END OF OVER:

  • Dushmantha Chameera4-0-32-1

Adam Hose's brilliant charge towards the end propel Vipers to 169/6. Capitals might feel they lost a bit of control in the death overs. After a few sluggish overs, Vipers went ballistic in the powerplay and raced to fifty. Then, Capitals stemmed the run-flow, and the middle-order crumbled. Alex Hales got three chances and he raced to 49, while Rohan Mustafa stamped his authority with a quickfire fifty. Sikandar Raza found his radar early on and only conceded 28 in his spell with one wicket. Akif Raja was economical too. All in all, it was a good bowling performance. They have a fighting total to defend with a strong bowling attack. I'll be back shortly for the chase.

Holder to Hose, SIX, Full just outside off, he was ready for the full ball and he gets exactly that! He has clubbed it over long on and Vipers finish on 169/6.

Chameera to Hose, SIX, Thumps it many a mile over long-on! Sits deep in his crease and jauntily heaves him for a humongous six, slow full ball picked early and given a brutal treatment

Chameera to Hose, no run, Good response from Chammera! Rams the yorker outside off, tries to whisk it away through the off side, third umpire is going to take a look if he edges it to the keeper, checking a bump ball. Off the bat and into the ground says third ump and that is enough evidence to move on. NOT OUT on the big screen
18.4

Chameera to Hose, SIX, Good length just outside off with no real movement, he shimmies across and gets down low to it, plays a staggering pull over deep fine leg in the top-tier, Tom Moody liked it. That is a stunning shot!

Chameera to Hose, 2 runs, Shelled a dolly! Hits a length on middle, leg-cutter, sends it miles in the air into the nightsky and Jason Holder drops an absolute soda at first slip, brushed him fingers and he puts down a simple one

Mani Babar: "Keep in mind that the Vipers bowling attack is very strong, so even 140-150 is defendable with Amir, Shaheen, Hasaranga. This is a pretty important game for the Vipers as this could take them up to 3rd spot on the table. If i'm correct, Dubai doesn't have the best NRR"

DaWolf: "A bit early to call time on Munro's career. He was actually decent the first couple of games of the BBL including a 99 off 61 in the first game. But yeah he's struggled in this series."
