1.5 to H Masakadza, and West Indies draw the first blood! Short length delivery on the middle and off. Masakadza moves across and looks to pull it away. All he gets is a top edge to Sammy at backward point. 6/1 7.6 to T Maruma, and Rampaul ends Maruma's misery! Maruma fends at a short delivery pitched on the off stump as he just manages to edge it to first slip where Gayle pouches the catch. 12/2
Dwayne Bravo	10	1	38	1	3.80	42	4	0	3	0
46.1 to P Utseya, on the middle stump. Utseya looks to loft it away but does not get enough bat as he can't clear Pollard at mid-on, who takes the catch comfortably. 147/9
Daren Sammy	10	3	33	3	3.30	41	3	0	1	0
13.3 to BRM Taylor, and there is the third wicket! Taylor looks to drive a good length delivery and leaves a wide gap between the bat and the pad as the ball sneaks in and hits the timber. 24/3 13.6 to T Taibu, there is the fourth! On the middle stump and rises a touch as Taibu is done in by the bounce and gets an outside edge back to the keeper. 24/4 15.4 to V Sibanda, Sibanda is gone! Length delivery on the middle stump as Sibanda comes down the track and half-pulls it straight down the throat of Barath at deep square-leg. 25/5
Sulieman Benn	10	0	26	1	2.60	37	0	0	0	0
40.1 to GA Lamb, on the good length. Lamb looks to sweep it away and gets a top edge to short fine-leg, where the catch is taken. 120/7
Kieron Pollard	5	0	22	1	4.40	20	3	0	1	0
25.1 to E Chigumbura, and gets a wicket with the first ball. Bowls a short ball outside off. Chigumbara looks to cut it away but slices it straight into the hands of Sammy at backward point. 63/6

4.1 to AB Barath, fuller delivery outside the off stump and Barath looking to drive, seems to have got an edge onto the pad, a loud appeal from the bowler and Taibu before he caught the ball, was he caught or was it lbw, well it is confirmed now, that was infact an lbw.. 20/1
Ray Price	7	0	32	1	4.57	25	3	0	2	0

Greg Lamb	5	1	20	1	4.00	22	0	2	0	0
16.3 to DM Bravo, deceives him in flight, nicely flighted delivery outside the off stump and Bravo misses the drive and Taibu collects the ball and breaks the stumps and Bravo could not get his foot back in time, he is stumped.. 96/3
Prosper Utseya	7	0	41	2	5.85	24	4	1	0	0
15.2 to CH Gayle, makes room and plays inside-out high in the air and down the ground to long off and Taylor judges it well and takes the catch and he was back peddling, was quick to realize that he was nearing the ropes.. 96/2 19.2 to DJ Bravo, spins down the leg side and Bravo looking to turn it away, misses it and Taibu collects the ball and whips off the bails, Bravo is well out and he cannot get in. The fans are stunned by this display of batting. Terrible mistakes.. 104/5
Graeme Cremer	3	0	17	1	5.66	10	1	1	0	0
18.6 to N Deonarine, tossed up delivery and Deonarine dances down the track and mishits the ball high in the air to long on and Chigumbura takes a simple catch. A terrible shot.. 104/4
