00:00After three defeats, the Royal Desert champions were desperate for a second victory against Jason Holder's Yass Lyons.
00:07And the champions have a number of them in West Indians, Brandon King and skipper Nicholas Puran.
00:12The two provided the crucial partnership totalling 51 runs for the second wicket.

00:19But Puran lashed four sixes before he fell on an 11-ball 26.

00:51And it's gone all the way.
