END OF OVER:
20 | 5 Runs 2 Wkts | PWI: 133/9 (131 runs required, RR: 6.65)

  • Ashok Dinda1 (1b)
  • Mithun Manhas11 (13b)
  • Chris Gayle1-0-5-2
  • RP Singh4-0-20-1

So Warriors failed to match Gayle's score, let alone the target. Very one-sided game. The talk will be all about Gayle for days to come. RCB now go on the road for six away games. Their home record is intact.

Looks like they aren't showing the presentation as they have cut the coverage to DD v Kings XI. Punjab have decided to bowl. I will take leave here. Thanks for your company. Enjoy the rest of the evening. Cheers!

Cricket simpleton: "The impact of the Windies players' in all these T20 leagues is immense. In a way they contribute to the huge success of those leagues among the public with their fun and talent. But somehow their own T20 tournament has never been appealing to watch. The WI board should seriously do something to bring back that mojo atleast in this upcoming CPL."
