Man of the match: Kevin Curran

Flash Kings looked certain to win the match while CK Nayudu and Adam Gilchrist were at the wicket but both lost their wickets and the tail soon collapsed as ROTW clinched a thrilling 20-run victory.

Kevin Curran was solid with the bat and effective with the ball as well.​
