Seifert hundred puts Kings on top

CPL – Saint Lucia Kings recorded back-to-back wins as they beat the Trinbago Knight Riders by 36-runs at the Queen’s Park Oval in the Republic Bank Caribbean Premier League (CPL).

Tim Seifert recorded the first century of the CPL season with a sensational 105 not out. It was his second century for the Kings as they made the highest total of the competition so far. Roston Chase led the bowlers with figures of 3 for 24 in what turned out to be a potentially match saving spell.

Chase’s side put into bat by the Knight Riders and they hit their straps from ball one as Tim Seifert and Kamil Pooran got the Kings off to a blistering start inside the PowerPlay. A slightly unorthodox route to 64 for 1 from the first six, with 11 fours and no sixes. Seifert showed the expert form he has shown of late and worked the Knight Riders bowling attack with relative ease all around the ground.
