Johnson Charles is the Player of the Match for his 41-ball 53.
On a pitch where there was raging turn, St Lucia Kings have taken two crucial points courtesy fine knocks from Johnson Charles and Tim Seifert. Except for Alleyne and de Kock, none of the other Royals batters managed to get themselves in. Their intent to get as many in the powerplay was right, but they just kept losing wickets. Wiese, who bowled a succession of cutters, was excellent as was Noor Ahmad as they picked up four wickets between themselves to set up the win.
Odinlass: "Barbados Royals at the risk of pulliing a Rajathan Royals at the backend of this tournament!"
