9:49pm: Victory for the Vipers means they have guaranteed themselves a top-two finish. The Capitals, meanwhile, are in need of snookers if they are to break into the latter stages from 5th.

That's all from us. Join us tomorrow for Abu Dhabi Knight Riders against MI Emirates!

2
Tom Curran to Zampa, 2 runs

Down the ground for a couple - runs that only serve to chip Desert Vipers' convincing victory down to 22 runs. The Capitals were never really in it, truth be told. A professional job by the ILT20 leaders.

19.5
1
Tom Curran to Klaassen, 1 run

Another slowie that Klassen gasps as he reaches down to keep it out having read it late

19.4
1
Tom Curran to Zampa, 1 run

Clever... but Zampa's ramp only goes for a single with the man back at fine leg

19.3
4
Tom Curran to Zampa, FOUR runs

Quality shot from Zampa. Too little too late, of course, but a nice bit of timing over extra cover

19.2
4
Tom Curran to Zampa, FOUR runs

Edged past keeper and third who is up in the circle.

1
Wood to Klaassen, 1 run

A bit more on this by Klassen, but not much. Keeps the strike for the finally over as the ball lollipops and plugs into the vacant just beyond the ring at midwicket

18.5
Wood to Klaassen, no run

Klassen's greeted by a short delivery and almost gives it straight back to Wood for a caught-and-bowled

18.4
W
Wood to Powell, OUT

Outstanding - and game, you'd think. Wood puts a little extra on this and shapes it into the right-hander. Trims the top of middle stump

Rovman Powell b Wood 33 (25b 3x4 2x6 43m) SR: 132
18.3
Wood to Powell, no run

Powell's ruing two things there: missing out on a slot delivery and hitting it straight into his standing ankle

18.2
Wood to Powell, no run

Another full-blooded swing... but no dice. Wood pulls his length back and Powell doesn't read it

18.1
6
Wood to Powell, SIX runs

Perfect start... just! Powell has to put everything behind this one to get it just over the sponge at extra cover

1
Atkinson to Powell, 1 run

Full ball on the toes gets Powell the opportunity to find a single into the leg side

17.5
1
Atkinson to Zampa, 1 run

Chipped down the ground for one. Powell now has to get an odd number...

17.4
1
Atkinson to Powell, 1 run

Brilliant recovery from Atkinson, who aims a yorker at the toes. Powell digs it out down to long on

17.3
4
Atkinson to Powell, FOUR runs

Crafty from Powell! It's not all power: Atkinson goes full and the West Indian gets down on one knee to lap him down to fine leg

17.2
6
Atkinson to Powell, SIX runs

Big! Though not totally in control from Powell, who uses his power to swivel-pull over square leg

17.1
4
Atkinson to Powell, FOUR runs

Atkinson returns for his last over... and is smeared to the midwicket fence after dropping short
