Full commentary

10.55am A late assault from Allen and Mir brought Patriots back into the game after they had lost 4 for 6, but TKR debutants Neesham and Hasnain finished off the game for the hosts in Port-of-Spain Neesham is the Man of the Match: "It's a strong start for us, and Polly got us to a par score. I am a changed person now and I love bowling at the death under pressure. It's something I have worked on."

That's all we have for you from this game. This is Deivararayan Muthu signing off on the behalf of Peter Della Penna, Ranjith and Vairavan. Cheers. Be back tomorrow for more thrills and spills
