Updated At:
Trinbago Knight Riders have entered the home leg of CPL 2024. As they start their home leg, the team will witness a major change in their bowling lineup. Imran Tahir has been ruled for the remainder of the season due to an injury and England’s Chris Jordan will be joining the team.
Trinbago Knight Riders are currently in the 4th position in the point table with 3 wins and a single loss. The injury of their skipper Imran Tahir has come out as a major blow for the team.
In this critical situation of the league, the Knight Riders might face difficulties in adjusting the bowling lineup again. The Surrey cricketer is making a comeback to the franchise after an absence of 5 years.
Chris was part of the Knight Riders in 2019 where he played 5 matches and picked up 7 wickets at an economy of 9.05. His international experience will be a huge boost for the pace unit of the TKR.
The Barbados-born pacer will replace Ali Khan in the squad. Ali Khan is another injured player for the Knight Riders who has been ruled out of the entire CPL 2024 season due to an injury.
