Scorer: Ranjith P | Commentator: Matt Roller

9.05pm: That'll be it from us this evening. Thanks for joining Ranjith, Peter and myself throughout. We'll be back when the tournament returns on Saturday after a day off tomorrow. Goodnight!

"We know how much support we've been getting," says Chris Green. "It's a tough surface. Everyone knows that. Spin is tough to play against. It was a pity we lost early wickets and then that run-out really cost us after we had some momentum with Taylor and Hetmyer. I loved the character our guys showed to get us to a respectable total. We felt match-up wise with the left-handers in the TKR line-up, left-arm orthodox wouldn't have gone as well as Romario Shepherd."

"Winning the toss and getting early wickets - we were able to hit the first punch," says Kieron Pollard "I thought the guys were fantastic right through. Very pleasing [to see Pierre do well against lefties]. Pierre didn't play the first game against Guyana for that same reason [i.e. due to match-ups]. That will do his confidence a world of good knowing he can bowl to left-handers and get them out. T20 cricket is about momentum. Sometimes in life you take it as it comes, so we'll continue to turn up every time to win cricket matches. That's what is driving us in that dressing room."

Khary Pierre is player of the match for his 3 for 18: "I'd like to thank Almighty God. It was a good all-round team performance and I'm happy for the win. I was watching the games before and the spinners were getting some purchase. It was an easy gameplan, just keeping things disciplined. It's a family. Everyone looks out for each other. I'm happy that I'm part of this team. Guyana are a really good team, with a lot of upcoming T20 stars. We wanted to keep it simple."

No Narine, no problem for TKR. He's missed the last two games through illness, while Ali Khan pulled up after his first over today, and yet their winning streak rolls on - even if they lose all five from here, they're pretty much through to the semi-finals already. Guyana's batting has let them down throughout the tournament this year, and they desperately need to find some form before long, with two wins from six games so far.

Paul to Seifert, FOUR, and that will be that. Five wins from five for Trinbago Knight Riders. In the slot from Paul, and Seifert nails this straight back towards his head. It flies through his hands, and races away for four to loud cheers from the TKR dugout
