Game 16 of the Republic Bank Caribbean Premier League (CPL) saw Trinbago Knight Riders defeat Barbados Royals by 7 wickets with 13 balls remaining.

It was another pulsating run chase from the Knight Riders, Colin Munro striking 67 off 44 balls to scoop the Player of the Match award as they hauled down the Royals target of 178/6 to go to the top of the CPL points table. 

For the Royals, who were sent in, Sherfane Rutherford top scored with 45 while Kadeem Alleyne scored 41 and captain Rovman Powell weighed in with 31. For the home team, it was Andre Russell who proved to be the main destroyer with the ball with figures of 3/37.
