- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR4.1 now this is something inventive! Length ball on sixth stump, Charles skies a heave over the bowler, Powell charges to his left from mid-on and dives for the chance, it pops out of his hands but Brathwaite from mid-off was tracking over as well and is in perfect position to claim the catch off the rebound. Not your traditional relay catch but effective nonetheless. 35/33.1 Too ambitious for Hope! He's played this heave over midwicket to this back of a length on fourth stump, but he goes for the same shot to a ball on middle stump that skids on and pays the price for it as he misses and the stumps are knocked back. 32/13.5 short on fourth stump, Mayers tries to get aggressive early and heave this over the leg side, but not the wisest option with long-on and deep midwicket the two fielders on the rope in the Powerplay. Green at long-on charges in 15 yards to his left and lunges forward to claim a superb catch. 34/26.6 half-volley on sixth stump, Holder dips his back leg reaching out to drive and it means he gets underneath the ball a bit rather than playing along the turf. Bullet flies to Brooks at extra cover on the ring and he doesn't have to move to intercept a chest height chance. 51/412.2 Green worth his weight in gold for his catching alone! Powell wins the cat and mouse battle as Tallawahs stick to the plan bowling around the stumps to Azam frustrating him on the awkward angle. It pays off as he is teased into driving at a full ball slanted on sixth stump, shovels it in the air toward Green at long-off who charges forward 15 yards and dives forward to claim a shoestring catch. 10/10 on the effort to cover the ground and hold onto it with his elbows banging into the turf on the landing for the dive. 82/5Extras16 (b 1, lb 1, nb 1, w 13)TOTAL161/5 (20 Overs, RR: 8.05)Fall of wickets: 1-32 (Shai Hope, 3.1 ov), 2-34 (Kyle Mayers, 3.5 ov), 3-35 (Johnson Charles, 4.1 ov), 4-51 (Jason Holder, 6.6 ov), 5-82 (Azam Khan, 12.2 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR1.5 too easy for Thisara Perera at mid-on! back of a length on fourth stump that Walton tries to flick calypso style over square leg but instead it climbs off a top-edge and flutters to Thisara on the ring for a simple chest height catch. 7/14.1 full and wide on seventh stump, goes to drive without any footwork and skies a drive swirling high over backward point. Walsh Jr isn't going to spill a skier after the sharp take he held onto earlier and waits for it to come down into his mitts with palms facing away from his face to claim this at head height. 22/32.4 sharp work at backward point by Hayden Walsh Jr! Short and wide, cuts this firmly trying to keep it down but Walsh Jr is one of the best fielders in the world and crouches low with a slight lunge forward to pluck this in front of his shins. 14/25.2 Walsh Jr making a case for Player of the Match on his fielding alone! Good length ball on off, Brooks tries to tip and run to backward point. Must have forgotten who is patrolling there as Walsh Jr sprints in and launches his body forward while he underhand flicks into the stumps from five yards out to catch Powell short charging from the non-striker's end. 33/419.2 half-volley again on fourth stump, this time no fortune for Brooks as he tries to heave this to Nevis and instead feathers an edge through to Hope. 144/814.2 overpitched wide outside off to encourage a drive, but Brathwaite skies this drive off the toe toward Phillips coming in off the cover sweeper rope. This time around Phillips has his sunglasses on instead of on top of his cap, and he sees it all the way in safely at waist height claiming it 20 yards inside the rope. 99/514.5 the plan finally pays off! full and wide and a carbon copy to the Brathwaite dismissal, trying to heave this over leg side and instead skies it off the toe. It swirls to Walsh Jr on the point/third man sweeper rope for his fourth dismissal in this innings. 103/616.5 full outside off, another skied drive this time swirls over the ring and Amir calls off everyone to take a swirler into his chest. 123/719.4 another slower length ball skied over long-off. This time no fumbles from Mayers coming in off the rope as he settles under this 10 yards in from the boundary to pouch it at head height. 145/9Extras15 (lb 2, nb 1, w 12)TOTAL146/9 (20 Overs, RR: 7.3)Fall of wickets: 1-7 (Chadwick Walton, 1.5 ov), 2-14 (Haider Ali, 2.4 ov), 3-22 (Kennar Lewis, 4.1 ov), 4-33 (Rovman Powell, 5.2 ov), 5-99 (Carlos Brathwaite, 14.2 ov), 6-103 (Andre Russell, 14.5 ov), 7-123 (Migael Pretorius, 16.5 ov), 8-144 (Shamarh Brooks, 19.2 ov), 9-145 (Chris Green, 19.4 ov)
