Jamaica Tallawahs 38/1 (3.5)

Match delayed by rain, which has come at an ideal time for TKR as Gayle was just starting to open up.

 

[Muhammad10]

Russell taking youngster Anderson Phillip to the cleaners.

Rain spoiling the party

 

[Muhammad10]

Rain spoiling the party

Very irritating for Tallawahs. First it interrupted Gayle's onslaught and now it's halted Russell's blitz.

 

[aloo paratha]

Match starts back up in 2 minutes.

 

[dauntless]

Russell is playing one hack of a knock hitting sixes out of park for fun

 

[Suleiman]

Andre friggin Russell

Brings up his first 100.

Dont even follow CPL, tuned in to watch Umar open, but man this guy is insane. Gun LOI specialist.

 

[aloo paratha]

100 in 43 balls for Russell

 

[Belawal2014]

Tuned in to watch Akmal bat only to see him get out yet again in a brainless manner. Some things never change.

 

[Suleiman]

Oh my God... what is wrong with this guy Umar Akmal

Got THE chance he needed. In THE position he should play in, throws it away by running like an idiot between the wickets, no dive, doesn't even bother with the bat.

This guy is still such an amateur after all this time.

 

[Suleiman]

Tuned in to watch Akmal bat only to see him get out yet again in a brainless manner. Some things never change.

Exact same situation bro. This was as anti-climatic as Sami Aslam getting run out. Good start with a six, then gone.

 

[aloo paratha]

Wicket maiden from Imad... Brilliant!

 

[SL_Fan]

Dre Russ wow!

 

[#GreenRoars]

Woow, Russ played a blinder today.

 

[anuk]

Poor running by amla. He should've known that akmal was the team's only hope to chase this total down

 

[dauntless]

That was perfect situation for umar but he drowned himself disappointing effort by him should have stretched his bat

 

[street cricketer]

Wait what's the local time there?

How the heck is the match still going on?

 

[street cricketer]

40 required from 12 balls.

Amla and B'Mac at the crease and Amla going Chris Gayle atm [MENTION=139190]Adijazz1706[/MENTION] [MENTION=135839]Smbhayi[/MENTION]

Thanks for the mention, I had no idea this was going on. Amla goes and so do TKR hopes imo.

 

[street cricketer]

Internet tells me that the local time there is around 3 AM.

Am I missing something?

 

[#GreenRoars]

How the heck is the match still going on?

Rain, rain and rain. They wanted the result, so they didnt care about time. And resumed the match after rain

 

[#GreenRoars]

Final will be between : Amazon v Tallawahs at 7th Aug, 2016.
