edged to the keeper. Short of a length, makes no effort to get behind it as he pulls and gets an edge off the bottom end of the bat
Tallawahs vs Stars, 17th Match at Gros Islet, Aug 25 2018 - Match Result
11.37pm Tallawahs would be lying if they said they didn't feel the heat just for a brief while, during that Simmons-Pollard partnership. But it's been snuffed out pretty effectively in the end. That's how fickle this format can be. One big over or two quick wickets are all it takes for a game to turn on its head. As with the batsmen, the bowlers produced a collective effort to make this win happen. So that means Tallawahs pick up two more points to go top of the table. That's a good position to be in at this stage of the tournament. For his power-packed 64, Rovman Powell is Man of the Match. That's all we have from here then. Join us again tomorrow, but until then, thanks for your time.
Craig: "Some very strange things from the Tallawahs. Powell who was underutilized as a bowler all CPL now bowls 4 overs while Russell who has underutilized himself with the bat now underutilize himself with the ball by bowling only 3 overs when he has been the most economical on the night."
slower full ball that gets past leg stump as he swings and misses
short of length, doesn't middle the pull to backward square leg
drills a fuller one straight back and Simmons is backing up looking for a run. The bowler runs back and takes out the stumps
ample bottom-hand power but it doesn't amount to anything if you can't find the boundary. Hit straight to long-off
short of a length, swings and misses. The keeper throws at the stumps and the ball deflects away allowing Simmons to get back on strike
shortish, advances and swats it to deep midwicket. Zampa sprints to his left and gets his left hand down but can't flick it back
short ball, can't connect with the pull
tries to force a pull - he had to, at this stage - and gets a top-edge as he's tucked up and Russell settles underneath it
very full, carved away to deep cover
lots of bottom-handed power as he shovels this fuller one but finds long-on
slower short ball, swings early and misses. The dots add up at this stage
Sixteen needed off each of the last two.
that's mighty! Is that the biggest hit of the night? Too full and on the pads, a gift wrap when a batsman is in such striking form, shovelled with loads of bottom-handed power way over cow corner
good bowling, a yorker that's squeezed away to mid-off
too full on the pads, Simmons backs away quickly enough before carving it over long-off
advances down the ground and drills it straight back
down the leg side
full, clipped off the pads to deep midwicket
very full, clipped to deep square leg
pulls out of it after seeing the width on that but not called a wide as he had anticipated
