00:00Barbados Royals they'll be taking on the Antigua and Barbuda Falcons. A little

00:06earlier was Danny Morrison out there for that coin toss. Barbados Royals it came

00:12down in their favor and they opted to have a bowl first here on this wonderful

00:16surface at Kensington Oval. A couple chances for the Barbados Royals. Alec

00:21Athanase comes back in. He had a bit of an injury and then some big names as

00:24well David Miller, Keshav Mahadraj and Rivaldo Clark. He's that emerging

00:29player inside there. Antigua and Barbuda Falcons they've gone unchanged on the

00:34back of two wins for them. A little use of the feet and that gets them off the mark the

00:41Falcons. Oh gives himself room and that's going to be the first boundary. Oh that's

00:51lovely. That's the way to get going Justin Graves. Oh this one could find its

00:59way into the boundary as well it does. A productive over. Oh wasn't in control of

01:09that but that too will find its way to the boundary. Goes straight and this

01:15could be number one. Oh my how has he put that down. Oh gets past the man at 45

01:25and into the boundary. The runs are coming for the Falcons. Oh my goodness

01:32gracious me as beautiful as it gets. Well hello Justin Graves. Welcome to the

01:40party my boy. That is an excellent delivery to start. Naveen second over in

01:48the power play and Graves can only smile. It does advance but adapts well. Shorter

01:55length. Naveen saw him coming. He's had a really good start to this year's

01:59Republic by CPL. 50 partnership up. Pace off. There have been a number of inside

02:06edges tonight. Down the track. Both of these batters have used their feet

02:12tonight but now works to the detriment of Brandon King. Republic Bank CPL

02:18welcomes a South African overseas who is decorated. A little bit of turn on that

02:25occasion. Brandon King reckless in his use of his feet and after a good start

02:30once more he has to trudge back to the pavilion.

02:38Runs

02:42Very well played. Great dexterity on show. Skillful very skillful here from Sam

02:48Billings. Oh I enjoyed that shot certainly from Billings. A Republic Bank

02:55maximum. Well that's into the gap. That's going to release some pressure and it

03:03also brings up the 50 for Justin Graves. His second in CPL and what a knock it's

03:09been. Yeah trying some innovation. It's much needed. Have to get on with it the

03:17Falcons. Lovely. Yeah it just does. Good thinking from Sam Billings. This is as

03:27you said Danny. This is what he's known for in T20 cricket. Yeah bravery. This is

03:35an important over three boundaries to start. They'll check the height of that

03:43but it will be another boundary. Four consecutive boundaries in this over and

03:48it brings up a 50 for Sam Billings. First in Republic Bank CPL and 33rd in T20

03:54cricket. This is going straight up. Two guys under it Powell and Cornwall and put

04:02down third drop chance tonight. Yeah not doing themselves any favors the Barbados

04:07Royals 140 for one. Goes through Obed McCoy. The fielding has gone in the wrong

04:14direction for the Barbados Royals tonight. Not a good way to start at home.

04:21Holder has his man and he has another wicket at Kensington Oval. A place he

04:26does so well at an El Dorado celebration for him. He's getting closer to those

04:31three figures. He'll change of pace. It's a bit unlucky for Billings but he's had

04:37his luck so he can head back to the dugout. Back to the dressing room.

04:45Yeah given in the end given. Number 43 for Jason Holder at Kensington Oval. A

04:53place he is addicted to taking wickets at. Nice healthy noisy edge. End of

05:02Fabian Allen. In and out for just one.

05:09Again such a big boundary but it does get into boundary. Finally first boundary in

05:1411 deliveries. There's that wide plan again. Finally Naveen is able to execute.

05:23Tried to hit it a bit hard. Probably thought he had his three wood out on the 17th.

05:28Tee box. Oh yeah it's there. Gets a length and he looks back at the replay.

