00:41Vaitia Laws to put on a show starting with the wicket of Munro. He then got
00:47rid of champion player Kyron Pollard for a golden duck. Make that a triple wicket
00:53maiden as Matthew Tromp also went for north. Hunayn Shah also bowled brilliantly
01:01and sent Alex Hales packing cheaply. The very next ball he yorked Jed Gulli for no
01:06score. But Nicholas Puran was there to play a captain's knock. He made six the

01:28for 12. But his opening partner Kirk McKenzie chipped in with 30.
01:37That's a little bit too full. Didn't middle it. Gulli bowled well and picked up two scalps.
01:43What an elegant shot. Doesn't get enough on it. For the Kingsmen, Casey Carty was also
01:49among the runs with 42. Saim Ayub also had a useful contribution of 24 not out.
02:01Usman Tariq took a wicket himself but TKR's efforts rain veen. This boundary from captain
