Knight Riders vs Amazon Warriors at Tarouba

15.2
Hassan Khan to Russell, no run, shout for LBW and it's been reviewed, think this was drifting down the leg-stump - kept coming back into the right-hander and beat Russell on the inside edge. Has it straightened eenough? Is there an inside edge - the bat and the pad are very close and there's a spike on UltraEdge, but that looks like pad first. We roll onto ball-tracking and it's the bounce that saves Russell - going over the leg-stump and GAW have lost a review

Hassan Khan to Russell, SIX massive, Russell has had enough of blocking and defending - hint of flight from Hassan, he clears his left leg and smotes it high into the night sky, onto the roof at deep mid-wicket for a 102m hit

16.2
Pretorius to Russell, SIX, Russell wants to get this one done in a hurry - on a length and into the pitch, he gets his left leg out of the way and flays it over long-off, hit hard and hit flat for a maximum

Trinbago Knight Riders need 3 runs in 20 balls

16.5
Pretorius to Pollard, no run, a loud shout for LBW, Pretorius had stopped appealing when the umpire's finger finally went up. A flabbergasted Pollard looks on and he then reviews. Is it going down leg with the angle? Was very full and the right-hander was pinned on the pad as he shuffled and missed - think this is sliding down, but umpire's call will do for Pretorius. No bat and UltraEdge confirms the same - onto ball-tracking: It's indeed sliding downh leg and it's a successful review, the original call has been reversed

11:02 pm A proper run chase of the highest order in front of a packed home crowd! The Trinbago Knight Riders completed their win in typical fashion: with the openers setting a blistering tone, a brief wobble in the middle, and a powerful finish with heavy blows. Munro and Hales went berserk in the Powerplay, smashing sixes and fours all around the ground. Their explosive hitting brought up a record-breaking 77 runs--the highest Powerplay score at this ground in the CPL--and an overall opening stand of 116, laying the perfect foundation for the chase despite a few dropped catches and misfields. However, the run chase took a drastic turn after that. Imran Tahir was a one-man show for the Warriors, picking up all four wickets. In his second over, he struck three times, including the wicket of the set batter Munro, who had scored 52 runs off 30 deliveries. The run rate slowed down significantly after Tahir's triple strike, but the Knight Riders still had Pollard, Hales, and Russell to finish the job. Hales was the highest run scorer today, scoring 74 runs and reaching an incredible milestone: 14,000 T20 runs, becoming only the third batter to achieve this feat after Chris Gayle and Kieron Pollard.
