Cameron: "Umm... explain red card?! What did Cornwall? Will he bat?" Here you go, Cameron. So according to the new rules in CPL and WCPL, if the bowling team doesn't start the 18th over in time, one additional fielder enters the 30-yard circle with four allowed outside. If they miss the time limit at the start of the 19th over, one more fielder must enter the circle, leaving three in the outfield. And if they don't start the final over on time, one player must go off the field and they can have just two players outside the circle. Royals incurred all three penalties, which saw Cornwall going off in the final over. He will bat.

Tim: "When a red card is introduced, who decides who is the player that should go?" The captain of the team on which the penalty is being incurred.

11.45am Right then, let's catch our breaths shall we. Barbados Royals staged a comeback in the back-end there, picking four wickets in the last two balls but this is a formidable total by Amazon Warriors. The surface hasn't been the easiest to bat, and the chase will be interesting. For Warriors, it was Saim Ayub and Shai Hope who struck fifties. Carlos Brathwaite shone brightly for Royals picking 4 for 27, but the fielding let them down. There were multiple drops and misfields. Can Royals chase down 182? We'll find out in a bit.

Holder to Imran Tahir, 4 runs, Fuller-length ball outside off, drives to the right of mid-off, and that is an absolute comedy of errors with the end result - the batters run four! So here's what happened. Tahir drives to the right of McCoy who runs behind it and puts in a dive but for some reason releases the ball late. The batters take three all this while. When the throw does come in, it is way wide and the batters have completed four by then. Holder is besides himself. No one should go anywhere close to him. He is absolutely livid. Amazon Warriors get to 181 for 9.

Imran Tahir in at No.11

Holder to Paul, OUT, The leg stumps goes for a walk and isn't Holder absolutely ecstatic. Warriors have lost five wickets in the last ten balls. Nails the yorker on leg, Paul can't get his bat down in time and sees his leg stump uprooted.
