Semi-final win over Jamaica wrapped up with five overs to spare. Narine, Hosein and Bravo all with an economy rate of four or under. Eleven wins out of eleven.

Cornwall went early but Fletcher and Deyal are murdering the TKR bowlers ;_;
74-1 off eight overs.

Zouks all out for 154, which could be worse for TKR, i guess. Given how they breezed through Guyana, i'd still fancy St Lucia.
― Scampo di tutti i Scampi (ShariVari), Thursday, 10 September 2020 15:48 (three years ago) link

Until Zahir’s over I still thought the Zouks would do it. Kuggeleijn going for 16 in his last over was unexpected.
It was a terrific performance by TKR, after the first ten Zouks overs. Simmons and Bravo running through the Zouks’ dances as they hit six after six was rubbing it in a bit.

Absolute scenes. 36 needed off the last over, Powell hits three sixes in a row, the last of which was probably over waist height but not given as a no-ball, Delhi go bananas, look like they’re going to take the batsmen off, send a guy from the bench over to argue with the umpire, etc, they end up losing by 15.
