- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR17.6 Another chance....Faf, and this time he takes. He ain't dropping that again, not twice in two balls. Carbon copy of the earlier ball. Slower length ball on off, he backs away once more, and ends up ballooning the ball straight up. Faf gets across and takes it. A relieved look on his face 170/65.1 And he strikes first ball! Full-length ball just outside off. McKenzie doesn't bother looking at a couple of deliveries and eyes the boundary first ball. Fails to get underneath, and drags to mid-on where Faf takes a simple catch. 44/17.6 Chase gets his man this time as Brooks falls. He was looking for a repeat of the earlier six in the over. But Chase, this time, got it slower and tossed the ball up on off. That meant Brooks dragged his slog, and deep midwicket was stationed perfectly for the catch. 62/28.3 Jangoo falls for a second-ball duck and Joseph's time to register on the board! Things are on the up for the home side and it is Joseph's pace that does Jangoo in. Was a back of a length ball on his hips, he swivels and pulls but is a touch late on his shot and ends up hitting it straight down deep backward square leg's throat. 63/315.1 In the aiiiir, and Sean Williams holds onto an excellent catch at long on! That went miles up the air, but he got more height than distance. Chase gets it slower on off, he backs away but is a touch early into his shot. Does not reach the pitch of the ball as Williams sets himself running in from long on, and falls flat on his back completing the catch, but stays inside the field of play 140/416.1 Excellent bowling, and excellent fielding from Joseph does Allen in! Hurries the back of a length ball into his body as Allen is on his toes, cramped for room. The ball hits his thigh pad and goes towards the bowler as they set off for a run. But Joseph is quick in his follow-through, picks the ball up and throws down the non-striker's stumps. The dive couldn't save Allen 156/519.6 A team hat-trick for St Lucia Kings and Tallawahs are all out for 187! Back of a length ball into Imad's body as he backs away and swings at the pull. Chris Sole at deep midwicket steadies himself and takes a good catch right at the edge of the boundary. That was pulled with some authority. 187/1018.5 Joseph does not even bother looking back. He is that convinced he has his man. Inch-perfect yorker bang on middle. Green is well back in his crease, gets no bat on it and is struck well in front. Green belatedly reviews, more in hope than anything. No luck, ball-tracker shows that would have taken out middle and leg stump 181/719.4 Both batters at the same end, and a run out ensues. A lot happened on that ball. A drop catch to start off, a run out to end. Fuller outside off, he miscues it straight up as extra cover goes back, tries a one-handed catch and misses. The throw comes in quickly though and both Imad and Amir were found to be at the same end. Forde whips off the bails on the second attempt. 186/819.5 Another run out, another wicket! Diamond duck for Nicholson Gordon. Slower back of a length ball outside off, he slaps to Williams at wide long off. He sends in a good flat throw, and Gordon is well short. 187/9Extras18 (b 1, lb 7, w 10)TOTAL187 all out (20 Overs, RR: 9.35)Fall of wickets: 1-44 (Kirk McKenzie, 5.1 ov), 2-62 (Shamarh Brooks, 7.6 ov), 3-63 (Amir Jangoo, 8.3 ov), 4-140 (Raymon Reifer, 15.1 ov), 5-156 (Fabian Allen, 16.1 ov), 6-170 (Brandon King, 17.6 ov), 7-181 (Chris Green, 18.5 ov), 8-186 (Mohammad Amir, 19.4 ov), 9-187 (Nicholson Gordon, 19.5 ov), 10-187 (Imad Wasim, 19.6 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR7.3 Goes straight up to Fabian Allen, who will take these every day of the week. Third time unlucky for Charles. Green gets him and Kings lose their second. Was looped up just a touch by Green on off. Charles looks to muscles it away, but fails to reach the pitch of it. The ball spoons straight up and Allen gets across from long off to pouch it. The umpires are checking for the no-ball. Green is fine. 57/23.1 Straight down long-on's throat and Faf is a goner! Just two fielders out and Faf finds one. Slower length ball angled in on leg stump. Faf backs away, and think wanted to go straighter. Instead, drags it to Green, who ain't dropping those. 25/111.1 Top-edge goes straight to short third! Fired in outside leg stump. Williams backs away and jumps down the track looking to hoick it away despite not reaching the pitch of the ball. There is some turn as Green induces a top-edge and Irshad does the rest. 90/319.1 Oh, Chase misses out on a full toss and has his stumps disturbed! Not the most ideal deliveries, but does the job and Tallawahs will heave a high of relief. On leg stump, he backs away and the ball does dip on him a touch. Loses his shape completely as the ball hits leg stump 169/713.5 Raza's struggles end with a slog! Imad gets the length ball going for him on leg stump. Raza tries to get under it, fails to do so. Lines up the slog sweep that goes up rather than far, as deep midwicket sprints to his right and completes the catch 104/413.6 Is he gone first ball? Jangoo was celebrating straight away, but the umpire stays unmoved. They take the review. Flatter length ball just outside off. He looks for the cut but the ball was too close to his body. And UltraEdge confirms a tiny edge through to the keeper. The umpire has to change his decision. Two in two for Imad. 104/518.5 Gets the run out now does Amir, and he gets rid of the dangerous Primus. Full on off, he gets a thick inside-edge back onto the pads with the ball ballooning straight up. He loses track of the ball and sets off for a run. Amir under-arms it back onto the stumps at the striker's end and Primus is well short. 165/619.3 Cleans up Forde with another searing yorker! Right in the blockhole on off stump. Forde looks for an ungainly slog, misses and Irshad hits Bullseye. The off pole takes a beating and Tallawahs are now on the brink. 170/8Extras12 (b 1, w 11)TOTAL176/8 (20 Overs, RR: 8.8)Did not bat: CB SoleFall of wickets: 1-25 (Faf du Plessis, 3.1 ov), 2-57 (Johnson Charles, 7.3 ov), 3-90 (Sean Williams, 11.1 ov), 4-104 (Sikandar Raza, 13.5 ov), 5-104 (Kimani Melius, 13.6 ov), 6-165 (Roshon Primus, 18.5 ov), 7-169 (Roston Chase, 19.1 ov), 8-170 (Matthew Forde, 19.3 ov)
