G Periyaswamy to Sai Sudharsan, out Sai Sudharsan Run Out!! 1 run completed, banged in short and slanting across outside off, Sudharsan throws his hands at it and gets a thick outside edge that flies past the keeper and goes down fine to third man, the fielder does really well and Sudharsan is short of his ground as he charges back for the second. Excellent knock this from the man in form. Sai Sudharsan run out (S Ganesh/Tushar Raheja) 86(45) [4s-8 6s-4]

G Periyaswamy to Sai Sudharsan, SIX, that's why he wanted the strike! That's a sensational shot! Very full on leg-stump, right in the blockhole and somehow Sudharsan managed to flick that up and over the wide long-on fence, nothing wrong from the bowler there but Sudharsan sat deep in the crease and cleared his front-leg to get under it

G Periyaswamy to M Mohammed, 2 wides, full and wide outside off, M Mohammed looked to reach out and slice that away, the noise was of bat hitting ground. They sneak another extra run as well to put Sai Sudharsan back on strike

G Periyaswamy to Sai Sudharsan, 1 run, dropped again! Another extremely difficult chance, full and just outside off, Sudharsan got under it and slapped it down towards long-off, went quick and low to the fielder and he just couldn't hold on after leaping forward

G Periyaswamy to Sai Sudharsan, SIX, two in a row! Another delivery that's right in the slot on middle, Sudharsan sits deep in his crease before lofiting it straight back over the long-on fence for another maximum

G Periyaswamy to Sai Sudharsan, SIX, that's out of here! Full and right in the slot on off-stump, was the slower delivery as well and Sudharsan picked the bones out of that as he slogged it away over the deep mid-wicket fence, great start to the over as far as Kovai as concerned

Sai Kishore to M Mohammed, FOUR, Mohammed gets a crucial boundary! Drags this one short and wide outside off, Mohammed pressed back and slapped it past backward point

Sai Kishore to Shahrukh Khan, out Bowled!! Got him! Skipper gets skipper! Pulled the length back and bowled that ever so slightly slower, Shahrukh was backing away looking to heave that across the line and was completely done in by the slight change of pace, he was through his shot too early and it pegged his off-stump back. Shahrukh Khan b Sai Kishore 25(15) [4s-2 6s-1]

G Periyaswamy to Shahrukh Khan, 1 run, slower delivery full on the pads, flicked away towards long leg

P Bhuvaneswaran to Shahrukh Khan, SIX, banged in short and Shahrukh is up to the task! He swivels and hooks it straight over the ropes at deep backward square leg

Sai Kishore to Sai Sudharsan, FOUR, another boundary! Loopy full toss on the pads and Sudharsan wasn't going to miss out, he got down low and slogged that away square on the leg-side, found the gap again

Sai Kishore to Sai Sudharsan, FOUR, wrong line from Kishore and Sudharsan pounces on it, flatter delivery pushed through wide outside off, Sudharsan hung back and sliced it away past backward point, he's motored along nicely

Sai Kishore to Sai Sudharsan, FOUR, full-toss and it's been put away! An attempted yorker went wrong, low full-toss that was floated up on leg-stump and Sudharsan whipped it away right into the gap at wide long-on, bisected the two fielders perfectly there to bring up fifty as well!

Shankar to Shahrukh Khan, FOUR, half-tracker and he puts that away! Just short of a good length on middle, Shahrukh was quick to press on to the backfoot before swivel-pulling it into the gap at deep square leg, wasn't too far away from the fielder running across and he made no effort to try and get that, Shankar was not happy with that

Shankar to Atheeq Ur Rahman, out Bowled!! Gone! Shankar has another! Full delivery just outside off, Rahman was rooted to his crease as he looked to cut that, wrong line and length for that shot and he chopped it on to his off-stump. Atheeq Ur Rahman b Shankar 9(10) [4s-1]

P Bhuvaneswaran to Atheeq Ur Rahman, FOUR, superb shot! Overpitched on off-stump, Rahman spots mid-off inside the ring and he just drives it through the line and lofts it over the man there, one bounce and into the ropes

Sai Kishore to Sai Sudharsan, 1 run, length delivery on middle, worked away towards deep mid-wicket

