Commentary

That brings us to the end of our coverage for this encounter. Till the next time, this is myself (Arya Sekhar Chakraborty) signing off also on behalf of my fellow mate and co commentator Pradeep.

South Castries Lions won by 13 runs

Shervon Joseph 57*(27) | Alex Joseph 27*(17)
Xavier Gabriel 1/16(2) | Kenrick James 1/24(2)

Some exceptional hitting in the last three overs wasn’t enough as the South Castries Lions bowlers held their nerves and ended up winning the 27th contest of the St Lucia T 10 Blast by runs. A brisk start was the order of the day for the Leatherbacks but it was nowhere close to what they wanted, chasing 123.

The opening duo played a few impressive shots but couldn’t quite score at the rate which was needed and ended up putting pressure on the batters coming in. The required rate kept climbing at an alarming rate as they kept falling down the barrel and the equation eventually went out of hand.

Shervon Joseph and Alex Joseph batted superbly and played out the remainder of the overs but couldn’t quite get their side over the finish line. Both Josephs batted well, smashing some brilliant shots. Shervon remained unbeaten on 57 off 27 deliveries which included 5 fours and 4 sixes. In the end, the target was way too much and the win will be sweet for the South Castries Lions.

9.6 Gabriel Xavier to Alex Joseph, THAT'S IT! South Castries Lions go over the line and win this game by 13 runs. Pace off, back of a length on the fourth stump, Alex could only pick up a single.

9.5 Gabriel Xavier to Alex Joseph, SIX! Going through the motions now. Low full toss on the stumps, Alex swings and POWERS it all the way over deep mid-wicket fence for a maximum that.

9.4 Gabriel Xavier to Alex Joseph, another slower one, length delivery and wide of off-stump. Alex too early to heave and misses, through to the keeper.

9.3 Gabriel Xavier to Shervon Joseph, OH! Clever change of pace, back of a length on the off-stump. Shervon too early to sweep and misses, pings him on the shoulder.

9.2 Gabriel Xavier to Shervon Joseph, short again, but slightly down the leg-side. Shervon goes to pull but doesn't get hold of it, falls safely at deep backward square-leg for a couple.

9.1 Gabriel Xavier to Shervon Joseph, SIX! BANG! Is that the first of the many to come in the over? Short on the middle and off, Shervon SMOKES that one with a pull over deep square-leg fence for a maximum.

The equation looks very steep here. 28 more needed off the final over but we have seen strange things happening in the game of cricket and you can't just rule them out of the game yet.

8.6 Shervon Leo to Alex Joseph, short delivery on the fourth stump, Alex goes to pull it again, top edged it down to third-man for a couple.

8.5 Shervon Leo to Alex Joseph, short delivery on the fourth stump, Alex swivels to pull but gets big on him and he misses, through to the keeper

8.4 Shervon Leo to Alex Joseph, SIX! BAM! It's all too little too late this for Leatherbacks. Length delivery on the stumps, Alex CLOBBERED it way over long-on fielder's head for a maximum.

8.3 Shervon Leo to Alex Joseph, change of pace, back of a length on the fourth stump. Alex has a wild swipe across the line and misses, through to the keeper.

8.2 Shervon Leo to Alex Joseph, length delivery on the off-stump, Alex drilled it down to long-off for another couple.

8.1 Shervon Leo to Alex Joseph, DROPPED! Length delivery on the off-stump, Alex has skied it down to long-off, fielder comes running forward and dives full length, but spills it as they come back for a brace.

This was the sort of an over which the Leatherbacks were in desperate need of. 24 coming off that and as they say, cometh the hour, cometh the man, Shervon Joseph is showing his class here and have somehow kept his team in the hunt. Can he do a repeat dose in the penultimate over?

7.6 Kyle Adonis to Shervon Joseph, SIX! Make that three in a row, Shervon is going ballistics here. Length delivery on the stums, sits on one knee and Shervon SMOKES it over long-on fence for another maximum.
