PLAYER OF THE MATCH
Shakib Al Hasan

All 3 Falcons' wins have come at home, and they would hope to take that momentum into the away games in a bid to remain in the top half of the table. As for the injury-marred Patriots, they got just 2 wins from 6 games. Much like their opponents today, they are done with their home games and will be eager to turn things around. That is that from this game then. Up next will be Saint Lucia Kings vs Barbados Royals. Remember, the Royals are the only side that are yet to get off the mark. Plenty at stake for both sides. Do remember to join us for that one in a few hours' time. Until then, sayonara from the trio of Raju Peethala, Abhinav Guha and Venkatesh Av.

Imad Wasim: Fantastic effort by our players, everyone chipped in and Shakib is very professional. Whenever I call him, he delivers. What we want is to gain momentum in the later part of the tournament. We have to adapt as quickly as we can in the away games. Huge thanks to the home crowd for coming out and supporting us. Hopefully we will do well this year.

Jason Holder: Not enough runs on the board, it was a tough wicket to start on. We got few niggles in the back and it is all about managing them and trying to get the best out of the team. We just got to play better cricket, we haven't been at our best yet, just scraped through a couple of wins, but yet to put our best foot forward.

Shakib Al Hasan | Player of the Match: (On taking 500 T20 wickets and scoring 500 CPL runs) It feels great when you contribute for your team, especially when the team is winning, it gives you confidence. Important stage of the tournament coming up, hopefully we can keep the momentum going. (On his advice to youngsters) Cricket is changing everyday, it’s lot faster than what it used to be ten years back, so they need to keep improving their skills and mindset. That’s normally my role in the team, happy to contribute today, hopefully few more to come.

14:40 local, 18:40 GMT, 00:10 IST: The Falcons finish off their home leg with a win. They were battered and bruised in the last game, but won an important toss today to record a comprehensive win. At the halfway mark, Shakib noted that having wickets for the last 10 overs would be key for his side and Falcons put up a professional show with the bat. A very good powerplay (considering the slowness of the surface), respecting the spinners and finding timely maximums against pacers to keep the required rate in check. At no stage did they look under pressure and in fairness, the game was pretty much done and dusted when they restricted the Patriots to a well-below par total. Stick around for the post-match reactions...

Holder to Karima Gore, FOUR, juicy full toss and the fielder at mid-on palms it away to the ropes. He leapt full length to his left, got both hands but no dice!

18.6

Navian Bidaisee to Karima Gore, leg byes, 1 run, and they have managed to get the call in their favour! The review attempt was to overturn the wide signal and they got what they wanted... Gore wanted to flick, but got no bat on that...

The Patriots review for lbw. This looks like an attempt to reverse the wide signal. It was spinning down leg and Gore defleced it to short fine off the thigh pad. The umpire signalled a wide straightaway which is what forced Holder to opt for a review. Ball tracker in and that was missing leg stump by a mile.
