Tridents Crumble in High-Stakes Loss | Barbados News

The Barbados Tridents suffered their first loss of the season, crashing to the Antigua and Barbuda Falcons by 30 runs in a tense T20 thriller. Moeen Ali’s blistering 56 off 37 balls powered the Falcons to 155 for 5, while Joshua James tore through the Tridents’ batting with 3 wickets for just 18 runs. The Tridents, who’d started strong with two wins, collapsed at 125 all out in the 18th over — Rivaldo Clarke’s 27 couldn’t save them as key wickets fell at crucial moments. Skipper Chris Green admitted his team lost composure after a promising stand, panicking under pressure. Still, he stressed this young squad must learn from setbacks — in T20, every game is a lesson. With plenty of matches left, they remain firmly in contention. The Falcons’ win vaulted them back to the top of the table, thanks to a disciplined bowling effort that sealed the deal.
