Antigua and Barbuda Falcons vs Trinbago Knight Riders..

Allen to Gous, FOUR runs
picks the gap! Short and wide outside off. Gous throws the kitchen sink at it and slices it between backward point and short third!


Allen to Parris, SIX runs
glorious! Allen drifts into the slot on the stumps and pays the price. Parris gives himself a tad bit of room and then gets his hands through the ball, creaming it over extra cover!

Why old dawg was rested? Old age?

Springer to Parris, FOUR runs
authoritative with a capital A! Banged into the track just outside off and Parris is ready for it. Rocks back and pummels it between deep mid wicket and deep square leg!

Allen to Parris, OUT
big appeal and the finger goes up! Darted in quicker on a length on middle and leg. Parris gets caught on the crease and plays all over it. Gets pinned on the back pad and that looked pretty good, at least in real-time. Parris, though, wants to have another look. Nothing on UltraEdge and Ball Tracking shows the ball would have clipped leg stump. Umpire's Call and Parris has to go!

Trinbago Knight Riders...(9.4/20 ov, T:177) 72/2
Trinbago need 105 runs in 62 balls.

Pooran walks in. But there will be a small break before we get underway again. The Knight Riders need 105 off 62

Allen to Pooran, OUT
oh, what a grab by Fabian Allen, and that is a massive moment in the game!

In order to put a super batsman it will take a super effort. And Allen did just that

....

Allen to Gous, OUT
Gous has to go! Pushed in on a short of a length on middle and leg. The angle keeps coming back into Gous and that does not give him the swinging room he desires. Miscues it slightly and that is enough for Springer to patrol the deep mid wicket fence and snare the chance. The Knight Riders are flagging!

Wickets falling down like rain!!!!

Fabien has not been used properly by ABF. Man is a matchwinner with bat, ball and in the field!

Whappen, Fab Allen shooting his load?

In reply to voiceofreason

Idiot Polly giving you the game ,why change batting lineup...

Primus to Carty, SIX runs
high into the Antiguan night sky, and Carty clears the fence! Slower ball in the slot on middle and off. Carty plants his front foot and launches it a mile up. Some help from the breeze and Allen watches the ball soar over the deep mid wicket fence!

Primus to Pollard, FOUR runs
Pollard lands his first punch! Another slot ball, this time outside off. Pollard transfers his weight forward and bangs it over the bowler's head!

Primus to Pollard, SIX runs
clean as a whistle! In the arc again outside off. Pollard does not even swing at it fully and almost bunts it with a straight bat. Carries 91m and long off was a mere spectator!

This game is getting very interesting. 80 needed off 42. The Knight Riders still have a certain Andre Russell waiting in the shed. Allen to bowl out, and Pollard might just look to take him on

73 needed off 36. Required run-rate back up over 12 runs per over. Springer back for his third

Springer to Pollard, FOUR runs
streaky but Pollard and the Knight Riders will take it! Full outside off. Pollard looks to go downtown and gets it diametrically opposite to where he was probably aiming. Flashes past the keeper and those are four vital runs!

10 off the last over but it is still below what the Knight Riders need at this stage. 63 off 30 now, with the required run-rate a tick over 12.5

Imad Wasim to Carty, SIX runs
back to back sixes for Keacy Carty!

Imad Wasim to Carty, SIX runs
a shot of the highest order! Imad pulls his length back after sensing Carty advance but Carty is just too good on this occasion. Steps down irrespective, holds his shape and smacks it over long on!

My Boy Keacy killing us- Why Keacy why?

That last over might have changed the momentum slightly. 45 needed off 24 now. Amir to bowl

Amir to Pollard, SIX runs
Kieron Pollard special! Full ball angled across outside off and Pollard climbs into it. Bottom hand comes off the bat but Pollard has so much power at his disposal that he pops this nonchalantly over the long off fence!

Amir to Pollard, OUT
chopped on, and Amir turns this game again!

Primus to Russell, SIX runs
Russell goes big, and he goes very big! Slot ball on off stump and that is right up Russell's alley. Free swing through the line and he mousses it over long on!

The Falcons, by the way, have already been penalized for a slow over-rate. Just four fielders outside the circle since the start of this over


Primus to Russell, OUT
goes straight up, and Allen pouches it! Primus has his man!

Come on Primus - Ok just 7 off 3 balls. Keep it tight for the next 3.

This is what happens when you disrespect a team.and the game. This is cricket and the Trinis did not take this game seriously. Even if by a miracle they win, they would have learnt a lesson.

That Man Fabien again! What a catch! Russell gone.

22 runs from 12 balls.
