8:48 AM IST, 11:18 PM Local Time: So, rain has the ultimate say in the game. The DLS method came into play and it is the home team Barbados Royals who win the game by 10 runs under the DLS method. They remain unbeaten in the tournament and stays in second place. The Falcons will think of what might have been.

Let's recap you as to what happened today at Barbados. The Falcons were put into bat first by the Royals and got off to a solid start courtesy of their openers Brandon King and Justin Greaves. King scored 27 off 19 balls while Greaves remained unbeaten on 61* off 52 balls and carried his bat. Sam Billings looked good for his 56 off 43 balls. The innings fell away towards the end a bit. Shamar Springer with his 10* off 3 balls took the score to 176/5 in 20 overs. 11 extras given by the fielding side.

A couple of wickets apiece for Jason Holder and Naveen Ul Haq. A wicket for Keshav Maharaj who bowled well giving away only 19 runs in 4 overs. Maheesh Theekshana went wicketless but gave away only 29 runs in his 4 overs.

Chasing a target of 176 for the win, the Royals lost Rahkeem Cornwall early. Quinton de Kock looked really good for his 48 off 30 balls while Alick Athanaze looked assured for his 34 off 29 balls before being run out. Rovman Powell was batting on 15* off 11 balls while David Miller was batting on 19* off 13 balls when weather intervened. 11 extras given by the fielding side as the Royals were 127/3 in 14.3 overs 10 runs ahead of the DLS par score.

A wicket apiece for Chris Green and Roshon Primus who gave away 23 runs in his only over that never ended. Loads of wides and no balls in that. The rest of the bowlers remained wicketless.

So, Barbados Royals make it 3 wins out of 3 with this 10-run win under the DLS method and stays in second place.
