00:00Hello everyone, good morning here from St Kitts and Nevis. This is Warner Park on a, well,
00:06super Sunday and all, but just the odd little bit of rain cloud around and it's forecast to
00:11keep on blowing in and out. This is match 11 of the Republic Bank CPL and the Patriots lock horns.
00:20Yep, there's a little bit of something there, maybe with the breeze as well. Turn again,
00:27bounce. Now, what does that come off? Oh dear, he's really had a torrid time out in the middle,
00:40has Fletcher, today and through most of the games here at Warner Park. That's lovely,
00:47from Meyers, square of the wicket, seizing an opportunity. Goes full again and pays the price.
00:57He has been in such good... Sounded pretty good. In front of square. Follows it up with a boundary
01:12through the offside. He follows it up with a boundary through the offside. That's what makes
01:21his field. Again, cries of catch and it goes straight to the captain. It was a drop chance with...
01:30Been very probing in this over, Kofi James. Lane has been tagged and gone. Oh, oh, it's hit clean
01:42enough. Into the wind, doesn't matter. Really well connected. This is the value of... Given and Samba
01:59involved. Goes leg side anyway. Down on one knee, finds a gap. So they've just taken the fielder
02:06from... Oh, he's striked. He loves to play off the front foot. Been very good from Mika
02:18Lui in the last couple of overs, the way he's balanced defense and aggression.
02:29They're trying to be aggressive. He's been very conservative in this
02:32innings, Riley Rousseau, but Fabian Allen yet again in the wickets. Into the offside. There's
02:38the lane again. Now look at it. Once again. Oh, as he nicked it, he has. Can't kick on, can't do anything
02:48of damage. They have just bluffed him. But he does get it well enough. This has been a really important
02:55knock from... Swatted. Very good from Mika Lui, who continues to enjoy Warner Park, his home ground.
03:08Gone again, and it will be six more. This is turning into the Mika Lui show.
03:16Amazingly, he's been, he was...
03:19Huge. Three sixes in the 19th over. It's a second half century for Mika Lui, who gets another...
03:31Again down the ground. This time shorter in length, but he's just good enough to get it in that area.
03:36That is a...
03:40That one was there. With all his tricks. Has he got it? Oh, you better believe it.
03:48Republic Bank, fat one.
03:54Hasn't got this one at all, but it is swirling. Wazim...
03:58Gets it on the second attempt. 53 for seven.
04:04Will be a wicket to end, so double strike.
04:09For the Falcons, but it crucially...
04:12Here, it's the Patriots taking on the Falcons. Second meeting between these two teams this season.
04:20Falcons coming off a win against TKR in Antigua. Brandon King...
04:31Well, what a way to start the Republic Bank CPL for Brandon King, with a maximum.
04:37So, no surprises.
04:42Came down the trap. There was long off in play, so had to really get it over.
04:50Look at the use of the feet. That is just gorgeous from Brandon King.
04:57Missed everyone and everything. Welcome runs for the Falcons to end the second.
05:07Hasn't quite nailed it from Justin Graves, but... Oh, no.
05:14There was a fielder there. Oh, no. He's overrun it. That will not help. You don't have...
05:21Down the track again. This has been a masterclass on a challenging surface from Brandon King,
05:27but this time...
05:31Four more. They're racing away at the...
05:37That is gorgeous. Justin Graves has been very good. A revelation at the top of the order in
05:42these three matches. Bit of extra... Picked up in front of square. The boundaries don't stop flowing.
05:55Came across his stumps. Yes, given. Norkia fights back.
06:00Now, their aggressive option. No deep point with a deep third. So, four for James.
06:07Oh, put down. That is a massive disaster for...
06:15Hello, hello, hello. Yeah, and more. It's just too easy there. If it links, slightly too full.
06:24Hasaranga into the attack.
06:26Hasaranga into the attack and strikes second ball. An Eldorado celebration.
06:38Top edge. He's gone for the sweep. Ned is underneath it,
06:42and he's got it. Steadied himself nicely, Ashmeet Ned, and that could be...
06:48Taken and a spin again to Joel Andrew. That works. And Hasaranga with his
06:56wily skill. Has another wicket to his name.
07:02That could be good too. It is good. Here's one into Hasaranga. The hero of St Kitts for a day.
07:09Out on field, remember? Yeah, and he just has to clip. Has...
07:21Taken. How this game has turned on its head. And here come the Patriots.
07:27And just for...
07:32No, it's away with it. Billings has missed. Billings tries the reverse and he's out.
07:38Rousseau inside the inner ring. Claims the catch and a lovely dance as well from the captain.
07:49Goes on the sweep straight away and belts it for six.
07:56Yeah, you couldn't have asked for a better...
08:03Backing away and straight down the ground. Since the wicket of Billings...
08:09No, it's a batting line that hasn't...
08:13Oh no, you could probably hear the cry because that just is a freebie at the end of the Nova
08:21that now costs him. He'll go for a straight fuller ball. It's Askaya. The substitute smith
08:28is on the field and he grabs it. Good from Nokia.
08:38Out towards the slightly shorter side and now the Falcons are in prime.
08:44Short again. Peppering the same boundary. It'll be four. The scores are now level.
08:54Just looking for one. They will take the run to Odin Smith
08:58and the Antigua and Barbuda Falcons have back-to-back...
