Leinster 30 Ospreys 29 (78′)
Ospreys try: Shane Williams
Leinster 30 Ospreys 31 (79′)
Ospreys conversion: Dan Biggar
Penalty to the Ospreys – that could be that. Leinster bit just too hard at the breakdown there, their bench is distraught. Big moment for young Baldwin to find his jumper now.
End of over 6 (15 runs) Kolkata Knight Riders 56/1 (135 runs required from 14 overs, RR: 9.33, RRR: 9.64)
Chennai Super Kings 190/3 (20/20 ov)
Kolkata Knight Riders 56/1 (6.0/20 ov)
Fotuali’i pleaded with the referee to tell him the time – it was up – but Poite refused. Leinster have it and here they come!
Ospreys pip Leinster to the PRO12 crown with a 31-30 victory at the RDS in Dublin. Superb entertainment.
The Ospreys hang on! Turnover at the death greeted with boos by the home crowd, but what drama at the RDS. Leinster have again failed to add domestic honours to European success, but the story, as ever, belongs to Shane Williams. Two tries from the retiring winger cut through the controversy for a famous win. What a game.

ESPNscrum:
Leinster will feel so hard done by, they were the better side for large parts of the game but just couldn’t hammer the final nail. The scrum was a mess, but some of the rugby was very easy on the eye. Thanks for joining us, commiserations to the Leinster fans among you and congratulations to the Ospreys supporters! Shane Williams out on a high once again. See you next time.

Hilfenhaus to Kallis, OUT
JH Kallis c Jadeja b Hilfenhaus 69 (49b 7×4 1×6) SR: 140.81
Hilfenhaus to Kallis, OUT, just got still tougher, probably even out of reach now, Hilfenhaus gets Kallis, he had to go for it, he had to go for the boundary, but he sliced a high full toss straight to sweeper cover, they check for the no-ball but bowler is alright, just about, full toss comfortably below waist height as well, a disappointed Kallis has to go

Hilfenhaus to Shakib Al Hasan, FOUR, Shakib Al Hasan, you beauty, he gets the scoop over short fine leg away, again a full toss, Shakib was ready this time
18.6
Hilfenhaus to Shakib Al Hasan, (no ball) 2 runs, Vijay celebrates after taking the catch running across from midwicket, but no-ball has been signalled, the full toss was above waist height this time, Shakib managed a top-edge, they have run two as well amid all the confusion
