Darren, who will be available for the entire 2017 CPL, struck 48 retired, slamming three fours and four sixes in a 21-ball innings.

TKR pace bowler Javon Searles, playing for the TT CB XI snatched two wickets for 21 runs, while Philton Williams took 3/12 in two overs.

In reply, TKR player Hamza Tariq slammed 68 off 36 balls as the Board XI posted 199/5 in 20 overs. The Canadian Tariq, who struck four fours and six sixes, was ably supported by Amir Jangoo who scored 51. Jangoo struck nine fours and one six in his 30-ball knock. TKR captain Dwayne Bravo grabbed 2/47 in four overs.

TKR will play the opening match of the 2017 CPL against the St Lucia Stars at 9 pm on Friday in St Lucia.
