David Wiese (St Lucia Kings Captain): "Ya! Ya! Outstanding cricket. I would like to thank everyone to come and support us. We couldn't asked for anything better. Boys have been brilliant with both bat and ball since the last few games. Three straight wins are a good thing to have.
The hot condition and a day but that is not an excuse. We have to do better. 204 was a par score in this conditions. Somehow I think they scored 20 runs more. Getting 94 on the board inside the powerplay is a big thing for us.
Seifert is such an outstanding player. He will hit anything in his slot. You have to give him the credit.

Imad Wasim (Antigua & Barbuda Falcons Captain): "It was a very good pitch. We lacked scoring runs but scored 204 today and we will take that any day. Yes fielding wins you games. First ball no-ball will not help you any day.
Amir Jangoo played very well. We needed something of that sort. Shakib played some good cricket today. 200 is a good total. I will take that any day. A sluggish fielding approach cost us.
Tim Seifert has played outstandingly. You have to give him the credit."

Tim Seifert (Player of the Match): "The rain is lovely, but at the end of the day, the win feels amazing and puts us in a strong position in the points table. This is probably one of the better wickets in the CPL, and I wanted to make the most of it.
Charles and I wanted to get us off to a good start and put some pressure on them. We may not be able to do it every game, but we try our best. We had a street party, and that's a hot dance in the Caribbean, so might as well do it."

Player of the Match: Tim Seifert
11:56 PM IST and 2:26 PM Local Time | St Lucia Kings have shown a terrific and destructive batting performance to topple the Antigua & Barbuda Falcons. They have chased down the 205-run target within 18 overs and Tim Seifert is the chief architect of this victory.
Earlier SLK skipper David Wiese sent ABF to bat first. Amir Jangoo and Jewel Andrew registered a 51-run partnership but just after the powerplay ended, Tabraiz Shamsi removed Andrew and in the very next ball he took the outside edge of Karima Gore. Just when the momentum slipped out of the Falcons' hands, Shakib Al Hasan stepped up.
Shakib and Amir Jangoo took the game deep. They together added 91 runs for the 3rd wicket where Shakib was the aggressor. Shakib hit the bowlers for fun and scored 61 runs off just 26 balls with 5 fours and an equal number of sixes. Jangoo played the anchor's role and he departed scoring 56 runs off 43 balls with 6 fours and 2 maximums. Fabian Allen added some late impetus and remained unbeaten scoring 38 off 17 balls hitting 4 fours and 3 maximums to help his team cross the 200-run mark and finish with 204/4.
Tabraiz Shamsi took 3 wickets for the Kings and Delano Potgieter removed Shakib Al Hasan.
Johnson Charles and Tim Seifert came to open the innings for the St Lucia Kings. Imad Wasim started off with a no-ball and Seifert got off the mark hitting the free-hit ball for a maximum. He and Charles added 40 runs in the first 15 balls before Charles gloved one to Jangoo off Irshad and got out on 17. Seifert didn't stop. He and Ackeem Auguste started piling up the runs. SLK scored 94 off the 6 overs of powerplay and Seifert scored the bulk of the runs. Tim Seifert mistimed a ball and that aerial catch landed safely and that was his only mistake.
Tim Seifert reached to his fifty in just 18 balls and scored 55 runs off his 74-run stand with Auguste. Auguste and Roston Chase played second fiddles to him and he single handedly led the run chase. He got to his hundred in just 40 balls equalling the record of fastest CPL hundred with Andre Russell. Tim David helped Seifert out as he scored 19 runs off 16 balls.
