- BATSMENRB4s6sSR0.1 yorker first up! Bye bye King! Edwards slingshot fired this into the base of middle stump. King never really moved his feet and gave a tame attempted flick across the line to midwicket. Incredible he wasn't plunked on the toe but it finds the gap through the gate. Edwards does his windshield wiper celebration. 0/14.5 excellent plan by Edwards, poor shot. Edwards bounced him, continuing with a consistent short ball plan with Bramble determined to hook and pull, this time he makes contact and sends it flat to Powell who has positioned himself perfectly at deep midwicket. Catch taken at head height 8 yards in from the rope. Edwards and the Tallawahs huddle struggle to contain their glee at having pulled that off. Always looks sloppy caught on the rope when there's only two men out for the Powerplay. 17/31.6 and the bonus ball works to Mujeeb's advantage! Full on middle and leg, Hetmyer prods forward in defense playing for turn when there was none, huge shout upheld. Looked very very iffy live and replays only reinforce the fact that with no turn, this one may very well have slid past leg stump with Hetmyer well forward hit in front of middle as Mujeeb slides the ball on from the angle around the wicket. 11/212.4 yorker in front of middle hits Taylor on the toes and is stone dead! He plays around his pads trying to flick to midwicket. Missed badly and it was ripping out middle. Taylor is unhappy... that he didn't play a better shot? No inside edge from the replays. 61/610.4 the skiddy one cleans up Pooran again! This is a near carbon copy of his performance against the Warriors the first time around. Zips this on a good length at 97 kph, Pooran goes back but it is too quick with too much undercutting spin and skids on almost like a slice tennis backhand. Before Pooran can get his bat down, middle stump has already been knocked back. 55/411.1 Rutherford tries to go against the turn and pays the price! Lamichhane has been bowling nothing but googlies to the lefties. Pooran played every ball with the turn cutting to the offside for singles. Rutherford impetuously tries to slog him over midwicket and predictably a top edge is the result. It floats to extra cover who takes the catch running 15 yards right along the ring, reaching out to claim it in stride at chest height. 56/518.3 yorker on middle and leg, Paul fans across it with a limp flick and then stands there while Edwards appeals, resigned to his fate rather than trying to set off for a leg bye. It was ripping out leg. 91/814.1 edged to slip! Mujeeb on fire. Zippy delivery full on off stump, little footwork as Green prods belatedly and stabs it off the edge flying quick and low to Powell, who takes it at ankle height. Third umpire wants to have a look if it carried but Green is happy to walk off. It remains out. 63/719.6 attempted yorker is a low full toss on middle, chipped to long-off and Tahir comes back for the second. Philliips misses a flick on at the striker's end trying to run out Tahir, who then tries to take a third off an overthrow but the second relay to Powell at the bowler's end has Tahir short by 6 yards. 108/9Extras17 (lb 5, w 12)TOTAL108/9 (20 Overs, RR: 5.4)Did not bat: AR NeddFall of wickets: 1-0 (Brandon King, 0.1 ov), 2-11 (Shimron Hetmyer, 1.6 ov), 3-17 (Anthony Bramble, 4.5 ov), 4-55 (Nicholas Pooran, 10.4 ov), 5-56 (Sherfane Rutherford, 11.1 ov), 6-61 (Ross Taylor, 12.4 ov), 7-63 (Chris Green, 14.1 ov), 8-91 (Keemo Paul, 18.3 ov), 9-108 (Imran Tahir, 19.6 ov)

- BATSMENRB4s6sSR5.5 good length ball at 126 kph on fifth stump, tries to repeat the shot but didn't shuffle across to get in line and it flies off a thick edge to Keemo Paul at backward point, taking the catch at thigh height crouching on his knees. Naveen roars. He still thinks the Warriors have a chance. 40/21.4 googly finally works the magic! Pitched perfectly on fourth stump, Walton prods forward tentatively and it breaks through the gap between bat and pad. Walton will be happy no to have to face the Warriors spinners again this season. 6/110.2 full and wide outside off, Blackwood goes to drive and appears to have gotten a toe edge. Didn't look like it carried to the keeper but Bramble appeals wildly. They're going to the third umpire. One replay angle does look like it carried. A second angle looks like a bump ball. The better angle is behind the bowler and that looks like it should be out for sure. Third umpire finally confirms it. Blackwood has to go and Naveen has two wickets out of nowhere. 62/57.2 super catch from Green running in from long-on! Short on off, pulls this off a skewed top edge, it flutters toward Green charging in without hesitation from the rope and he dives forward full extension to claim this spectacularly. If it was a bigger target they were defending, that would be a major momentum shifter. Could it still be in this match? 49/38.3 awful shot has Powell caught at long-off! Short on fifth stump, tries to flat bat this on one leg over the rope and Green only has to move two steps left to take this catch, standing two yards in side the rope. What on earth is the Tallawahs captain thinking? 53/4Extras5 (lb 2, w 3)TOTAL113/5 (18 Overs, RR: 6.27)Fall of wickets: 1-6 (Chadwick Walton, 1.4 ov), 2-40 (Glenn Phillips, 5.5 ov), 3-49 (Asif Ali, 7.2 ov), 4-53 (Rovman Powell, 8.3 ov), 5-62 (Jermaine Blackwood, 10.2 ov)
