So, that is it from myself, Arjun Bhalla and my co-commentators, Akshay Bhide. Do stay tuned to OneCricket and Cricket Exchange for a lot more matches.
Sherfane Rutherford | Man of the Match: An emotional moment (receiving hug from the opponents). I had a point to prove. Thanks to my team as well to give me the confidence to play with freedom. After last year, I went back to the drawing room after. It was always hard work. I gave it my all, with hard work there's always reward. Coming into this team there was this opportunity to bat early. I want to show that I am a batsman. It's good for me how it's going along. (On Dwayne Bravo) He's a cool guys, there's a lot of support for me. He gave more confidence to execute. I am someone who prays a lot, I make it my duty to pray a lot, without God nothing is possible.
Sherfane Rutherford gets the Man of the Match.

In the 18th over of the first innings, Paul van Meekeren picked up momentum for St Kitts & Nevis, by breaking a 100-run partnership and removing both Hetmyer and Hafeez. 


St Kitts & Nevis Patriots never lost that momentum, as they kept on spanking the Warriors through the second innings. It all started with an inspiring opening-stand of 69 runs between Lewis and Thomas. The team from Guyana do pull things in their favour for a bit. Tahir removed Lewis and Thomas in successive overs, and Odean Smith took Asif Ali cheaply. 


However, Skip DJ Bravo and Rutherford again became the protagonists of a well-designed partnership. The duo who stitched 105-runs in the season opener, pulled off another masterclass partnership when needed the most. Here they sewed 77 runs between them. The captain lost his way in the penultimate over, as holed Naveen out at long-off.

However, it was some artificial excitement as Rutherford bashed two massive sixes in that over, before Allen smashed the match winning boundary. In the end, the side from St Kitts & Nevis finished the chase of 167 runs with four balls remaining to make it three in three.

19.2 O Smith to F Allen
4  FOUR!!! That's it. Take a bow, Patriots. What an emphatic win this is from Bravo's men. They win with four balls to spare. Coming to the final ball, it was a well-directed short delivery from Smith, Allen looks to pull it into the leg side but ends up getting a top edge over the keeper for a boundary.  With this win, the Patriots stay at the top of the table. 
19.1 O Smith to S Rutherford
1 Short ball at the body, Rutherford is hurried by the pace as he manages to work it in the square leg region for only a single.

18.6 Naveen-ul-Haq to S Rutherford
1 Naveen nails the yorker this time as Rutherford opens his bat face to push it towards the sweeper in the off side for a single. Keeps the strike for the last over. Patriots require 4 runs from 6 balls.
18.5 Naveen-ul-Haq to S Rutherford
6 WOWW!!!! What a strike this is. That should seal the game for the Patriots. On a length outside off, Rutherford clears his front leg and lifts it over long off fence for a biggie.
18.4 Naveen-ul-Haq to S Rutherford
6 SIXXX!!!! Fifty up for Rutherford and gets to the milestone in style. Slower short ball on the stumps, Rutherford waits for it and pulls it over square leg fence for a maximum.
18.4 Naveen-ul-Haq to S Rutherford
WD Slanting down leg as Rutherford misses the flick. Wide signaled.

18.3 Naveen-ul-Haq to D Bravo
W In the air and taken. Naveen picks the big wicket of DJ Bravo. Bowls it on a length outside off, Bravo looks to clear long off but doesn't get it off the middle of the bat as Pooran inside the ropes takes a simple catch. 
18.2 Naveen-ul-Haq to S Rutherford
1 In the slot on the stumps, Rutherford slogs at it and gets an inside edge on his pads. The ball rolls on the pitch and the batsmen steal a single. 
18.1 Naveen-ul-Haq to S Rutherford
0 Naveen strays on the pads as Rutherford misses the flick and it brushes his pads on its way to the keeper. A loud appeal for a caught behind but nothing from the umpire.
