    8.4 oh wow, how has Edward managed that?! This is a brutish delivery, pitching on middle and off, and then kicking up at the batter. Andrew tries to get out of the way but soon realizes that is not possible. In the end, he tries to glide it past short third, but all he does is offer Tariq some catching practice in the ring. A snorter out of nowhere, and Edward has two! 55/3
    2.5 holes out to long off, and Hosein has Cornwall for the fourth time in the CPL! Given a bit of air on a full length just outside off, and Cornwall cannot resist the temptation to have a pop at it. Seems to check his stroke, meaning that even though he times it well, he cannot quite clear Munro on the fence. Simple enough catch, and Hosein has his man yet again! 18/1

    6.4 stumps light up, and Edward is over the moon! Fuller on middle and off, and this seems to shape back in ever so slightly. Gore clears his front leg and aims for the ocean. Makes no contact whatsoever and sees a lot of bright lights around him immediately in the aftermath. Edward liked that. Not sure Gore will share the same sentiment! 40/2
    9.4 trapped in front, and this time, Jacobs might have to walk! Flighted up full again, pitching just outside off and ripping back in. Jacobs' bat is in a different post code, largely because he fails to read it, and he gets pinned on the front pad. Tariq goes up in appeal, and the umpire has no hesitation in raising his finger either. Jacobs does review, but this could be more in hope. No bat involved. Pinged on the knee roll of the front pad, and Ball Tracking has the ball crashing into middle and off. Tariq has his first, and Jacobs' trials and tribulations against spin have come to an end! 60/4
    13.4 soft, soft dismissal, and Tariq has two! Slowed up and bowled after a considerable pause. Pitches on a length just outside off, and holds in the surface a tad. Shakib gets down on the sweep, but the hold off the surface, plus the slight extra bounce, means the ball skews up off the top edge. Narine settles himself at short fine leg and does the rest. The Falcons five down now! 77/5

    18.3 straight to long off, and Allen's fun is over! Also, wicket number 400 for Amir in T20 cricket! Slanted across full and wide, asking Allen to fetch it. He takes up that challenge but comes up second-best. Not quite off the middle of the bat and because he has to reach out away from his body, he does not generate the power he wants either. Regulation chance for Bravo, and Allen walks back disappointed, despite a sprightly 20-ball 45! 146/6

    4.5 soft dismissal, and two in the over for McCoy! Off-pace on a back of a length outside off. Munro tries to be cut and looks to dab it over short third. No pace to work with, however, and all he manages is a gentle chip straight to short third. Munro throws his head back in disappointment, and the dynamic of this powerplay has changed in a trice! 50/2
    4.3 miscued, and taken! Hales' struggles come to an end! Hard length just outside leg, and this skids off the surface. Rushes Hales on the pull and also cramps him for room. He cannot extend his arms, meaning he cannot muster enough power or timing. Skews it towards deep square leg, where Jacobs runs in off the fence and snaps this opening stand just before it ticks to fifty! 49/1
    9.1 Cornwall outwits Pooran, and that is a massive moment in the game! Pooran is absolutely livid with himself, but he has been beaten in the flight by Cornwall here. Cornwall zips this through on a back of a length outside off, perhaps pre-empting the charge. Pooran, despite not being to the pitch of the ball, has a wild swing across the line, and Andrew does the rest, with Pooran frantically trying to make it back. Pooran slaps the turf and then his pads to express his annoyance and disappointment, but nothing he can do about his dismissal now! 68/3
    14.3 this touches the moon and comes back, but only to lead to Carty's departure! Slower ball on a length just outside off. Carty wants to find the stands but does not pick the slower one. Too early into the stroke and the ball goes extraordinarily high. Mir settles under it at deep backward square leg and when the ball does come down with snow on it, he gobbles up the chance. This chase is flagging! 103/5
    12.3 catch it is the call, and that is exactly what Allen does! Shakib dangles the carrot outside off and Bravo bites. He gets down on one knee, looking to smash this over cow corner. Clinks it off the bottom half of the bat, though, and he is also hitting into the wind. Allen settles himself under the high ball in the wide long on region, and makes no mistake. The Falcons tightening their grip here! 83/4

    16.2 in the air again, and taken this time! McCoy has four, and he is breaking the back of this batting unit! Hard length just outside off, and like the ball that got Hales earlier in the evening, this climbs onto the batter. Hosein cannot control his pull and the ball goes straight up off the top edge. Andrew calls early and does the rest. McCoy is having a night out under the Antiguan lights, and the Knight Riders are reeling now! 110/6
