So that's about it from our side then. This is me Kingshuk Kusari, signing off on behalf of my co-commentator Arjun Bhala. Do sign into OneCricket and CricketExchange for an action packed weekend. 
MOM - Thisara Perera has been adjudged the man of the match for his outstanding effort with the ball, picking up 5 wickets for just 21 runs. 
When this game is looked back on paper, it would never tell the story of how this had actually been. Kieron Pollard has put in an incredible effort to dig his team out of a big hole and has made sure that TKR open their account in the Hero CPL 2021.

They were great with the ball up ahead, with Isuru Udana ripping through the Barbados line-up, scalping a five-fer in the first innings. They managed to bowl out Barbados for just 122 runs in 19.2 overs, in a wicket that had inconsistent bounce on it. TKR employed their variations well and kept switching bowlers to stop the Barbados batsmen from settling.  

Barring Azam Khan and Glenn Phillips, none of the batters looked comfortable, an issue that would provide a lot of headaches for captain Jason Holder and the team management. 

Coming into bowl in the second innings, Barbados almost pulled off an incredible heist, picking up four early wickets, courtesy, the evergreen Mohammad Amir.  However, it was a Kieron Pollard show from there on. He at first soaked in a lot of pressure, and right at the end he blasted like a cannonball, ripping apart the Barbados hopes in a space of just eight balls, in which he hit 5 sixes. 

TKR won the game with 19 balls to spare and 6 wickets remaining.
16.5 T Perera to K Pollard
4 Done! Full toss into the stumps. Pollard smacks the ball through the leg side for four. Incredible effort from the captain to win this game by a convincing margin. 
16.4 T Perera to K Pollard
6 Ohh gets it now. Full ball in the slot for him. Slogs it through the line for a six. Brings up his 50! What an innings has it been. Walked into bat where things looked incredibly difficult and then soaked the pressure till the point he knew he could attack the bowlers back. 
16.3 T Perera to K Pollard
0 Full toss outside off. Pollard goes for the big heavy. Inside edges the bump ball to. the keeper. 
16.2 T Perera to K Pollard
0 Full ball, played back to the bowler. Wanted to smack that straight, does not get the required timing on it. 
16.1 T Perera to K Pollard
4 Inside edge and four. Luck just is not at their side today. Yorker on the off stump. Pollard tries to dig it out, but only manages to inside edge the ball. Any other day, that could have gone on to crash the stumps.

0 Final ball of his day. Bowls an effort ball on the off stump. Squares Ramdin up for one last time tonight. No wicket though. 
15.5 O Thomas to K Pollard

15.4 O Thomas to K Pollard
0 Bouncer, targeted at the head of the batsman. Pollards ducks. 
15.3 O Thomas to K Pollard
0 Length ball. Pollard defends off the backfoot. Rubbing insult to injury this. 
15.2 O Thomas to D Ramdin
1 Ramdin switches ends as well. Places to the leg side for a run. 
15.1 O Thomas to K Pollard
1 Oshane Thomas gets his final over now. Goes short outside off. Placed by Pollard for a run.
Kingshuk: So from 3-1-8-0, at the end of the night Jason Holder has to finish at 30 runs off his four overs.

Aah T20!

14.6 J Holder to K Pollard
1 Length on the outside off and Pollard swivels to pull that one away but he doesn't get hold of it as Perera takes the catch and throws it back immediately to the strikers end where Ramdin was struggling to get back, single taken. 
14.6 J Holder to K Pollard
NB Holder has the last laugh. Picks the big fish on the last ball of his spell. OH MY LORD. COME ON. Holder has overstepped yet again. That was a brilliant grab by Thisara at deep mid. That was traveling at rate of knots and Perera manages to hold on to it. Too full again and in the slot for Pollard and he bludgeons it flat to Perera. But does not matter. It was an overstepped delivery as the replays tell. JASON HOLDER WHAT HAVE YOU DONE!
