Milestone
That's all for the coverage of this game, do join us for the 14th match of the CPL, sharp at 4 am tomorrow. Until then, it's a ta-ta and a goodbye from me, Anurag Dasgupta and my co-commentator, Arjun Bhalla..
Roston Chase (stepping in for skipper Faf du Plessis)
" I was happy with my performance, I felt like I was hitting the ball well on a difficult surface, and we didn't even talk during the break, but the guys really came out all guns blazing, so credit must go to the bowlers for the effort and the spinners came in to finish it off."

Nicholas Pooran | Warriors skipper:
"I was happy about restricting them, but the bowling perforamnce was not upto the mark after 2 wickets in the first over, and we gave too many free hits. In and after the powerplay the other team bowled really well, and credit to them. We have been inconsistent in ticking boxes and we need to get it all together at the same time."

Roston Chase | Man of the Match:
"I was just seeing the ball, hitting the ball and it paid off. (Favourite shot) Cover drive, I am always known for playing the cover drive, played one in T20 cricket, a classical shot like that."

The pitch was on the slower side, but there were hardly any demons in it. And a target of 150 shouldn't have been too difficult to chase, but some tight bowling from the Kings and some lazy looking shot from the Warriors batters resulted in this thumping win for du Plessis's side.
Chasing a modest total of 150, Kings were jolted with four early breakthroughs and they eventually never recovered from it. Skipper Pooran played a lone hand and scored a brisk 26-ball 41, but once he perished, the Warriors fell like a pack of cards.
In the end, the Kings were bundled out for 98 and fell well short of the designated target. Jeavor Royal was the pick of the bowlers, scalping 3 wickets for just 19 runs and he was the chief destroyer upfront.
Hang round, presentation ceremony coming up in a while.

That's it, the match has ended and the Saint Lucia Kings have comprehensively won this match by 51 runs. It was a thorough professional performance from the Kings who were simply outstanding with the ball in hand.
16.5 K Williams to I Tahir
W BOWLED HIM. Tahir could not last two balls. Kings nail a massive win over Guyana Amazon Warriors by 51 runs. Terrific slower one at length. Tahir goes for the sweep, but plays it too early and misses as it goes through to rattle the stump. The Warriors get ALLOUT for 98.. this should be a pleasing victory for Faf du Plessis and his Kings.
16.4 K Williams to O Smith
1 Length delivery on the off-stump. Smith looks to hoick but doesn't connect. He hits it down to long-on for a single.
16.3 K Williams to O Smith
0 Slower on the off. Smith looks to heave it but inside edges to the keeper.
16.2 K Williams to O Smith
0 And again, rolls his fingers on the ball. Slower and wider. Another wild swing and another miss from Smith..
16.1 K Williams to O Smith
0 Slower and wider of off stump. Smith goes for a big slog on the off side and fails to get a bat on it..

15.3 O McCoy to O Smith
0 Fuller and slower, outside the off. Smith goes for a swipe across the line and gets beaten by the slowness on that delivery..
15.2 O McCoy to O Smith
6 SIX! Hammered wide of long on! This was slow... actually very slow. A fraction short as Smith waits for the ball and BOOM, he clobbers it into the wide long on fence...

0 A well directed bumper on the stumps. Smith goes for an attempted pull shot, but in the end pulls away from the line of the ball..
