Highly impressive finish by TSK, thanks to Hosein's magnificent half-century that has given them a fighting total; one that will give the side plenty of confidence and inspire their bowlers after that late surge. Hosein found his hitting range and received valuable support from Ferreira while earlier, it was Faf du Plessis who laid the foundation for a respectable total, stepping up on the big occasion and not faltering. The pressure of a run chase has to be taken into consideration, so this could well be enough on the board. Rushil Ugarkar, Tristan Luus and Trent Boult were right on the money and kept a lid on the scoring for most of the innings but they'll be a little disappointed about losing their grip at the death and allowing TSK to get off the hook at that pivotal stage

Pollard to Hosein, SIX, around the wicket, pace off shorter in length delivery sprayed wide of off, half-tracker, bashed out of the screws and towards long on, Pooran covers a lot of distance and tries to prevent a four but the ball was swirling and then laded on the rope, six signaled, might have brushed his fingertips
