Russell to Powell, out Caught by Munro! This is high. Does it have the distance? No, taken! Excellent catch very close to the rope. Full and wide of off stump, Powell went for a smash over cover, sliced it high. Munro had to take a step back and grab overhead but he balanced himself so well to ensure he didn't step on the line. Powell c Munro b Russell 31(15) [4s-2 6s-3]

Amir to Powell, FOUR, that is a really good shot! Amir tried the yorker but offered a low full toss, interestingly Powell decided to get inside the line and play the glance and beat short fine leg to the right
18.2
W
Amir to Shaqkere Parris, out Bowled!! The perfect revenge from Amir. Nails the leg stump yorker, almost one, and he roars after winning this contest. Parris tried to slog hard, missed the ball and the leg stump was ignited. Shaqkere Parris b Amir 7(3) [6s-1]
18.1
6
Amir to Shaqkere Parris, SIX, and now Parris joins the fun! Short of a length delivery outside off stump, Parris reaches out and slaps it straight. Had to fetch it slightly and he timed it so sweetly, another biggie deep into the stands

Ali Khan to Powell, SIX, back to bowl into the wicket and Powell is back depositing the ball deep into the stands, this time over wide long-on. Short of a length angling away, Powell stands tall and shows no mercy on the ball
17.3
6
Ali Khan to Powell, SIX, that is a monster hit over mid-wicket. Short of a length and sitting up, Powell rocks back and left nothing in the tank as he played the pull shot. 6 4 6 with three balls to go

Ali Khan to Powell, FOUR, smacked! Full and wide of off stump, Powell plays the cover drive really hard and it rockets for four
17.1
6
Ali Khan to Powell, SIX, full toss and that will help him get going. Not above the waist so he will escape the no ball, Powell waits and smacks it over square leg
16.4
W
Russell to Rutherford, out Caught by Hales!! He goes high, he goes super high, that's into the orbit but it doesn't have the distance. Hales ran to the left from deep mid-wicket, settled under it a couple of yards inside the rope and took it neatly. Brilliantly judged catch that. Russell came over the wicket for this short of length delivery, Rutherford tried the pull, got under it too much and hit it straight up. Rutherford c Hales b Russell 45(22) [4s-3 6s-4]

Russell to Rutherford, FOUR, looks like the plan was to bowl the yorker, but he's missed it by a yard or so but Rutherford used the depth of the crease to absolutely muscle a delightful cover drive for four. Deep cover had zero chance
16.1
6
Russell to Rutherford, SIX, that is the third time Rutherford has played the lofted drive and cleared the ropes. Full and angling in, absolute slot, Rutherford plays a high blow shot and holds the pose. Stunning power and great placement to clear the deep cover fielder
14.5
W
Amir to Kadeem Alleyne, out Caught by Keacy Carty!! Now Kadeem Alleyne tries to go over cover but he's only sliced this high. Fullish and outside off stump, Alleyne wanted to break-free after getting stuck, got it on the outer half of the bat and the sweeper ran in a few steps to complete the catch. Kadeem Alleyne c Keacy Carty b Amir 41(37) [4s-3 6s-1]
14.3
6
Amir to Rutherford, SIX, almost a carbon copy of the first ball, just that he hit it towards long-off this time. Amir wanted to nail the yorker but he missed and offered slot, oh that's an easy hit for me says Rutherford and smacks it for a maximum
14.1
6
Amir to Rutherford, SIX, uff! The balance while playing the lofted cover drive, the clean bat flow going all the way and almost touching the bat! What a sight! Full and outside off stump, Rutherford opened up for a thump over the off-side and gee, stunning hit
13.1
Narine to Kadeem Alleyne, 1 run, turning back in, punched off the back foot to long-on
11.3

McKenny Clarke to Rutherford, FOUR, smart! Third man up and he used the pace on the ball to perfection. Tell you what, it was actually a ball around the fourth stump line, but Rutherford spotted third man being called in before this ball and used his smarts to play late and with an angled bat. He's already made a great impact in the 4 balls he has played
11.2
6
McKenny Clarke to Rutherford, SIX, dismissed with power and flat over mid-wicket. Short of a length delivery sitting up, Rutherford camped back and smashed that out of sight

