9.2
Russell to Mayers, out Caught by Munro!! Gone! Fiercely punched off the back foot but he's picked out the fielder. Munro moves slightly to his left to snaffle it with both hands. The ball was travelling at a quick pace. Mayers didn't bother to keep it down and paid the price. Russell strikes in his first over an TKR have the breakthrough!

Mayers c Munro b Russell 52(33) [4s-5 6s-4]

9.3
Russell to Miller, no run, sharp and skiddy bumper,
David Miller, left handed bat, comes to the crease

In reply to nick2020

It is now time for the S.A to destroy this sugar water bowling!!!!!

12.6
Pollard to de Kock, FOUR, chance, a juggle and Pooran has dropped a sitter, slower ball around off and de Kock heaved it to deep mid-wicket, straight to Pooran who fluffed the catch, then turned around and tried to grab the rebound, but ended up palming it onto the ground and then the ball bounced over the ropes. How costly will this miss prove to be?

13.5
Narine to de Kock, out Caught by Seifert!! The missed chance hasn't cost the Knight Riders a great deal. Flighted and drifting back into the left-hander, extra bounce and de Kock got a massive top-edge on the slog-sweep - Seifert called for the catch, ran across towards square leg and pouches it with ease.

Terrance Hinds [2.0-0-22-0] is back into the attack
17.1
Terrance Hinds to Miller, SIX, straight down the ground

17.2
Terrance Hinds to Miller, FOUR, smashed, too full from Hinds, right in the driving zone and it's drilled back over the non-striker, one bounce and over the ropes

In reply to Narper

It is because he is not a mystery spinner like Narine.

17.3
Terrance Hinds to Miller, SIX, to deep mid-wicket

17.4
Terrance Hinds to Miller, FOUR, to sweeper cover

18.3
Rampaul to Miller, FOUR, to deep mid-wicket

18.6
Rampaul to Miller, out Caught by K Pierre!! A high full-toss, was it above waist high? The umpires will check on TV replays, did look high to the naked eye - Miller was swinging off his hips, gets a big top-edge and it's swallowed at deep square leg. The ball was on its way down and Miller was playing from the crease. A tricky one for the third umpire. Think the bowler could get away with the benefit of doubt? Yes, OUT is the call and Miller falls after a spectacular knock

Miller c K Pierre b Rampaul 60(36) [4s-5 6s-2]

24 run over needed to get over 200 runs.

19.1
Russell to Corbin Bosch, out Azam Khan Run Out!! 1 run completed. Fuller length delivery on the pads, nudged with soft hands and Bosch was always coming back for the second. Was Azam Khan slow in responding? Yes, he's short of the ground. Good work both from the fielder and Russell who collected the throw and threw it onto the stumps.The zing bail lit up finding Azam Khan short - Azam Khan was jogging on the first and wasn't keen on the second, causing his dowmnfall.

Azam Khan run out (K Pierre) 18(11) [6s-2]

19.3
Russell to Holder,cracking shot, tad too short from Russell - Holder swivels across, brings his long levers into play and pulls it behind square on the on-side for a boundary

Is Jimbo injured?

19.5
Russell to Holder, FOUR, nicely played, low full-toss outside off - Holder backs away, opens the face of the bat and then squirts the drive behind square on the off-side for a boundary

19.6
Russell to Holder, SIX, to deep mid-wicket

It is a typical trait in the West Indies, finding a way to lose just for the fun of it.

Obed McCoy to Pooran, out Lbw!! Appeal for lbw and up goes the dreaded finger. Pooran reviews. Full and angled in, Pooran misses the flick to wear it on his front leg. Was the angle taking it down leg? Firstly, no bat and it's been confirmed by UltraEdge. Over to ball-tracking and it's hitting leg! Three reds on HawkEye and TKR are in dire straits

Hayden Walsh to Anderson Phillip, leg byes, 1 run, big appeal for lbw, struck down. Barbados review. Anderson Phillip is rapped on the front pad as he gets forward to block. Gets beaten on the inside edge by the googly to get hit high on the pad. Ball-tracking shows it to be clipping leg - umpire's call and Phillip survives..

In reply to Narper

Walsh bowling that good again or is that the Trini Tail end are rabbits?
