Toronto Nationals vs Vancouver Knights, 1st Match, Round 1 - Live Cricket Score, Commentary

Phehlukwayo to Pollard, SIX, two in two for KP! A low full toss outside off, Pollard goes down on his knee and lofts it over long-off to clear the boundary

Phehlukwayo to Pollard, SIX, short of a length around off, tad slower too but with Pollard's power it's always going to clear the fence. Camps back and thumps it over long-on

Phehlukwayo to Pollard, FOUR, short and punished! Pollard waits for it to arrive and hammers it over mid-wicket, that's raced away to the fence at the speed of light

Ali Khan to Pollard, SIX, right in the slot around off, Pollard stands tall and smokes it over long-off for an 85-metre maximum

Ali Khan to Klaasen, out Caught by A Russell!! Dre Russ takes a sitter at short fine leg to bring an end to Klaasen's blitz. The South African went hard against the short ball and top-edged it to the man inside the ring, got beaten due to the lack of pace on that occasion. Klaasen c A Russell b Ali Khan 41(20) [4s-2 6s-4]

Smit to Klaasen, SIX, low full toss around off, Klaasen walks down the wicket and tonks it right over the bowler's head, impeccable timing

Cheema to Klaasen, FOUR, short of a length around off, Klaasen has slogged it into the gap at mid-wicket, 16 runs off the over

Cheema to Klaasen, SIX, amazing shot! Klaasen goes down on his knee and picks this one up over deep mid-wicket for a towering six, new ball please

Cheema to Pollard, FOUR, off the mark with a boundary! On a length outside off and it's been chipped over covers by Pollard with a lot of power, nice shot to play first up

Cheema to Yuvraj, out Stumped!! That wasn't out but Yuvraj Singh has already walked off the park. The keeper failed to take the catch as the batsman got an outside edge, but the ball deflected on to his stumps. Yuvraj's backfoot was inside the crease when the bails were dislodged but the southpaw thinks he's had enough and decides to walk off. Was really struggling to time the ball. Probably a blessing in disguise for the batting team. Yuvraj st Tobias Visee b Cheema 14(27)

Ali Khan to Klaasen, FOUR, lovely shot boy! Klaasen camps back in his crease and slaps the short ball over covers, got into a flamingo position and nailed it

Smit to Klaasen, SIX, that's more like it, this is what the crowd have come to see. Klaasen gets into position quickly, reads the length delivery and deposits into the stands at mid-wicket with a powerful blow

Rippon to Klaasen, SIX, moves towards the off-stump, gets hold of the loopy delivery and thumps it right over the bowler's head, couldn't have hit it any straighter

Rippon to Yuvraj, no run, dropped! Yuvraj gets a life as Gayle puts one down at slip. The left hander had got a regulation nick as he poked this one outside off but Gayle bestows his generosity on Yuvi, was a touch slow to get down, you see

Rippon to Rodrigo Thomas, out Caught by Cheema!! Thomas' handy cameo comes to an end. A straighter delivery around off, touch fuller in length and Rodrigo Thomas miscues it towards long-off as he goes hard at it. No timing whatsoever, and it's an easy catch for Cheema in the deep. The wickets continue to tumble as the spinners continue to weave their magic. Rodrigo Thomas c Cheema b Rippon 41(31) [4s-3 6s-3]

Rippon to Rodrigo Thomas, FOUR, dragdown from Rippon and Rodrigo Thomas has smashed that off the back foot for a one-bounce four over mid-wicket. Sheer power...

Gayle to Rodrigo Thomas, SIX, downtown! The Universe Boss gets a taste of his own medicine as Thomas tonks this off-break over long-on, looks impressed, does Gayle

Zafar to MacLeod, out Caught by Phehlukwayo!! MacLeod's struggle comes to an end. He did manage to get the odd boundaries but never looked settled out in the middle. Zafar attempts an arm ball and the batsman gets a leading edge towards short third man as he attempts a wild slog, playing down a completely wrong line. The wicket looks slightly two paced, hence the batsmen are not able to time the ball that well. MacLeod c Phehlukwayo b Zafar 17(23) [4s-2]

Rippon to Rodrigo Thomas, SIX, stand and deliver! A tossed up delivery that's been pitched up by Rippon, Rodrigo Thomas gets hold of it and sends it over long-on for a towering six, the cleanest strike of the day without a doubt

Rippon to MacLeod, FOUR, swept away! Right into the slot around off, MacLeod gets down on his knee and sweeps it through mid-wicket for another scintillating boundary

Smit to MacLeod, FOUR, heaved away! Touch fuller around off and it's been whipped through the gap at mid-wicket by MacLeod, belligerent boundary by the Scottish batsman

Smit to Rodrigo Thomas, SIX, nonchalantly done! On the pads and Rodrigo Thomas flicks it over the deep mid-wicket fence for a sweet six, dropped in the stands by one of the spectators

Ali Khan to Rodrigo Thomas, FOUR, edged, dropped and it's a boundary! Rodrigo Thomas gets a regulation outside edge on his drive and the keeper spills it out, parrying it away to the fence eventually. Riding his luck is the southpaw

Phehlukwayo to Brendon McCullum, out Caught by van der Dussen!! Phehlukwayo draws first blood. After conceding a boundary he comes back in the best possible way and gets the batsman out. Hurries him up with a short ball and the batsman was in no position to play his pull shot, horribly miscuing it towards van der Dussen at short mid-wicket. Brendon McCullum c van der Dussen b Phehlukwayo 4(5) [4s-1]

Phehlukwayo to Brendon McCullum, FOUR, puts on his dancing shoes and slams this length delivery through covers, off the mark with a scintillating shot is McCullum

Ali Khan to Rodrigo Thomas, FOUR, edged but safe! A good delivery by Ali Khan, bowls this one around a good length and the ball nips back in to kiss the batsman's inside edge and race past the stumps, four towards the fine leg fence
