Formerly known as Trinidad & Tobago Red Steels in 2013, the team was introduced as the initial six teams of the Caribbean Premier League. Now known as the Trinbago Knight Riders, this CPL franchise is based in Trinidad & Tobago in the Caribbean. This team has been feisty from the beginning which was captained by the best all-rounder of the Caribbean, Dwayne Bravo. TKR has always been one of the tournament's most exciting teams from the inaugural series of Caribbean Premier League T20. The team plays their home matches in the Queen's Park Oval-an architectural masterpiece built in the Caribbean.
No team in the CPL has been this successful as the Trinbago Knight Riders, who have won four titles out of the eight. TKR has won CPL trophies in 2015, 2017, 2018 and 2020. While they have won four finals, they played, which means they didn't make the final for the five seasons. On the other hand, it also means that once they play a final, chances of them winning are high. If you are keen to bet on the Caribbean Premier League, you'll know that TKR is a good choice to keep placing your bets. Retained players Kieron Pollard, Andre Russell, Nicholas Pooran and other key players have the potential and skills to emerge victorious, provided the planning goes well.
TKR begins their tournament starting on 30 August 2022 against Guyana Amazon Warriors at Warner's Park, St Kitts & Nevis. Stay tuned on Fun88 to bet on Trinbago Knight Riders in the 10th season of CPL.

The final Trinbago Knight Riders squad for CPL 2022 is as below:
Kieron Pollard, Colin Munro, Khary Pierre, Anderson Phillip, Tion Webster, Akeal Hosein, Sunil Narine, Maheesh Theekshana, Tim Seifert, Seekkuge Prasanna, Terrence Hinds, Shaaron Lewis, Jayden Seales, Leonardo Julien, Ali Khan, , .
Here’s the complete list of Pre-draft retentions and signings for CPL 2022:
Player | Role |
---|---|
Kieron Pollard (Captain) | All-rounder & right-handed batsman |
Andre Russell | Right-handed batsman & right-arm fast bowler |
Sunil Narine | Right-arm off spin bowler & left-handed batsman |
Nicholas Pooran | Left-handed batsman & Right-arm off break bowler |
Akeal Hosein | Slow left-arm orthodox bowler & Left-handed batsman |
Jayden Seales | Right-arm medium-fast bowler & Left-handed batsman |
Tion Webster | Right-handed batsman |
One can easily make a strong case for Captain Pollard being a solid T20 player. His power-hitting with the bat, his exceptional fielding, and his slow medium pace for wicket-taking is outstanding. No wonder he's coined as an 'all-rounder'. On the other hand, Colin Munro has four domestic T20 centuries, According to our prediction, this could be the strongest middle-order for TKR. The bowling isn't their strong forte, but it's good enough. And not to forget, they won the 2020 season without losing a single match. It is fair to say that they are not only the team to beat but are extremely hard to beat.
