Adam Hose's brilliant charge towards the end propel Vipers to 169/6. Capitals might feel they lost a bit of control in the death overs. After a few sluggish overs, Vipers went ballistic in the powerplay and raced to fifty. Then, Capitals stemmed the run-flow, and the middle-order crumbled. Alex Hales got three chances and he raced to 49, while Rohan Mustafa stamped his authority with a quickfire fifty. Sikandar Raza found his radar early on and only conceded 28 in his spell with one wicket. Akif Raja was economical too. All in all, it was a good bowling performance. They have a fighting total to defend with a strong bowling attack. I'll be back shortly for the chase.

Mani Babar: "Keep in mind that the Vipers bowling attack is very strong, so even 140-150 is defendable with Amir, Shaheen, Hasaranga. This is a pretty important game for the Vipers as this could take them up to 3rd spot on the table. If i'm correct, Dubai doesn't have the best NRR"
DaWolf: "A bit early to call time on Munro's career. He was actually decent the first couple of games of the BBL including a 99 off 61 in the first game. But yeah he's struggled in this series."

Mani Babar: "Can our eagle Shaheen Shah Afridi make an effect if there is a small total?" I think they need to promote Hasaranga up the batting order
