    14.6 That is an exceptional catch at long-on by Rahmanullah Gurbaz! Back of a length and angling in at a nagging off-stump line, tries to smoke him downtown and finds Gurbaz who takes a screamer down the ground, it required something special to dismiss the man in form and this was special from the fielder who is not doing wicketkeeping today. Exceptional innings from the skipper who led from the front in this all-important Qualifier - big players step up in big games 156/2

    11.4 Some relief for the home side! Tossed wide of off, caught at long-on by Keemo Paul who keeps his eyes locked on the ball and pouches it brilliantly with Romario Shepherd coming towards him as well; he ran back and did a great job. Finally something to celebrate for Guyana and the packed house! The fireworks finally come to a close after a brilliant knock! 124/1
    18.5 Pulled away in the air but didn't get all of it. A low full-toss wide of off, drags it across the line and it's the easiest of the catches, Gurbaz in action again, pockets it low right under his eyes. Chase takes the long walk back to the pavilion. Missed out on a gentle full-toss. 190/4
    17.4 Chips it in the air, has he got all of it? No, he hasn't. Keemo Paul in action again and takes a simpler catch on this occasion, his second of the night. Lunging forward and tries to power it downtown, gets toe-end of the bat, but didn't look in control and got decent elevation, safely caught in the deep. He bowled on a length and intentionally kept it wider and he tried to drag it across the line 178/3

    18.6 Has he nicked it? It's been sent upstairs. Was bowled wider and he was reaching out with the hands, playing far away from his body, trying to smash that over cover, there is a clear spike on the ultra-edge as the ball passes the bat and it's safely taken by the keeper. Bowled full and just inside the marker on off, smartly bowled, good recovery from Pretorius in his last over 190/5

    7.5 How far will it go? Shimmies a touch to the leg side and goes for the big shot; he didn't get enough. Landed fuller at middle and leg, hung in the air for a long while and then found a nest in Pierre's safe hands at deep midwicket region. It was a knuckle ball 51/2
    3.3 Nonchalantly whipped off the thigh and given a regulation catch to Noor Ahmed at short fine who makes no mistake while lunging forward. Shorter and climbing off the deck, wasn't full throttle fast, tried to guide it behind square and couldn't control the shot. St Lucia off to a brilliant start 22/1
    10.2 Not off the sweat spot; it was tossed up wide from his levers and he leaned back to smoke it downtown and with the rain coming he might have got distracted; laboured shot. Wiese takes a gem at long-off 72/3

    11.1 Pushes forward at it, played down the wrong line and makes a mess of his stumps, length and spins back just enough to sneak through the gap between bat and pad! That is an awesome delivery and Pretorius acknowledges that; huge wicket Noor produces magic on the big night. The scoreboard pressure is conspicuous 77/4
