Karthik is back to kick off the chase.
Raj : "@sachu You got to keep people happy mate. At least that's what we do in our local club cricket. Can't risk offending my main bowlers without giving them overs."
Mohammad Nabi: It's a good surface for spinners. The ball is gripping and that helped a lot. We discussed that the wicket is too soft and the spinner should take chance. All Afghan players are performing in the CPL and we are doing a great job for the national side as well, Nabi, who is now part of the Afghanistan board, says.
11.34am 44 runs from the last five overs have taken the Patriots to a respectable total after Nabi had run through the top order to leave them reeling at 11 for 4. Ben Dunk and Sohail Tanvir provided some semblance of stability before Joseph's fireworks helped them to 110 for 9 with an unbeaten 21 off 13.
SACHU: "Why Sammy? Why? Why would you use a pacer when spinners are doing such a great job? Just why? "
