Heartbreaking defeat that, seems we can't even win T20's anymore.
What a player Gayle is though

To paraphrase dear old Larry you can't win T20 Finals day from bottom of the group stage.

That was a great game tonight and a shame to lose on the last ball.
10-20 runs light on our innings though. After a great start from Ryder and 103 off 10 overs we should have been close to 200.

Great to see a full house but carry on like this & we won't get any more, we blew it after a great start & fell away after Jesse was out, Westley batted very well but too much was asked of him, we should have got 210/220 to have had a chance & 176 was never going to be enough.
Bowling was not up to it generally although we did fight back well, we needed to get Gayle out early, even when he mistimed some of his shots there was enough power to get boundaries, he was awesome at times & fully deserved his standing ovation when out.
We must be realistic - we have blown it already. One other thing can the Announcer please stop stating the blindingly obvious at times, also try saying a bit less - you don't need to say so much & you don't need to start nattering etc at 5.30pm for a 7pm start!!
