- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR11.2 QDK departs! Length ball outside off, driven gently to extra cover, Imad Wasim collects it cleanly, sends the throw at the striker's end. Wicketkeeper Jangoo sprints towards the stumps, collects the ball and breaks the stumps acrobatically. The single wasn't there from the start, and QDK had to hurry back to the crease, but he is well short of his ground. 91/117.4 Change of pace does the trick! Width on offer length ball in the slot, clears the front leg and swings it away, miscues it to deep midwicket. Seales comes around and completes the catch. 164/218.3 clean bowled! Pinpoint yorker ball darted on the stumps, Powell gets down on one knee and tries to go for the big heave, throws his bat at it early, swing and a miss 170/318.4 Bowled'em! Pace on length ball on the off stump line, held on the pitch for a while, VDD goes for the slog stroke over the midwicket area, massive gap between bat-pad and uprooted the off stump! 170/4Extras14 (lb 5, nb 1, w 8)TOTAL187/4 (20 Overs, RR: 9.35)Fall of wickets: 1-91 (Quinton de Kock, 11.2 ov), 2-164 (Sherfane Rutherford, 17.4 ov), 3-170 (Rovman Powell, 18.3 ov), 4-170 (Rassie van der Dussen, 18.4 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR4.3 deceived by the slower delivery! Off-cutter ball kept low on the off stump line, 109.7 kph, charges down the track and plays across the line, beaten by the lack of pace and bounce, misses the line of the ball and hits the top of the off stump! 45/15.1 Gore has holed out! Short of a length ball on middle-leg, plays the pull shot half-heartedly and connects the leading edge towards deep backward square leg. A regulation catch for Sams there. 46/212.1 Chips it in the air and taken! Slower delivery in the slot wide outside off, Wickham tries to clear the infield, does not get quite hold of it, connects the toe end of the bat and mistimes the stroke to mid-off. The substitute fielder James tracks back and gobbles it up. 110/315.3 Short of a length ball, held on the pitch, plays the pull shot and finds the fielder at deep midwicket. Rutherford makes no mistake and completes the catch near the ropes. 140/416.2 Sams strikes! Offers width outside off on a length, Allen tries to go downtown again, only managed to hit the toe end of the bat and mistimes to long off. 149/519.5 full and straight on the pads, flicked away to long on and calls for the second run, Imad is struggling to get back to his end, James collects it cleanly and sends a bullet throw towards QDK. QDK walks forward and collects the throw, then tosses it at the stumps and hits the timber. Imad Wasim is well short of his ground! 186/6Extras11 (w 11)TOTAL188/6 (20 Overs, RR: 9.4)Fall of wickets: 1-45 (Amir Jangoo, 4.3 ov), 2-46 (Karima Gore, 5.1 ov), 3-110 (Kevin Wickham, 12.1 ov), 4-140 (Shakib Al Hasan, 15.3 ov), 5-149 (Fabian Allen, 16.2 ov), 6-186 (Imad Wasim, 19.5 ov)
