Shah Rukh Khan erupts in joy after Trinbago Knight Riders win 3rd CPL title

For DJ Bravo and his men, the game turned out to be no less than a cake walk

Dwayne Bravo led Trinbago Knight Riders (TKR) registered a historic 8-wicket win against Guyana Amazon Warriors to become the Caribbean Premier League (CPL) champions for the third time. New Zealand opener Colin Munro’s unbeaten 39-ball 68 played the major role in thrashing the Warriors with utmost ease.