Sai Kishore to U Mukilesh, out Lbw!! Appeal for leg before and he's been given! That looked very straight and Mukilesh doesn't bother wasting a review. Floated up on a good length on middle, Mukilesh stooped down low looking to sweep but missed it altogether. He was struck right in front and the umpire had no hesitation in raising the finger. Sai Kishore picks up a crucial wicket for his side. U Mukilesh lbw b Sai Kishore 33(32) [4s-3 6s-1]

Shankar to Sai Sudharsan, FOUR, that's a sensational shot! Shankar pulled the length back ever so slightly on off-stump and Sudharsan stood firm in his crease and drove that past mid-off on the up, trusted the pitch and let the ball come on to blade before timing it sweetly

S Ajith Ram to U Mukilesh, SIX, in the air and tipped over the bar! Tossed up full on middle, Mukilesh got under it and slogged it out towards wide long-on, the fielder settled under it and just couldn't hold on right at the edge of the boundary and he ended up spilling it out over the ropes!

S Manigandan to Sai Sudharsan, 2 runs, length delivery on middle, worked away into the leg-side towards mid-wicket, they charge back for two and the 50-run stand comes up

S Manigandan to Sai Sudharsan, SIX, that's into the crowd! Took a long time coming but Sudharsan has gotten a much needed boundary. Floated up full on middle, invited the batter to go after it and Sudharsan obliged, got down on one knee and smoked it over deep mid-wicket

S Ajith Ram to U Mukilesh, 1 run, length delivery on middle, worked away towards mid-wicket

G Periyaswamy to Sai Sudharsan, FOUR, super shot! Full and just outside off, enough width for Sudharsan to free his arms and drill through the gap at cover, high class shot that

G Periyaswamy to U Mukilesh, FOUR, poor delivery, full and straying on to the pads, Mukilesh whips it away behind square on the leg-side and gets it away to the fence

Shankar to Sai Sudharsan, FOUR, lovely shot! That's a shot of a man in imperious touch! Just short of a good length on middle, Sudharsan used the angle to work that into the leg-side and he got it through the gap at wide mid-on and it raced away to the fence

P Bhuvaneswaran to U Mukilesh, FOUR, nicely played! Just short of a good length outside off, Mukilesh rose with the bounce and got on top of it before slapping it down and past backward point, enough width to play that shot and he picked the gap nicely

Shankar to Sai Sudharsan, FOUR, streaky! Length delivery slanted in just outside off from round the wicket, Sudharsan prodded forward looking to push that into the off-side and there was a hint of extra bounce, it hit him high on the blade and took a thick inside edge before trickling past the stumps and to the fence

Shankar to Ram Arvindh, out Caught by Balchander Anirudh!! Driven on the up and straight to the man! Vijay Shankar is now on a hat-trick! Just a shade fuller than a good length and outside off, induced the batter into the drive but it wasn't full enough, he didn't get to the pitch of it and went through with the shot anyway. It went straight to the man at cover and he made no mistake. Ram Arvindh c Balchander Anirudh b Shankar 0(1)

Shankar to B Sachin, out Caught by Sai Kishore!! Here's another one! Sai Kishore takes that as calmly as you like! Full on middle, Sachin looked to take the bowler on and go downtown. He got under it but didn't time it nearly well enough. Went straight up off the toe end and the skipper did the rest at mid-off. So two early blows for Kovai, both openers have been dismissed. B Sachin c Sai Kishore b Shankar 2(6)

P Bhuvaneswaran to Suresh Kumar, out Lbw!! No bat, impact in-line and hitting the wickets on umpire's call. Suresh Kumar will have to go. Was a yorker fired in on leg-stump, snuck right under the bat as Kumar looked to flick and pinned him on the front pad. It was straight enough to be hitting the stumps and Tiruppur have struck. Kovai will keep the review though. Suresh Kumar lbw b P Bhuvaneswaran 11(8) [6s-1]

P Bhuvaneswaran to Suresh Kumar, SIX, there's the first maximum! Just about gets over the fence as well. Was a half-tracker on middle, Kumar hung back and just swung across the line, made a good enough connection to clear a modest sized boundary at mid-wicket
