Tridents coach Phil Simmons at the innings break: "We had a couple of good overs at the end so kept them to 150, which we'll take. [Shakib] is a great addition to the squad and good to have him here. Hopefully he'll do with the bat what he did with the ball. Gurney makes a difference everytime."

9.35 pm: A middling total for Patriots in the end, with Tridents needing 150 for victory. Patriots will have to deal with the dew also when defending. Brooks was outstanding, his shot-making a stark contrast to most of the top order, who struggled to get a move on. Allen was probably left to come in too late, and though he did smack a few, you wonder if Patriots would have got more if he had come in earlier. The bowlers meanwhile, were superb. Shakib landed straight into the action and came up trumps, while Gurney showed once again why he's such a valuable T20 bowler. Join us shortly for the chase, with PDP back in the saddle to start things off.

Gurney to Allen, OUT, and he ends it by going straight through the batsman to rearrange the stumps. Length ball dug into the pitch and coming in a touch, Allen was looking to send it over deep midwicket but misses - and Gurney doesn't.

Gurney to Allen, no run, good length, normal pace and defeats Allen's attempted punch to go through to the keeper

round the wicket

19.1
0
Gurney to Allen, no run, back of the hand slower ball well wide of off stump, and Allen who was backing away, tries to reach the ball to try and power this through the offside but doesn't connect. The bowler thinks he's nicked it and he and the keeper are appealing for a caught behind. Allen thinks it should be a wide. The umpires go upstairs, with the soft signal not out. And that's the right soft signal because Allen was nowhere near it. But that was well outside the tram-line and it should have been called a wide at least. Will go down as a dot ball

Final over. What can Allen do? Or what can Gurney do?

Reifer to Cottoy, FOUR, moves across and whacks this straight past the bowler and into the boundary. Didn't time it as well but got enough meat on it for the ball to beat long on and long off. The bowler was trying for the yorker, ends up bowling a full toss

Reifer to Allen, SIX, stunning Allen is in some form. He's standing with a slightly open stance, and the bowler bowls a full one on off, he just stays still and smashes it flat over extra cover. So much power that it carries all the way

CJ: "These two teams sum up a real issue with West Indian cricket currently. They are missing a reliable batsmen to bat through the innings and a genuine all rounder - West Indies have genuine number 8 batsmen batting at 6 and 7"
