Abhishek Tanwar to Rajhamany Srinivasan, out Caught by Karthikeyan!! slower ball, Rajhamany Srinivasan gets down on a knee to swat it away. Fetched it from well outside off and hence didn't middle it. Holes out at wide long-on. Rajhamany Srinivasan c Karthikeyan b Abhishek Tanwar 23(20) [4s-2]

W
Chakravathi to Yo Mahesh, out Bowled!! The googly does the trick. Turned in sharply and Yo Mahesh wanted to hoick it over mid-wicket. Beat the inside edge by a long way and disturbs the stumps. Yo Mahesh b Chakravathi 3(3)

Abhishek Tanwar to R Kavin, out R Kavin Run Out!! 1 run completed. Slower delivery from the back of the hand. Kavin pulls it to deep mid-wicket and the batsmen decide to come back for the second. Karthikeyan runs across to his right swiftly and releases the ball. The throw is good at the keeper's end. Kavin put in the dive, but that's enough. Nilesh Subramanian was quick to whip take off the bails. He is a couple of inches short of the crease. R Kavin run out (Karthikeyan/Nilesh Subramanian) 6(3) [4s-1]

Kiran Akash to Rajkumar, out Caught by J Kousik!! An absolute creamer in the deep! Short ball, Rajkumar walks forward and pulls. Makes decent contact, but not good enough. Kousik at deep mid-wicket runs across to his right and takes a superb diving catch. Rajkumar's cameo is over. Rajkumar c J Kousik b Kiran Akash 20(9) [4s-1 6s-2]

Kiran Akash to Rajkumar, SIX, short ball, Rajkumar saw that coming. Gets into a strong position and pummels the pull over deep mid-wicket

Rahil to Rajhamany Srinivasan, FOUR, hammered down the ground. Rahil Shah bowls a half-volley on the stumps and Srinivasan gets under it to thump it over the bowler's head
14.5

J Kousik to Rajkumar, FOUR, 10 off 2! A leg-stump half-volley and Rajkumar flicks it away behind square leg. The outfield does the rest
14.4
6
J Kousik to Rajkumar, SIX, wow! He gets off the mark with a six. And with an audacious stroke. Was a length ball on the stumps, Rajkumar moved across and scooped it over short fine leg. Has enough wings to clear the ropes
14.2
W
J Kousik to Anirudha, out Caught by Chakravathi!! A knuckle ball well outside off. The length was on the fuller side and Anirudha was early into his drive. He wanted to go downtown, the ball flew off the outside edge. The backward point fielder moves back and gathers it with ease. Anirudha c Chakravathi b J Kousik 48(43) [4s-3 6s-2]
13.5

Rahil to Rajhamany Srinivasan, FOUR, deft! Waits for this ball and opens his bat-face at the last moment to guide it wide of the keeper. Very fine of the man at short third man
12.3
6
J Kousik to Anirudha, SIX, short ball that sits up nicely for Anirudha to stand tall and deposit it over deep mid-wicket. Pulled hard and gets the desired result
11.3
W
Chakravathi to Shajahan, out Bowled!! Beautifully done. Through the gates. It was the leg-break, full in length. Shajahan misses the clip and the ball sneaks through the gap between bat and pad to crash into the stumps. Shajahan b Chakravathi 1(2)

W
J Kousik to Maan Bafna, out Caught by Shijit Chandran!! Mistimes and holes out to long-on. Shortish ball, Maan Bafna moves back and across to heave it over cow cornor. The ball bounced a tad extra and that resulted in the batter losing his timing. The ball lobs up off his top part of the bat and Shijit takes a sitter. Maan Bafna c Shijit Chandran b J Kousik 17(17) [4s-2]
10
Rahil to Maan Bafna, 1 run, put down! Was struck hard by Bafna who drove it hard and uppish. Shah stuck his right hand out, but the ball doesn't stick

Rahil to Anirudha, FOUR, trifle short, Anirudha waits for the ball on the back foot and cuts it hard through point, beating the diving backward point fielder
8.4
4
J Kousik to Maan Bafna, FOUR, top shot. Hit it exactly where he wanted to. With mid-off in, he walked down the pitch. Kousik saw that and shortened his length. Bafna adjusts and hoists it over mid-off for a one-bounce four
7
4
Chakravathi to Maan Bafna, FOUR, another googly, once again Bafna doesn't spot it. Shuffles across towards off to flick it through the leg-side and gets a fat outside edge that goes through non-existent first slip. Dribbles away into the third man fence too
5.3
6
Kiran Akash to Anirudha, SIX, clean strike. Made it look so easy. Not a bad ball from Akash. Was a good length ball on off, Anirudha bent across and flicked it over deep mid-wicket nonchalantly
5.1
W
Kiran Akash to Aditya, out Bowled!! There's the breakthrough! The five dots in the previous over would have probably forced Aditya to play a big shot. A back of a length delivery from round the wicket attacking the stumps. Aditya slightly shuffles across to heave it away through mid-wicket. The ball trims the inside edge and cannons onto the stumps. Aditya was looking in good touch and Madurai will be pleased with this wicket. Aditya b Kiran Akash 25(16) [4s-5]
3.4

Kiran Akash to Anirudha, FOUR, glorious shot! Exquisite timing, placement was excellent. Everything was right about that shot. Allows this short of a good length ball to come to him and caresses it through covers. Doesn't bother to run
3.1
4
Kiran Akash to Anirudha, FOUR, stand and deliver. First boundary for Anirudha. Was a good length delivery, Anirudha stands tall and drives it on the up. Was uppish, but in the gap over the cover region
3

Abhishek Tanwar to Aditya, FOUR, Sanath Jayasuriya-esque. Width provided outside off and Aditya elevates it over backward point. Quick hands from the left-handed batsman
2.3
4
Abhishek Tanwar to Aditya, FOUR, slower delivery, but it's been overpitched. Aditya spots and drills it down the ground beating the mid-off fielder. He didn't quite get it off the middle, but that was hit hard
2.1
4
Abhishek Tanwar to Aditya, FOUR, width served and Aditya won't spare you. He walks down and in the process moves leg-side to elevate this length ball over backward point
1.4
Kiran Akash to Anirudha, 1 run, dropped! Rohit, the captain, is the culprit. The bowler is miffed and rightly so. A good length delivery just outside off and Anirudha stands tall to tonk it over mid-on. Doesn't time it well and doesn't get the elevation too. Rohit at mid-on put down a sitter. How costly will it be?
1.1
4
Kiran Akash to Aditya, FOUR, what a way to welcome the new bowler. Akash starts with a wide-ish full ball outside off. Plenty of width and Aditya takes heavy toll of it. Slightly crouches and laces it over backward point. A couple of bounces and into the fence
0.2
4
Abhishek Tanwar to Aditya, FOUR, just one sighter for Aditya. Sees the line outside off on this length ball and flashes his bat hard at it. The ball flew away beating the cover fielder comfortably. Aditya gets off the mark in style
