Tridents did an excellent job with the ball as they restricted the Zouks to only 92 runs in the first innings. Hayden Walsh took a three-wicket haul while Raymon Reifer picked up two wickets in his one over as Barbados bowled out their rivals in 18 overs. Chasing 93 runs, Tridents made a good start as they were 34/1 after the powerplay.
