It was a night to forget for R Mustafa as apart from this embarrassing incident, he also had another disappointment in the match. Warriors needed 2 runs from the last ball to win the game. Overton nailed his low full-toss and R Powell could only push it to the deep-mid wicket. Mustafa failed to collect and throw the ball and instead fumbled. This allowed Warriors to sneak in the second run and complete the win.
