- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR9.3 Keen on going down, tries to lift it up and over long-off but hasn't found the requisite timing, hit him high on the bat and he found the outer half of the bat, nowhere near the middle and he has to go, massive breakthrough, man in form departs 90/31.3 Continues to cash in on his red-hot-form! Hits a shorter length and angled in, lulling him into a false sense of security before nipping it away slightly, he pokes at it tentatively and gets a feather edge to the keeper, among the wickets again, smart operator! 7/15.5 That's exactly what the doctor prescribed for Saint Lucia! Q de Kock holes out to deep midwicket, greets the incoming skiddy delivery on middle with a slog sweep but it doesn't have enough air miles on it, provided a brisk start but was keen on carrying on, disappointed with himself as he moves back after shaking his head in dismay 63/217.4 Gone up in the air, and taken by Asalanka, got a very safe pair of hands, Schalkwyk gets his second, shorter on the line off, wanted to clobber it leg-side and got a top-edge, taken at short third region or thereabouts, good learning knock for Clarke 170/517.2 Landed fuller and skidded on at tight off-stump line, tries to scythe it over deep cover and doesn't clear the fence but he has played well for his side, 61 off 31, crucial innings as they needed someone to play a quickfire knock and he did exactly that 169/4Extras6 (lb 2, w 4)TOTAL177/5 (18 Overs, RR: 9.83)Fall of wickets: 1-7 (Zachary Carter, 1.3 ov), 2-63 (Quinton de Kock, 5.5 ov), 3-90 (Brandon King, 9.3 ov), 4-169 (Sherfane Rutherford, 17.2 ov), 5-170 (Rivaldo Clarke, 17.4 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR4.2 Simmonds done really well running back towards vacant square leg region and pouches the catch comfortably down his throat, Mujeeb does what he does best, provided breakthrough. Angling into middle, goes down ans tries to pull it over backward square 41/15.6 Motie has the last laugh, genuine wicket-taker, that was needless, he got the six he was looking for but he fancied going hard and missed the quick sharp in-drifter at middle and leg, it bounced steeply as well, Chase wanted to club it leg-side and played down the wrong line, Motie goes airborne and punches the air in delight 59/213.5 Wrecks his stumps, exposes his stumps and allows the tiger to roar, he gives room and he uses that to his advantage, hits a fullish length and it curves away very late, he wanted to swat it inside-out and got beaten by the late turn and drift 128/47.4 chance for a run-out, hurtled to batter's end, make it in time, a near yorker on middle, carved to cover. Andrew needs some medical attention, down on his back, might have got a cramp or strained his legs as he had to really sprint in hard to complete this run, the big stretch has done something to his right thigh. Unfortunately, the young man is not feeling okay to continue, he is walking off and his mom in the aisles looks worried 65/212.4 Doesn't have the distance, low on his knee for a slog sweep and gobbled by Rutherford at deep midwicket! Much-needed wicket for Tridents; this could help stem the run-flow. Ball was dipping and curling at him, went hard but not into the gap 120/315.4 Tempts him with a wide low full-toss, shanks it in the air and Green takes a regulation catch at deep extra cover, will be a very relieved captain 134/516.3 And his ebullience only last five balls, over the wicket, pace-off shorter ball at middle, goes for a pull but not quite nailed it, Motie holds onto a wonderful catch, just couldn't generate enough power, just needed a few more newtons on it 147/617.5 Edged and taken! On a length and curling across off, throws her bat at at it and gets an edge to the keeper 164/7Extras5 (lb 2, w 3)TOTAL168/7 (18 Overs, RR: 9.33)Did not bat: K CampbellFall of wickets: 1-41 (Johann Jeremiah, 4.2 ov), 2-59 (Roston Chase, 5.6 ov), 2-65* (Jewel Andrew, retired not out ), 3-120 (Charith Asalanka, 12.4 ov), 4-128 (Ackeem Auguste, 13.5 ov), 5-134 (Shadley van Schalkwyk, 15.4 ov), 6-147 (Amari Goodridge, 16.3 ov), 7-164 (Joshua Bishop, 17.5 ov)
