Qais Ahmad to Fabian Allen, out Caught by Garton!! Finally something works for Qais. He keeps peppering the short of length area and Allen had no other option but to go for it, he is rushed by the pace on the ball and does not time the pull, Garton settles underneath it near deep mid-wicket and takes a well-judged catch. Fabian Allen c Garton b Qais Ahmad 4(3)

Qais Ahmad to Powell, FOUR, this is a bouncer. We have seen Qais doing that to Russell before. But Powell takes it on and the top-edge runs away fine to the boundary rope. He calls for a helmet now..
9.1
6
Qais Ahmad to Powell, SIX, gamble bowling a spinner the last over but Fletcher has taken it. This was fraction short and Powell is quick to pounce, uses the depth of the crease and pulls it over cow corner. Just clears the boundary rope..
8.5
W
Karim Janat to Pooran, out Caught by Andre Fletcher!! Pooran misses out on becoming the first T10 centurion by 11 runs. He walks off to a standing ovation from his team mates in the dug out. It has been a special innings from the Warriors' skipper. Full delivery outside off, Pooran creams the drive uppishly but straight to extra cover, Fletcher lets it pop out of his hand then quickly scoops it up before it coulld touch the ground. Janat has sent back both set batsmen and is currently on a hat-trick. Pooran c Andre Fletcher b Karim Janat 89(26) [4s-3 6s-12]
8.4
W
Karim Janat to Simmons, out Caught by Afif Hossain!! Finally the partnership has been broken. No celebrations from Janat or the Tigers. They are just relieved to see the back of Simmons. This was a short of length delivery that hurried onto the West Indian, he went for the pull but ended up splcing it towards long-off, Afif runs and takes it easily in the end. Simmons c Afif Hossain b Karim Janat 41(22) [4s-3 6s-3]

George Garton to Pooran, FOUR, just short of the boundary rope. But 32 runs off the over. Slower delivery angled across the left hander, Pooran crouches a bit and flat-bats it in front of square, beating deep mid-wicket to his left
7.5
6
George Garton to Pooran, SIX, oh my! I am running out of expletives to call this fabulous innings. This is a length delivery but still needs to be put away, Pooran brings his bottom hand into play to whip it over deep mid-wicket. Are those boundary ropes even big enough?
7.4
6
George Garton to Pooran, SIX, the hundred is definitely on. Garton is not learning his lessons. He keeps bowling short of length and Pooran keeps dispatching it over the boundary rope, this was not as well struck as the previous one but it still managed to clear the rope
7.3
6
George Garton to Pooran, SIX, he's on course for a hundred here. Watch out if that happens! It is already a special innings. Banged into the surface and Pooran is quick to transfer his weight onto the backfoot, nails the pull almost in the car park near deep square leg
7.2
6
George Garton to Pooran, SIX, he's putting on a power-hitting masterclass. The Tigers are just clueless as to where to bowl. This was a good length ball around off-stump, but Pooran plants his leg across and heaves it over deep square leg
7.1
4
George Garton to Pooran, FOUR, sloppy bit of work in the field. This is what happens when the scoring is at a rapid pace. Pooran lifts it over extra cover, Janat moves around from sweeper cover and allows it to escape past his grasp
7
4
Mujeeb to Simmons, FOUR, another costly over for the Tigers. This was a low full toss and though Simmons did not get hold of it cleanly, he got enough wood to clear the fielders at long-on and long-off
6.5
6
Mujeeb to Simmons, SIX, Simmons gets a piece of Mujeeb now. This was fraction short and he was onto it in a flash, quickly rocked back and hammered the pull into the stands near cow corner
6.3
Mujeeb to Pooran, 1 run, low full toss and Pooran drives it back to Mujeeb who fumbles to concede the single
6.2
F
Mujeeb to Pooran, SIX, fifty for Pooran. He raises his bat and acknowledges the applause from his team's dugout. The team management are also happy. He has brought carnage along with him. This was flat-batted towards long-on and the fielder got there, but the momentum didn't allow him to hang on to the catch as the ball bursts through them
5.3
6
Irfan to Pooran, SIX, hat-trick of sixes. Irfan shouted "catch it" but with the short boundary and the wind blowing there was very little chance of this going to hand. Pooran is hurried by the short ball but his miscued pull travels the distance at deep square leg
5.2
6
Irfan to Pooran, SIX, this is hitting of the highest quality. Slower delivery around off, Pooran plants his front foot across and swings across the line, another clean connection and this one almost ends up in the car park near deep square leg
5.1
6
Irfan to Pooran, SIX, ufff! Pooran is putting on a show here. Full and almost cramping him for room, but his bottom hand generates enough power on the straight-batted loft to clear the long-on rope
5
6
Karim Janat to Simmons, SIX, poor bowling. He could have ended the over nicely but gives away the extra and the last ball disappears for six. Full and right in the arc, Simmons swings through the line and targets the short straight boundary to collect another maximum
4.5
4
Karim Janat to Simmons, FOUR, shot! That was not a bad delivery. Just short of yorker length, Simmons makes room and opens the bat face to slice it square on the off-side, no chance for sweeper to get across and stop that

6
Qais Ahmad to Pooran, SIX, third six of the over, fourth for Pooran and he is enjoying himself. Qais once again went for the seam-up but landed it right in the slot, Pooran heaves it high and though mistimed, he had struck it with the wind and hence it clears the boundary rope at deep mid-wicket
3.4
6
Qais Ahmad to Pooran, SIX, third six for Pooran. Quicker, fuller and on leg-stump, Pooran loves it there, he kneels down and gets a clean bat swing on the slog sweep, comfortably clears the deep square leg fence
3.3
6
Qais Ahmad to Pooran, SIX, this guy can take the game away from the opposition quickly. The Tigers need to beware. This was fraction short and Pooran picked the length early, slotted the pull over deep mid-wicket
3.2
4
Qais Ahmad to Pooran, FOUR, edged and four. The wrong 'un and Pooran did not pick it, he just saw the width and threw his bat at that, the outside edge flies away fine and Irfan didn't bother chasing it

6
George Garton to Pooran, SIX, that ruins the over. Garton tries to bounce Pooran out with fine leg inside the ring - bad idea. Pooran hooks and the top-edge sails into the stands near fine leg
2.1
6
George Garton to Simmons, SIX, very small margin for error in this format. This was fraction short and Simmons is onto it in a flash, he has his left leg cleared to have a clean swing and strikes it flat over cow corner
1.5
W
Mujeeb to Waseem Muhammad, out Caught by Adam Hose!! Mujeeb strikes early for the Tigers. Muhammad perishes as he goes searching for his third maximum. This slider was in the slot but it hurried on and that's what foiled Muhammad's heave, hit him low on the bat and ballooned towards long-on, Hose settles under it and takes it comfortably. He was also hitting this into the wind. Waseem Muhammad c Adam Hose b Mujeeb 12(5) [6s-2]
1.2
4
Mujeeb to Simmons, FOUR, that's much better from Simmons. He relies on timing than power. He makes room and crunches the flatter delivery through the packed off-side field. No need to run for that

6
Irfan to Waseem Muhammad, SIX, it's six or nothing so far for Muhammad. Length delivery and it was right in the arc, Muhammad clears his front leg and swings through the line, sends it sailing over the long-on fence

Irfan to Waseem Muhammad, SIX, woah! That's huge from Muhammad. Another short ball and this time he was waiting for it, gets into position quickly and pulls it way back onto the grass banks near deep square leg
