Tahir’s introduction in the seventh over proved decisive. A double-wicket maiden accounted for Shakib Al Hasan and captain Imad Wasim, triggering a slide from 77 for 3 to 116 for 8 as the veteran’s variations proved unplayable.

Earlier, Shai Hope and Shimron Hetmyer had powered the Warriors’ innings with a 106-run stand off just 44 balls. Hope struck 82 off 54, accelerating after a steady start, while Hetmyer blazed 65 from 26 deliveries, including five sixes and five fours.
Rain delayed play for nearly an hour, but the Warriors stormed back, with Shepherd adding a late unbeaten 25 from eight balls. They plundered 145 runs in the last nine overs, including 41 from the final two.
The result lifts the Warriors to second place with two wins from two matches, while the Falcons remain on top of the table despite suffering their second defeat in five games.

The Falcons have talent, no doubt, but they need more discipline in the middle overs. You can’t win CPL games losing five wickets in a hurry like that.
