Georgetown, Guyana – The Trinbago Knight Riders secured their fifth Caribbean Premier League (CPL) title with a dramatic three-wicket win over the Guyana Amazon Warriors in a tense final on September 23, 2025, ending a five-year wait for the trophy. Chasing a modest 131, the Knight Riders found themselves in trouble at 116-7, with Guyana’s bowlers exploiting a turning pitch. However, Akeal Hosein turned the game with a match-winning cameo, smashing 16 not out off seven balls, including a six and a four, to steer TKR to victory with 12 balls to spare. The Warriors struggled at 65-5 after 12 overs, with Moeen Ali (10), Shai Hope (12), and Shimron Hetmyer (4 off 13) faltering. The victory marked a triumphant first season for TKR under new captain Nicholas Pooran and coach Dwayne Bravo, cementing their status as the CPL’s most successful franchise.
