3.2  Palani Amarnath to Michael Klinger, Good ball, he goes for the cut, it's too close to cut, he's inside edged it, and it misses the stumps by a whisker! The keeper tidies up and there is no run. Phew that was close.   (0)

Trinidad & Tobago sailed to a very formidable total, courtesy of a bludgeoning from William Perkins' bat. He scored 80 off just 54 deliveries with 11 fours and a six, and almost carried his bat through the innings. Dwayne Bravo backed up his fifty from the last game, with another one today. These two were the force driving Trinidad & Tobago to the big score they eventually achieved, after Kieron Pollard's 14-ball 32, which was like the cherry on top.

0.2  Mervyn Dillon to Peter Ingram, Good ball, he goes for the cut, it's too close to cut, he's inside edged it, and it misses the stumps by a whisker! The keeper tidies up and there is no run. Phew that was close.   (0) 
0.3  Mervyn Dillon to Peter Ingram, Nice yorker! The batsmen gets a thin inside edge and the ball flies past the legstump and the keeper. Fine leg fields to keep it down to two.  (2) 
0.4  Mervyn Dillon to Peter Ingram, Oh that was a dolly of a catch, and the fielder makes no mistake. Back to the nets for the batsman.

Eastern Aces showed great fight against the Kent Spitfires, reaching a very competitive total of 164/7 in their full quota. Now, they would want the bowlers to back it up.

Lasith Malinga, the star of Kent Spitfires' last game was very expensive in this game. Going for 41 runs in his 4.0 overs, he still managed to bag 3 scalps to his name.

KENT SPITFIRES' INNINGS
Code:
0.1  Nelson Odhiambo to Joe Denly, Good short ball, the batsman is caught off guard and top edges it high in the air! The keeper is after it...he's runs hard...and the ball lands just after him! He drops a glove and hurls the ball in to keep the batsman to just a single.  (1) 
0.2  Nelson Odhiambo to Rob Key, Pah, that was a useless shot! I've seen better batters in my fridge! No run.  (0) 
0.3  Nelson Odhiambo to Rob Key, Splendid shot for four!  (4) 
0.4  Nelson Odhiambo to Rob Key, The batsman calls for a single, but hesitates and nearly gets his partner run out! An effort that would make Owais Shah proud! No run.  (0) 
0.5  Nelson Odhiambo to Rob Key, He's hit that high and hard...the fielder is coming underneath it...will he catch it? NOOOO! He spills the chance! And to add insult to injury, the ball rolls away for four runs. The bowler is fuming!  (4) 
0.6  Nelson Odhiambo to Rob Key, Full, almost yorker-length delivery outside offstump. Th batsman drives it hard and square of the wicket. Two more.  (2)

1.3  Elijah Otieno to Joe Denly, Perfect yorker on the leg stump.  (0) 
1.4  Elijah Otieno to Joe Denly, Good ball, he goes for the cut, it's too close to cut, he's inside edged it, and it misses the stumps by a whisker! The keeper tidies up and there is no run. Phew that was close.   (0) 
1.5  Elijah Otieno to Joe Denly, The batsman looks surprised that that ball wasn't called a wide. The bowler's grinning as he makes his way back to his mark.  (0)

2.3  Nelson Odhiambo to Joe Denly, Good running, two runs.  (2) 
2.4  Nelson Odhiambo to Joe Denly, Flicked off his hips through the vacant square leg region for two runs. The captain decides to remove a man from gully to cover up that spot.  (2)

12.5  Lameck Onyango to Joe Denly, Good ball, he goes for the cut, it's too close to cut, he's inside edged it, and it misses the stumps by a whisker! The keeper tidies up and there is no run. Phew that was close.   (0) 
12.6  Lameck Onyango to Joe Denly, EDGED AND TAKE...DROPPED! The keeper drops it! A simple chance and he fluffs it! Single.  (1)

After the fight shown by Eastern Aces' batsmen, it looked like this was going to be a tough game for the Kent Spitfires. But, their top-order had other ideas. A callous display of batting from their top-3 batsmen, and Joe Denly in particular, left the Eastern Aces heartbroken and knocked-out from the Champions League.

Code:
Eastern Aces     164/7 in 20.0 overs. 
Kent Spitfires   165/4 in 18.2 overs. 

Kent Spitfires won by 6 wickets (with 10 balls remaining)

Man of the match: Joe Denly (Kent Spitfires)

We failed miserably. It was too much to chase. Need to make some changes in the next match !

We were playing well. Just if Griggs had played at a strike rate of over 100, we wpuld have reached the other side.

A good effort by the Stags to get so close to beating the world's first great T20 side. But I'm glad they didn't.
