Pooran doing all the talking in the team huddle.
Romario Shepherd: Bit difficult, it's a bit slow. Whenever the bowler bowled into the wicket, the ball was coming out a bit slow, so a bit difficult to time. All in all, we have a good total on the board and we have the bowlers to defend it. There's a big side, we have to utilise that big side some more. I did enjoy my two sixes. We have to bowl well to defend it because they have a good batting line-up
20:08 Local Time, 16:08 GMT, 21:38 IST: This is a decent score for MI Emirates on a pitch which has been two-paced at times, the slower ones and the cutters have been difficult to score off, pace on the ball and there's runs on offer. A lot of starts right through the batting line-up, but only Pollard's 36 was a standout innings. The bowling was decent, but the last two overs could spell trouble for the Vipers as 34 came off it. Will there be any dew in the second half of this match? Will the ball come nicely onto the bat under the lights? Back shortly for the chase..
