Having beaten the Warriors, hopes were high for T&T to make the last four, however a win for the New South Wales Blues over the Chennai Super Kings in the day's second game saw Trinidad and Tobago also crash out of the tournament.

Half-centuries from Owais Shah and Dane Vilas were the only contributions of note to the Cobras' 137 for four but they looked on course for victory when they reduced the Caribbean side to 105 for seven in the 18th over.

But Kevon Cooper, who hit an agricultural 28 from 10 balls in a low-scoring 12-run win over the Chennai Super Kings last time out, smashed 25 from 11 to see them over the line.

Cobras opener Richard Levi, who has been added to South Africa's Twenty20 squad to face Australia later this month, and Herschelle Gibbs fell cheaply but Shah and wicketkeeper Vilas combined for 87 in 11.1 overs.

Vilas reached a 40-ball half-century with seven fours but top-edged spinner Sunil Narine to cover four balls, and four runs, later. Shah pressed on to 63 not out, from 50 balls and featuring six fours and a six, with no other batsman reaching double figures.

Dale Steyn strangled T&T in the early stages of their innings, his first three overs yielding figures of one for three, and Justin Kemp picked up three for 22 including top scorer Darren Bravo (29).

Denesh Ramdin's brisk 24 kept them in the game but it was Cooper who delivered the crucial blows, hitting sixes off Robin Peterson and Steyn - whose final over went for 15 - and a four off Charl Langeveldt in the last over for a win
