Kings vs Royals, 2nd Match at Gros Islet, CPL 2023, Aug 17 2023 - Ball by Ball Commentary

Hits a length ball straight to long-on and Sikandar Raza takes a simple diving catch but you got to feel for Young who deserved a half-century. Props to him for reducing the defeat margin and not succumbing meekly - this innings should give him plenty of confidence and will certainly serve him well in the tournament

Length ball just outside off, clonked away to long-off who runs across to intercept the ball

Clatters it over long-off for a high and handsome six. What a shot. It's a slow pitch so it takes some doing to hit that over the rope. Only two away from his half-century!

Clears deep midwicket! Keeps his back leg firmly planted inside the crease and then leathers it away for a six. Clean hitting

Skips down the track and defends it back to the bowler, nicely done, followed him up as he wandered down the leg side

Dropped short outside off, gives himself room and forces it away into the acreage at deep midwicket

Dug in short on the stumps, tries to clobber that and swings for the hills but is nowhere near the line. Another well-directed bumper

Banged in short and curling away outside, presents full face of the bat and punches it down towards short cover

Shimmies across his stumps and glances this away off his pads to deep fine leg

High-full toss on middle, whisked away to square leg's left, a touch late into that shot

Hurls down a throat ball on middle, he ducks and gets his bonce away from the line of the ball

Slow full bunger outside off, punched to mid-off

Round the wicket, angling into the pads, biffed out aerially and it lands a few meters short of the man at midwicket region

Loopy delivery on middle, tucked away off the pads towards midwicket and jogs through a run

Flighted delivery on a length with a hint of spin outside off, doesn't elect to play

That's a mighty long six! Puts on the dancing shoes and lumps him for a massive six over long-on. That left a dent.

Tossed up on middle, goes back in his crease and defends

Shimmies down the track and ends up checking his shot back to the bowler

Tossed up from round the wicket, fuller on middle and leg, squirted off the pads to the on side

Dragged short just outside off, patted to cover-point for a run
