19.6Russell to A Rashid1
One run. Andre Russell to Adil Rashid. Reverse Swing-In full toss, outside off stump on the front foot pushing, to cover for 1 run. Sharjah Warriorz hold their nerve, as they scamper a single off the final ball after James Rew anchored the closing stages in fine style. After losing early wickets, the innings was steadied by Tom Kohler-Cadmore and Sikandar Raza, before Rew played the defining role, displaying composure and clean striking to finish unbeaten on 42. Defending a below-par total, disciplined bowling spells from Sunil Narine and Jason Holder kept the Knight Riders' hopes alive, but they ultimately didn't have enough runs on the board and fell to a sixth defeat in nine, now level on points with the Warriorz who remain bottom despite the victory, but are still in play-off contention. Adil Rashid is the Player of the Match.
