    10.2 Salamkheil gets Fakhar Zaman! Looped up leg-spinner on a full length outside off. Zaman backs away, trying to go inside out but ends up too far away from the ball. Has to reach out and all he manages is a tame outside edge that is snaffled up by Narine at short third. The pressure pays off, and the Falcons are stuttering! 87/2
    5.5 Narine breaks through! He always does! Much slower and Narine holds the length back too, bowling this on leg stump. Greaves makes room to go inside-out but does not pick the ball that is coming into him. Has a fresh-air shot and because he tried to hit it so hard, he loses his balance too, allowing Pooran to whip off the bails and catch him just short of his ground. Vital breakthrough for the Knight Riders! 65/1
    13.5 castled! Narine exacts revenge! Zipped in full on off stump. Primus, after the success earlier in the over, looks to go inside-out again. Gives himself room but just cannot make any sort of contact. The ball breezes past and his off stump is knocked back. Primus' struggle comes to an end, and the Falcons lose their third! 114/3
    19.5 skies it, and taken by Pollard! Slot ball outside off but Imad cannot capitalize. Looks to go over mid off but the bat face opens upon contact. Gets plenty of height but no distance as Pollard settles under it at mid off and does the rest. A good, enterprising knock that has propelled the Falcons to a 170-plus score! 175/5
    16.6 Jewel Andrew has been put out of his misery! Googly fizzed through on a back of a length outside off. Andrew, feeling the pinch of the scoring rate, has a wild whoosh across the line. Skews it off the outside half of the bat and Russell completes the easiest of catches at backward point! 142/4

    19.6 run out to end the innings! Shortish outside off. Green stands up tall and slaps it towards long off. He has no option but to come back for the second but is struggling massively. Pooran fields it at long off and hits the stumps at the batter's end, with Green not even in the frame! 176/6

    11.5 Gous has to go! Pushed in on a short of a length on middle and leg. The angle keeps coming back into Gous and that does not give him the swinging room he desires. Miscues it slightly and that is enough for Springer to patrol the deep mid wicket fence and snare the chance. The Knight Riders are flagging! 79/4
    1.5 Narine falls early! Slowed up on a length on middle and leg, enticing Narine to look for the lofted shot. Narine walks into that trap and because he is not to the pitch of the ball, he clunks it. Spoons it up to long on and James makes no mistake. The Falcons are up and running! 10/1
    9.4 big appeal and the finger goes up! Darted in quicker on a length on middle and leg. Parris gets caught on the crease and plays all over it. Gets pinned on the back pad and that looked pretty good, at least in real-time. Parris, though, wants to have another look. Nothing on UltraEdge and Ball Tracking shows the ball would have clipped leg stump. Umpire's Call and Parris has to go! 72/2
    9.5 oh, what a grab by Fabian Allen, and that is a massive moment in the game! Fired in full outside off. Pooran plants his front foot and thumps it back at Allen. He somehow gets his right hand to it and ends up parrying it. Holds his nerve thereafter and then, while on his knees, completes the catch. Reflexes like a cat, and that could be a defining moment! 72/3
    18.1 edged and taken! Springer does the trick, and Carty bites the dust! Length delivery hung up way outside off. Carty goes after it but ends up nicking it. A healthy edge through to Billings and Carty is beside himself. That was there to be punished, but he is now walking back to the shed! 155/7
    16.4 chopped on, and Amir turns this game again! Full outside off, daring Pollard to go downtown again. Pollard was never going to pass up that invitation and takes it on. This time, though, the bottom hand takes over too much and he tugs it off the inside edge into his stumps. Amir is pumped, the Falcons are pumped; Pollard, disappointed! 142/5
    17.5 goes straight up, and Allen pouches it! Primus has his man! Hard length just outside off. Zips off the surface and hurries Russell on his pull. He skews it terribly and Allen, haring in from long on, pouches it. Green immediately signals his fielders to be in their positions to not incur further penalties. It is all happening here in Antigua! 153/6
    19.3 middle stump out of the ground, and Primus rises for the Falcons! Dug into the track outside off. Hinds backs away and has a waft at it. Loses all shape and only manages to chop it off the inside edge into his middle stump. The stumps light up, Primus is jubilant and the Falcons are almost there! 168/8
    19.5 hard length outside off. Hosein moves across his stumps and splices it into the mid wicket region. Hosein always seems second-best to complete the second run but there could be a bit of drama with Billings fumbling his collection. Has he done enough to effect the run out? Billings does not take the bails off, but the ball ends up bobbling ono the top of the stumps. The rub of the green goes the Falcons' way, and they can feel and touch that elusive victory now! 170/9
