The win keeps the series alive and forces game seven in a do-or-die match to determine the championship team. The Knights won the game using the Duckworth-Lewis-Stern (DLS) methodof play. This method is a mathematical formulation designed to calculate the target score (runs needed to win) for the team batting second in a limited-overs cricket match interrupted by weather or othercircumstances. Due to rain and lighting, the umpire decided to call the game. At the time of the call, the Knights had scored 88 runs in 10.1 over with a fall offive wickets. On calculating the DLS, the revised winning score required was 71 runs, giving the Knights the win. Batting first the Gladiators had scored 121 runs in 20 overs with Samir Patel being the top-scorer with 48, and Weylin Kapp 21, Marlon Robinson 11 with Lenroy Whorms 9, and Muhammad Jamal contributing 12.   For the Knights Tabish Taufiq was the leading wicket-taker with two wicketsin hand.  Rick Ramchand, Suresh Sudhakaran and Vikas Vig followed by a wicket each.
