Pitch Report: 69m to my right and over to my left is 60m and down the ground it's 73m. I like what I see, what a sheen, it's nice and hard. Spinners have dominated at Kensington Oval but if you get it wrong, you are going to travel. It's a bit tacky but by and large, it's a good surface to bat on, reckons Danny Morrison

18:51 Local Time, 22:51 GMT, 04:21 IST:

18:34 Local Time, 22:34 GMT, 04:04 IST: There was some rain earlier and the toss has been delayed due to that.

18:10 Local Time, 22:10 GMT, 03:40 IST: Nothing has gone right for the Patriots ever since they scraped home with a wicket to spare against the Falcons in the season opener. Now with six straight losses they find themselves needing more than a miracle to keep hopes alive this season. Their middle-order isn't exactly strong and it doesn't help with their key top-order batter in Evin Lewis struggling for form. And they are up against the Royals who are topping the charts with four out of five wins. This is going to be a tough hurdle to cross. There is some weather around. Hopefully it isn't game threatening. We'll get you that and more shortly...
