Pollard named CPL
All-Star team captain
By Azad Ali
Three members of the unbeaten
Trinidad and Tobago Knight
Riders (TKR) were selected to play
on the 2020 Hero Caribbean Premier
League (CPL) All-Stars team,
which was announced last week.
First-time finalist, the St Lucia
Zouks — who were defeated by
the TKR — had only one member
selected for the tournament’s
X1. Selections were made by the
commentary team of Tom Moody,
Ian Bishop, Darren Ganga, Danny
Morrison and Samuel Badree.
TKT captain Kieron Pollard
was appointed leader. In addition,
three members of the Amazon
Warriors squad, two players from
the Jamaica Tallawahs, one player
each from St. Kitts, Nevis Patriots
and the 2019 champions Barbados
Tridents were selected for the
team.
“After health discussion and
debate the commentators have
finalized what they believe is a
power-packed all-star X1 from
Hero CPL 2020,” Tom Moody,
CPL’s director of International
Cricket, said. “With a tournament
dominated by world-class
spin there was an abundant of
riches, Imran Khan proved a
challenge to all who came his
way. Kieron Pollard’s all-round
skills again brought some eyecatching
performances, it was an
easy decision to make him the captain
after a flawless league stage.”
