    5.6 Off-stump goes cartwheeling! The aging warrior does it again, gets his man on the final ball of the powerplay. Hard length and holds its line on off, he backs away to slam a cut and ends up chopping it back onto the stump! 45/1
    7.5 Kings draw first blood. over the wicket, as short as possible and almost kissing the tramline on off, he reaches out and flirts with the lousy delivery, forcing it to deep cover-point I reckon and taken calmly by the fielder, harmless delivery brings about his demise 62/2
    18.1 over the wicket, length ball and wide of off and slackesn the pace, not much bounce and he takes the aerial route, wanted to club it to extra cover, found Chase at backward point, simplest of the catches. Big wicket! 139/8
    11.1 Touch short and angles on off, he shuffles across and flicks it straight into the hands of deep backward square, plucked instinctively and that's a massive wicket! 83/3
    12.3 tossed right up to the toes, tries to broom it away and ends up a getting a top-edge that balloons up, finds a nestle in the hands of the fielder at deep square. Rotates his left shoulder vigrously in celebration and then points to someone in the dressing room maybe, I don't know, Shamsi and his unusual and eccentric celebrations 95/4
    12.6 oh, that's a terrific legbreak, pitched up and turns back markedly, fails to flick it away and gets thumped on the front pad. Looks very plumb, umpire had no hesitation whatsoever. Shamsi is off, rotating his arm, and then points to someone again, what is he doing? 98/5
    15.1 disturbs the furniture, crockery and the utensils as well! Tossed up, keeping it wicket to wicket, tries to boom a pull to the leg side, ball skids through, stays low and he gets castled. Crucial breakthrough, got to apply brakes and the wickets are the best brakes 107/6
    16.6 triggers an erros, induces a false stroke! How often Shamsi does that? Ego was hurt, he comes back strongly after being dispatched for a four, fuller wrong'un on middle, inside edge pops up and keeper backtracks to pouch it. Another interesting celebration. I think he is writing something 126/7
    19.2 Fuller around the line off, tries to whack it out of the park, finds the big bucket hands of Tim David, he seldom drop those, very safe fielder in the deep 155/9
    19.5 You miss, I hit! Wrecks the stumps with a pinpoint accurate fuller one that does a little in the air, he goes down for a big swipe across the line, threw what they call the kitchen sink and ends up lighting the zingers. Excellent delivery, all out for 157 157/10

    0.6 THAT IS A CRACKERJACK! What a great sight for the bowler, looks away batter! Hard length and nips back just enough to sneak through the defence and rattle the stumps. Middle-stump uprooted, Tim Seifert has to go, wanted to hit him down the ground in a dismissive way, perishes in the process. WHAT A DELIVERY! length was the key here 2/1
    1.6 Shorter in length and rises alarmingly off the deck, rushes him, and he tries to play a big shot down the ground, finds the man at mid-off. Little late on the shot and he knew he made a fatal error, shake of the head as soon as he connected. Kings in a little bit of a pickle 10/2
    2.5 Good length on off, gets behind the line and lofts it in the air, Hetmyer sprints to his right and times the jump to perfection, so smooth as silk, ball was going away from him but he kept sprinting and then the last big lunge helped him get underneath the ball, made sure to cling on. He has taken many running catches like that, very safe fielder in the outfield. Excllent catch, shows he has practiced this a lot. caught at long off 12/3

    6.4 steps leg-side and loads up for an almighty heave towards midwicket, he tries to break the shackles and dominate, ends up missing the fuller skiddy ball that disturbs the leg-stump. He gets the big fish! 40-4- Now the target seems light years away. Just when they got a partnership going and a semblance of control, Motie delivers the sucker punch 40/4
    7.4 wanders down leg for a slog sweep across the line, too adventurous! ball turns away from middle a fraction and pings the middle-stump. This is suicidal batting, disappointing to say the least. Tahir is off, produced the first bit of magic with his dexterity 44/6
    6.5 Two-in-two! It's carnage out there! Oh my goodness! Motie is on fire, he is unstoppable, what a bowler! He is at his prime! David gingerly tries to punch and play down the wrong line, quicker delivery on off, off-stump knocked back. Oh, this is turning out to be one-way traffic. Another huge breakthrough. 40/5
    8.4 wheels continue to come off!!! collapsing quickly, Motie picks his third. Tossed up into the pads, he decides to take the aerial route, miscuing the skier, finding the man at long-off. Kings already surrendered. Shepherd with a wonderful diving catch at deep extra cover 48/7
    16.5 And with his wicket, the hopes go up in smoke as well! Down on one knee for a full-throttle slog sweep, gets a thick outside edge and Pretorius takes a spectacular running and diving catch to his right! 117/9
    13.1 Cries of catch it and Motie hears it! You cannot keep him out of the game! Tossed full and just outside off with a hint of spin, tempts him to go big downtown, taken at long-on and Tahir is never out of energy, wild celebrations underway, two wickets away from a resounding and a ticket to the final, wohoo! 85/8
    19.1 That's all she wrote. Around the wicket, landed short and wide, casual waft at it and fittingly Tahir gobbles it up at cover inside the 30 yard ring. Amazon Warriors have confirmed their place in the final not before being given a real scare by St. Lucia Kings 143/10
