10.00 pm Superb bowling effort from the Royals, but an even more exemplary fielding effort spearheaded by Corbin Bosch, whose five catches for an outfielder is a CPL record. Will the defending tournament champs go down for the second night in a row to start the season? Stay with us for the start of the chase shortly to find out.

McCoy to Cottrell, 1 run, OUT, slower length ball pulled through square leg and they complete one easy, Cottrell drops his bat turning back for the second though and Bishop's relay to the striker's end to Thomas is there in plenty of time to deny a second run off the last ball.
SS Cottrell run out 1 (1b 0x4 0x6) SR: 100.00

McCoy to DJ Bravo, OUT, slower ball on a good length on fourth stump, slaps this high toward Bosch at cover sweeper. Bosch is a magnet tonight and tracks 20 yards to his right along the rope before lunging to take this while keeping his body just inside the rope. He throws up a five with his hands to mark his fifth catch of the night, with a smile too. All of them have been fabulous in different ways.
