Scorer: Chetan | Commentator: Rvel Zahid

Shimron Hetmyer, Player of the Match: (on his performance) Brave I guess. The only thing going through my mind was just stay positive. I'm just enjoying my cricket a lot more now. The smile is coming back a lot more now. Words can't explain how great it is to play at home, knowing you have the support of everyone and it's just amazing! (On Shamar Joseph) I think it was only a matter of time for him to start picking wickets. He is an exceptional bowler; we have already seen it in his short career so far. He is really exciting and all he has to do is just keep doing what he is doing and sky is the limit for him. I think it was just us being brave really, in the batting, in the bowling and in field; just forget about the past performance and go out and do our best, play exciting and brave cricket

Patriots had a great chance to get their second win and it seemed under control while Lewis was at the crease but they left too many runs in the last 10 overs and Rilee Rossouw's run-out in the 15th over quickly changed the complexion of the game. Shamar Joseph injected a surge of energy with a hostile spell of bowling, finishing with 3/9 in 2.3 overs. It's a sorry-looking scorecard for Patriots, as Lewis received little support, with only three players reaching double figures. They seemed to lack the belief to chase down the total and pressure got better of them, but credit goes to Imran Tahir for his smart captaincy; he made effective changes and introduced spin from both ends early on. Moeen Ali was almost unplayable today, playing a massive role in making the equation tough for Patriots. Gudakesh Motie held up his end of the bargain, bowling two tight overs while Imran Tahir did a reasonable job on his comeback after struggling in his first spell. Earlier, Hetmyer played in an uninhibited manner, holding the innings together with a refreshing 63-run knock, decorated with some beautiful shots. Later, Romario Shepherd put the cherry on top with a 34-run cameo, hitting crucial runs off John in the last over, which gave Warriors a fighting total

Thank you for your company. For now, it's goodbye from me, Rvel Zahid, and rest of the crew at ESPNcricinfo
