8.12pm Righto, Roy's 56-ball 73 and Karim Janat's late cameo has taken Warriorz to 162 for 7, but Vipers will be happy with that. The Vipers that topped the league stage finally came to the party with the ball after a slight blip in the last few matches. They understood the surface early, and made sure to not give the batters any pace to work with, especially in the middle overs. Nathan Sowter, David Payne and Khuzaima Tanveer all picked two wickets. Can Vipers chase this down and make the final or will Warriorz restrict them? Join us in a bit to find out.
