Abhishek Tanwar to Saravan Kumar, out Bowled!! Off stump out of the ground, Slower delivery on the stumps, Saravan Kumar swings so hard and so early, missed the ball completely. They are checking for the no ball but he is fine. Saravan Kumar b Abhishek Tanwar 12(3) [6s-2]

Abhishek Tanwar to Antony Dhas, out Caught by Sai Sudharsan!! Short ball, Dhas pulls but doesn't get the timing perfectly right. Deep mid-wicket waits and swallows the ball. Dot ball and a big wicket for Kovai. Antony Dhas c Sai Sudharsan b Abhishek Tanwar 20(11) [4s-1 6s-1]

Abhishek Tanwar to Antony Dhas, SIX, this time reads the change of pace, waits for the ball to come and smashes it high over long-on. This is good stuff from Trichy

K Vignesh to Saravan Kumar, SIX, stunning hit from Saravan Kumar! Bowler sticking this into the wicket but Saravan Kumar doesn't bother, stands tall an absolutely muscles, yes muscles the ball over mid-wicket for another big six. A good first half of the over undone by the newcomer

K Vignesh to Saravan Kumar, SIX, wowwww! Look at the height on that six. The cameras lost it for a wee bit. Length delivery, front leg out of the way and Saravan Kumar goes baanggg over long-on

K Vignesh to Akash Sumra, out Caught by R Kavin!! Tries to play the cheeky scoop over to the fine leg fence, but this ball was too close to him and hit him high on the bat. Just lobbed to the keeper, who took a few steps back to complete the catch. On a hatrick now Vignesh. But Antony Dhas has crossed over to take strike. Akash Sumra c R Kavin b K Vignesh 0(1)

K Vignesh to Sumant Jain, out Caught by R Kavin!! Short ball way outside off stump, Jain looks to fetch the pull, very optimistic and only manages to edge it to the keeper. Vignesh roars. Sumant Jain c R Kavin b K Vignesh 29(25) [4s-1 6s-2]

K Vignesh to Antony Dhas, 1 run, wide yorker outside off stump, Dhas swings and gets a thick edge that goes on the bounce to third man

Abhishek Tanwar to Antony Dhas, FOUR, top edge flies over the keeper. Short delivery, Dhas swings really hard, gets a handy edge to frustrate the bowler

Abhishek Tanwar to Sumant Jain, 2 runs, deep mid-wicket and deep backward square leg not sure who should attack the catch and they spill it. Man at deep backward square leg runs to his left, dives, gets hands to the ball but he was always rushing because they had misjudged the call. Short slower delivery, Jain mistiming the pull high and escaping

N Selva Kumaran to Nidhish Rajagopal, out Caught by Abhishek Tanwar!! Hit hard, hit flat, timed too well and it's gone straight to long-off, who stayed low to complete the catch. Fullish delivery, Rajagopal didn't bother hitting high, timed it well but couldn't get the placement right. Nidhish Rajagopal walks off after a fantastic innings. Nidhish Rajagopal c Abhishek Tanwar b N Selva Kumaran 45(28) [4s-6 6s-1]

N Selva Kumaran to Nidhish Rajagopal, FOUR, make it 44 runs off the last 14 balls for Trichy. Full and on the leg stump, Rajagopal steps down the track and muscles this over the bowler's head. Worried look on SRK's face

N Selva Kumaran to Nidhish Rajagopal, SIX, has this gone all the way? Woww! He's cut this over point for a flat six. Short and angled across, Rajagopal has managed to time it so well to probably get the shot of the innings so far

E Srinivasan to Sumant Jain, FOUR, more finesse from Jain. Used all the pace offered by the bowler and just opened the bat face last minute, third man dives to his left but doesn't get there

E Srinivasan to Sumant Jain, SIX, wow! How did he get this all the way? Shortish ball from Srinivasan, again not hit with great power, seemed like it was going to land inside the rope, but the cover boundary is short on one side because they are playing on an extreme end of the square today. He's put the free-hit away for SIX

E Srinivasan to Sumant Jain, SIX, an inside out effortless six over cover has to be the most admired shot in cricket. Srinivasan floating this full, Jain didn't try to hit it hard at all. Just put the sweet spot of the bat on ball and she sailed way back over the boundary

S Ajith Ram to Nidhish Rajagopal, 1 run, dropped! Rajagopal overran and lost his balance. The ball coming close to his chest as he misjudged this high ball. Rajagopal stepped out and toe-ended this loft very high. Not been a good over for Ajith Ram

S Ajith Ram to Nidhish Rajagopal, FOUR, this is a poor drag down from the bowler. Down leg-side, Rajagopal pulls it behind square and gets it wide of short fine leg for a hat-trick of fours

S Ajith Ram to Nidhish Rajagopal, FOUR, slogged away towards deep mid-wicket, should be two. Ohh the fielder fumbles and the bowler is fuming. Ajith Ram has had exceptional figures thus far

S Ajith Ram to Nidhish Rajagopal, FOUR, in the air, man at long-on dives full length to his right and looks to grab a one-hander air borne. The ball just evades him. Full ball, Rajagopal advances and hits it flat to the long-on boundary

U Mukilesh to Nidhish Rajagopal, FOUR, advances and lofts it down the ground towards long-off. Well placed

U Mukilesh to Nidhish Rajagopal, FOUR, guides late and the man at short third man can't get it with the dive. The ball escapes all the way

S Ajith Ram to Amit Sathvik, out Caught by Venkataraman!! Big blow for Trichy. Sathvik was looking good for a big one, but Ajith Ram has come out with a plan to force him to access the point region by bowling a flatter trajectory. The first two were dots and that built some pressure. Sathvik going hard on the cut again after getting a two over point previous ball. Repeats and goes even harder, but this time he hits it straight to backward point. Amit Sathvik c Venkataraman b S Ajith Ram 42(32) [4s-6]

N Selva Kumaran to K Mukunth, out Stumped!! He's stepped out and misses it by a long way, but he wasn't aware that the keeper had fumbled. Realized late but the keeper recovered in time to remove the bails before Mukunth could think about getting back into the crease. Selva slid this past the inside edge. Good from him to drop it short on seeing the batter run at him. K Mukunth st R Kavin b N Selva Kumaran 14(20) [4s-1]

E Srinivasan to Amit Sathvik, FOUR, short and asking to be punished. Sathvik stood tall and nailed the pull shot over mid-wicket to raise the fifty partnership

N Selva Kumaran to K Mukunth, FOUR, good batting. Knew Selva Kumaran was only going to slide it into the him, so he moved across to get in line and then played the loft straight down the ground

E Srinivasan to Amit Sathvik, FOUR, what a cracking shot. Down the track to a pacer and lofting the drive over cover on the rise. Too good from Amit Sathvik

E Srinivasan to Amit Sathvik, FOUR, good length delivery outside off stump, Sathvik drives it past the diving fielder at cover

K Vignesh to Amit Sathvik, FOUR, shortish delivery, Sathvik pulls it to deep mid-wicket

K Vignesh to Amit Sathvik, FOUR, big drive, uppish as he doesn't control the shot. Went hard at this full ball and luckily got it to the left of the man at cover. Fielder gives chase and dives but comes second

Abhishek Tanwar to Amit Sathvik, FOUR, steps down and flat bats the short of length delivery. Mid-off very wide and that's the first boundary of the game. Good beginning from Sathvik