05:37Picked up. That is a sign of the power that this Falcons side possess. That has

05:47been hit so powerfully but straight to Jason Holder. Now they're trying to go

05:51for it understandably the Falcons but wickets are falling. He again didn't

05:55time this. Another batter. When you think about Green where he went with his. Yeah

05:59just open up that front leg and so you're reaching for it. He said to

06:02stretch for it. More power. That has been hit so cleanly into the big boundary as

06:11well. Barely gets it past the court. Could be a valuable boundary to end the

06:20innings. They get past the 175 mark. The 27 at the top from Brandon King was in

06:27good tempo. Put on a nice partnership with Justin Graves. They got 55 without

06:31loss in the pole play. Then a bit of a slowdown from Graves and Billings. They

06:36only went at seventh in the middle and struggled to keep up that tempo going

06:39into the end. A couple of wickets to hold. He loves this venue as we all

06:43appreciate. Two for Naveen. A little expensive and one for Maharaj with the

06:49wicket takers. Cornwall then had the one over and McCoy. McCoy just had that last

06:54couple of deliveries here and there. He was a bit expensive as well. Didn't get a

06:58wicket tonight. That target 177. The chase is on. Starts Willamere. Oh he goes

07:10up but not far. Easily taken by Primus and the skipper has got a big one. How

07:17often have we seen this from Chris Green in the pole play phase of the innings. So

07:22good at using his angles, his variations and smarts as a bowler with his lengths.

07:29Kim Cornwall just trying to manufacture that stroke down the ground.

07:36Catches the cray but he finds the gap. He finds the first boundary. Oh burst to the

07:44hands. That could have been two down instead. It's a boundary. They needed that.

07:52That's runs. That's the way to close out. Oh he's got a spring in that bat. A catch.

08:02Oh there the stands. It's been dropped but it's a Republic Bank maximum.

08:09That should be four. So much precision. Packed offside field and still good enough to get it in the gap.

08:19Clean. Very clean and very good from Alec Athenez.

08:30Oh just spins past Chris Green. It takes a bounce. Going to that wide plan. Oh this

08:38is trouble gone. Athenez runs into Quinton the court. Billings saw the

08:44opportunity and took it. Good Lord. We're only mentioning this prior to the drinks

08:50break. It's been one of the worst ways to get out for top order players that are

08:54set. Trevor Penny knows it. It was almost a run out prior to the drinks break. Now

09:01it's on because there's been a collision. Not knowing when it's looking. Oh and

09:07Athenez runs straight into the cock and sadly both went that way. Oh the free hit

09:14sails. It sails far. That's what they want the Barbados Royals. Oh catches the

09:23cray and the easiest of dismissals. They see the back of Quinton the cock. It's

09:30Quinton the cock. He's set. He's striking at 160 and it was one of his favorite

09:35areas. Just that lovely little swivel hook or pull shot. He's only managed to get a

09:40bit of glove on this and it balloons up for Billings. I think one of the simplest

09:46ones he'll ever see. Oh Primus please. No ball which means another TCL free hit.

09:55Oh, my goodness me. It's all happening. Boundaries, disappointment and 23 runs in

10:09the over. We've finally reached the end of 12 104 for three. Rules after that.

10:18That's enough. Yes. Oh, whoa. Oh, Chris Green. Oh, my dear. Put that in the

10:28highlight reel. TV replay. Let's have a little look. Quite brilliant if he saved

10:34this because it was going for six. Six foot three. Up, up and away. No, he's just

10:43just over. Good effort though, Greeny. But no cigar, chief. It's a sixer. Oh, they say

10:52E for effort but I give him an A on that occasion. It's a Republic Bank maximum.

10:57But that was brilliant work from Chris Green.

11:05Oh, he's gotten that dealt with appropriately. Badly lined and boundary.

11:14There we go. One, two, four, four, three.

11:24Here come the covers. Oh, that's bad news.

11:29At this moment, Barbados Royals 12 runs ahead on that Duckworth Lewis Parr.

11:34Ladies and gentlemen, we are really sorry to bring you the news here from the Oval. First

11:40game, remember, of four home matches for the Barbados Royals taking on the Falcons.

11:45And we are saddened to bring you the news that the game has been abandoned. So handshakes on.

11:51And that means the Royals who were 10 runs ahead of the Duckworth Lewis Wells, the rain fell.

11:57So they end up winning by 10. Important win.
