Usama Mir: "The run-out was like a football skill [laughter]. I tried to grab the ball, but it hit my toes. I didn't see that Hassan was already out of his crease. I know I have been a bit expensive in the past few games. I played in the GSL last month and was bowling really well, so I just tried to bowl in the right areas to get success. Special thanks to Imad Wasim. We met after the last game, and he told me how to bowl in the Caribbean. So I tried to bowl in the right areas and at a good pace to get success. It's a cricket game, and we have to take it seriously. We are not going to take the target easily."

8:28 pm It was a batting disaster class from the home team. This is the Warriors' lowest score in the CPL at their home ground, and their fourth-lowest overall. A slow start from the Warriors was followed by a collapse, as the birthday boy Jayden Seales removed both the openers inside the Powerplay. Seales struck once again just before the Powerplay ended, picking up the wicket of Shimron Hetmyer, leaving the Warriors reeling at 26/3. The Warriors failed to recover from that early setback. Usama Mir got into the action, first with an unintentional misfield that led to the run-out of Hassan Khan, and then followed it up with a peach of a delivery to dismiss the in-form Shai Hope. The Warriors were 60/6 after 10 overs, with Hope being their top scorer at just 26. Usama Mir continued his individual brilliance, bowling out Shepherd and Pretorius with two dream deliveries. A valiant knock from Quinton Sampson in the death overs kept the runs ticking with the lower order. Jayden Seales finished with four wickets, while Usama Mir bagged three.

Springer to bowl the final delivery

Salman is in a lot of discomfort. Right after delivering the ball, he clutched his right groin. The physio is on the field, and Salman is now limping back to the dugout.
