With today's win, the Guyana Amazon Warriors have sealed their place in the play-offs with one match still to play. This means the St Kitts and Nevis Patriots are now out of the competition, joining the Barbados Royals. The Warriors still have a chance to move into second place with a win in their next game, which would push the Trinbago Knight Riders down the table. But that's for another day. For now, the action ends here from us for the biggest party in sport. Thank you for staying with us throughout all the cricket action. This is Rashad Mahbub, signing off on behalf of Ranjith. Ta-ta!

Imran Tahir: "I'm really pleased we got over the line. Honestly, I think in the first half, we didn't bowl very well and gave too many runs away. I'd say about 30 runs, and that could have cost us the game. But I'm really pleased with the way the boys pulled it back. [Sampson's innings] It was very important. We knew he's a talented guy who has been making runs. I just showed a little bit of belief in him. I spoke to him, and he was very confident and said he was ready to go for it. And that's what you want to hear from a youngster who wants an opportunity badly. He showed that, so big respect to him and a huge congratulations for coming out and playing the way he did to help us get over the line. It was beautiful to watch. Ideally, we want to finish in the top two. We haven't been playing the cricket we're known for, and we know that. I've been saying that we need to improve. I think today was probably the perfect game to show that we have character. So I hope that we're going to carry on in the same way going forward."

David Wiese: "We're disappointed to take it all the way to the end and not be able to execute on that one last ball. But that's the margins of this game. To come down to one ball, and unfortunately, the rub of the green didn't go our way today. Ackeem Auguste has been playing beautifully for us the whole campaign; he has literally made the number three spot his own. And Roston Chase is just showing why he's a premier player in the world, controlling those middle overs. It was fantastic to see him go. [Chat with Pretorius] I've known Dwaine Pretorius for a long time, and he's had a fantastic campaign. It always sucks when somebody gets one over on you, but he's been in those situations before, where he's been on the receiving end also. At the end of the day, we are all competitors, and we all want to win the game for our team. Unfortunately for me, it didn't go my way today. We have a lot of positives but also a lot of places where we can improve. I still don't think we've gotten our straps completely as a team, specifically as a bowling unit, and that's something we're going to have to address over the next couple of days before those playoff games. Fortunately, we've put ourselves in a position where we can have two chances at it, but you don't want to rely on that. You want to go and get the job done on the first attempt. So we're going to have to reflect and come back stronger over the next couple of days and just nail down one or two skills a bit better than what we did today."

Player of the Match, Quinton Sampson: "First of all, I want to say thank you to God for the opportunity. The coach always told me, 'Sampson, you have to do it for me, at least give me a win.' So I just went out there, was positive, backed myself, and waited for my balls. I just tried to be as smart as possible. I chose my bowlers, chose the opponents I wanted to go up against, and waited for the ball to be in my area before I tried to hit it. It all started for me in a small town not too far from where Keemo Paul belongs. It started small, and I didn't think it would be at this level, but once again, I must thank God for the opportunity. I didn't know I was opening. I hit a boundary off the first ball, and it was a beautiful innings from there."

2:50 pm What a finish! The Warriors got over the line with a six on the very last ball of the match, ending their two-game losing streak. The Warriors had a lively start, with their sixth opening-pair experiment of the season paying off. Quinton Sampson, promoted up the order, dominated the Powerplay, striking boundaries on both the off-side and on-side to score 32 runs inside the first six overs. He brought up his maiden T20 fifty in style, scoring 76 runs off 39 balls. But his storm came to an end when Roston Chase dismissed him with a brilliant delivery. Chase then picked up the wicket of Hetmyer in the next over, and Shamsi took the wicket of Brooks, leaving the Warriors in a spot of bother. A mini batting collapse in the middle overs saw the Warriors lose five wickets in five overs, making the run chase difficult. Shai Hope held his crease, but he was also dismissed in the 18th over after scoring 40 runs. But in the end, it was the Warriors who got over the line after a thrilling finish with no-balls and a missed run-out chance from Tim Seifert. Dwaine Pretorius stepped up and hit a six on the very last ball to send his team into the playoffs. Chase picked up three wickets, and Shamsi got two. So many "what ifs" remain for the Kings, but in the end, it was Pretorius and his team who marched off to the playoffs.

Guyana Amazon Warriors won by 2 wickets

There's a brief delay in the game. The umpire has signaled for the ground staff to come in, and it appears there might be an issue with the stumps at the non-striker's end.
