However, Sunil Narine made a comeback to the CPL 2020 on Tuesday during TKR's fixture against Jamaica Tallawahs. The Trinidad cricketer was right on the money on his return as he scored a quickfire 29 off 11 balls with five fours and one six at a stunning strike-rate of 263.64. Sunil Narine also bowled decently as he gave away just 23 runs in his quota of four overs and bagged one wicket.

Sunil Narine bowled an off-spinner and Asif Ali tried to defend but the ball hit the inside part of the willow and flew towards the TKR spinner. Sunil Narine dived to his right and grabbed a one-handed stunner to send Ali packing for just 7.
