8.41pm Innings break Shai Hope the star with an unbeaten 102 from 57 balls but you do wonder if 214 for 4 is slightly unders. The average first innings score in the CPL here last season was 205 but two scores of over 250 were made. Australia will be delighted with only conceding 49 in the last five. Abbott and Ellis were awesome.

Brandon King: "Here at St Kitts it's always a good wicket. The ground is very small. It's another belter today. We wanted someone to go deep today and the skipper did that today and congratulations to him. It's good to show some consistency. It's a bit easier in this format compared to the Tests. The wind is a factor. Hopefully we can bowl to that."

Peter: "Given every other bowler (apart from the extraordinary Abbott) went for 11 an over it was a pretty good spell from Ellis as well."

Gnasher will be back for the chase shortly.
