TRINBAGO Knight Riders announced today that they have signed Kieron Pollard as their Marquee Player for the 2019 Hero Caribbean Premier League (CPL) which will be played from September 4 to October 12, 2019.

The Trinidadian all-rounder, who played for Barbados Tridents from 2013 to 2017 and for St Lucia Stars in 2018, will be playing for his home franchise for the first time in his Hero CPL career in 2019.

Making the announcement, Venky Mysore, Director of TKR said, “We are delighted to welcome Pollard back home and it’s great to continue our efforts to bring as many Trini boys home as possible. I can’t wait for the reaction of the fans when Pollard takes the field at our opening game on September 4.”

Pollard will be hoping to help TKR add to the three championships they have won in the last four tournaments in 2015, 2017 & 2018.

Pollard has played in 474 T20 matches so brings a vast amount of experience to the Knight Riders squad, from CPL and from tournaments around the world.

The rest of the Trinbago Knight Riders squad will be decided at the Hero CPL Players Draft, which takes place on May 22, 2019.
