoglou, and Sikandar Raza were impressive too. TKR looked right in the hunt when Kieron Pollard and Mark Deyal were going strong. But their dismissals led to a collapse.

The second game was a high-scoring thriller featuring St Kitts and Nevis Patriots and Barbados Royals that was played at 4:30 AM IST. Barbados Royals completed an incredible chase. They got a fiery start with Rahkeem Cornwall taking down the bowlers in the powerplay. He scored 38 in no time before being deceived by Drakes. Kyle Mayers also got a start, scoring a valuable 31 before holing out in the deep.

Things slowed down a bit after both openers were dismissed, especially when Athanaze was batting. He tried hard but couldn't connect anything from the middle. However, his skipper Rovman Powell bailed him out. He unleashed total carnage as he pummelled five fours and as many sixes to keep the Royals in check. He ended unbeaten on 67 off just 29 balls, as Barbados claimed a win with 9 balls to spare.