Russell to Rutherford, FOUR, oh he's actually punched the late guide off the back foot. Amazing power despite just a literal push than going hard it. Third man ran to the left, got there with a dive but fumbled as he went one-handed
10.4
W
Russell to Brandon King, out Caught by Pooran!! The anti-climax. King was done in by the wide line. He just wasn't expecting a wide line. Short of a length wide of off stump, oopsy I got to chase this kind of slash from King as he was setting base for a leg-side hit again. Ended up reaching out and a thick edge flew through to the right of Pooran for a comfortable catch. Brandon King c Pooran b Russell 29(23) [4s-2 6s-2]
10.3

Russell to Brandon King, SIX, a lovely swivel pull six on one leg over backward square leg. King is opening up now after getting used to the pace of the pitch. Short a length on the leg stump, King got right behind that ball and powered it all the way
10.1
Russell to Kadeem Alleyne, 1 run, clipped off the back foot through square leg and this is the fifty stand up
6.5
6
Akeal Hosein to Kadeem Alleyne, SIX, shot! Alleyne has got under this and pumped it all the way. Length delivery, no turn on offer, Alleyne uses his long reach to get to the pitch of the ball and lofts it over long-off
6.4
Akeal Hosein to Kadeem Alleyne, 2 runs, 92.1ks quicker and outside off, Alleyne leans forward and drives behind square, couple more
6.2
4
Akeal Hosein to Kadeem Alleyne, FOUR, just past Russell. Shortens the length and gets it to spin sharply, Alleyne is hanging back and he tries to force it into the off-side, gets a thick outside edge and the ball flies to the right of Russell at slip. He was a bit late to react..

Ali Khan to Brandon King, FOUR, that's a good end to the powerplay. Dragged short and it was pace off, 112ks and the ball sits up, King waits and nails the pull in front of square, well wide of the fielder in the deep
5.1
6
Ali Khan to Brandon King, SIX, whoa! That's some hit from King. Not a bad delivery by any stretch - back of a length but the angle is what worked against Ali Khan, ended up right in the swinging arc and King heaves it across the line, sends it sailing over deep square leg and onto the grass banks

Amir to Kadeem Alleyne, FOUR, smashed! This is full and outside off, there was width on offer and Alleyne cashes in, he pumps the drive uppishly over extra cover. Amir shouted "catch" but it was well over the fielder..
3.4
4
Ali Khan to Kadeem Alleyne, FOUR, shot! 136.1ks on a length and outside off, not quite in the driving zone but not to Alleyne, he opens the bat face and creams it square of the wicket. He does not bother to run and just marks his guard once again. Nonchalant!
3.3
W
Ali Khan to de Kock, out Bowled!! Cleaned up! Ali Khan is off on a celebratory run. The Knight Riders have struck early and the dangerous de Kock is gone. Good length ball angled in, de Kock prods forward to defend but leaves a gap between bat and pad for the ball to sneak through, it goes past the inside edge and flattens the middle-stump. He got the length right with his low-arm action as the ball skids off the good length spot. de Kock b Ali Khan 17(15) [4s-1]
2.4
4
Akeal Hosein to Brandon King, FOUR, streaky! Short and spins away, held onto the surface as well, King was committed to the cut shot because of the length but the top-edge balloons over Pollard at slip and races away
1.5
Amir to Brandon King, no run, dropped! Amir is livid with himself. He got both hands but the ball does not stick. Low full toss at the stumps, King drives off the bottom of the bat and hits it straight back at Amir, he reacts quickly and gets his hands up but can't hold on

Akeal Hosein to de Kock, FOUR, de Kock and Barbados are off the mark. A drag down from Hosein, might have been the attempted carrom ball and de Kock pounces, pulls it off the front foot past mid-wicket and beats the fielder in the deep
