Full commentary
11:20pm That will be all from us for tonight. A bit of a damp squib at the end (quite literally), especially given the contest was simmering beautifully. de Kock's knock set it up for the Royals and Primus' 14-ball over, considering the margin of victory in the end, also proved pivotal and detrimental from a Falcons POV. We hope you enjoyed our coverage. We will be back tomorrow with more CPL action and would love your company again. Until then, this is goodbye from Shashwat, Sudeep and Vairavan. Take care, folks!
11:16pm It is official, folks. No further play will be possible because, well, it is absolutely hammering down. The Barbados Royals have won by 10 runs (DLS method) and make it three wins out of three.
As we wait for the rain to clear, here is a nice, little quiz put together by Sreshth Shah and Yash Jha, and this should keep you engrossed.
10:53pm The rain has returned and it looks heavier than before. The players are going off again... The Royals are 10 runs ahead on DLS at this stage. And it is absolutely bucketing down now. The crowd are running for shelter and this could be a longer delay than the previous one.

Amir to Miller, 1 run
back of a length just outside off. Miller opens his bat face and runs it down to short third
10:47pm The players are making their way onto the field. To reiterate, the Royals need 53 off 36. Andrew has the gloves, as opposed to Billings. Amir to bowl - here we go again!
10:39pm Good news, folks. The covers are coming off now, hinting that we may not be very far away from a restart.
10:23pm The rain continues to play hide and seek. The covers had come off momentarily but the rain has returned, meaning that the covers have made an appearance too.
"Re Primus' mega-over, I think you were expressing the feelings of many of us when you accidentally typed, 'Still two overs left in this over.'" -- Have a feeling a lot of us weren't very far off the mark, David...
10:11pm Uh-oh, the umpires have had enough of the rain and they have asked the ground staff to bring on the covers. The players are walking off too and there is not a lot of breeze around, which may not be a good thing. For what it is worth, the Royals are currently well ahead of the DLS par score - 12 runs to be precise. So, if the match does not resume, they will pick up their third win on the trot.

James to Powell, SIX runs
oh my days - what an effort that is! Fullish outside off. Powell plants his front foot and pummels it towards long off. Green leaps up into the air, catches it while hanging in the air and then tries to push it back into play. However, his left foot just landed beyond the ropes while he was still in contact of the ball and despite that magical effort, the Falcons concede six!

James to Miller, 1 run
short on leg stump. Miller hops back and pulls it towards short fine leg. He will feel he missed out there. Imad might have injured his hamstring fielding that too
James back for his second. The Falcons are also behind the over-rate, as things stand

Primus to Miller, FOUR runs
and the over finally comes to an end, capped off by an unacceptable misfield! Full and wide outside off. Miller does Primus a favour by reaching out to it and knifing it towards short third. Amir, for some reason, moves out of the line and lets in four!

Primus to Miller, (no ball)
oh goodness gracious me - this is unlike anything I have ever seen! Another high full toss bowled a mile outside off. A bit of a No ball check and the No ball has been signaled. Free hit again...

Primus to Miller, 1 wide
another full toss that is definitely beyond the tramlines and perhaps the cut strip too. But it went beyond the cut strip after it passed the popping crease and has been called a wide

Primus to Miller, FOUR runs
thank you very much, says David Miller! Slot ball outside off. Miller plants his front foot and bangs it over mid off. Up and running!
