Hyderabad vs Kerala, South Zone - Live Cricket Score, Commentary

Basil Thampi to Mohammed Siraj, FOUR, shuffles a long way across and is helped by the pace of the delivery, scooped away off the bat face, couple of bounces and into the fence

Vinod Kumar to Milind, out Caught by Sachin Baby!! Chipped over mid-on and crikey! What a catch! It's that man again, Sachin Baby, runs forward from the boundary rope and puts in a full length dive to clasp it inches above the ground. Superb stuff. Milind c Sachin Baby b Vinod Kumar 1(2)

Vinod Kumar to Hasan, out Caught by Gomez!! Full toss wide of off, Hasan goes full throttle, ends up slicing it towards backward point who takes a tumbling catch. Hasan c Gomez b Vinod Kumar 25(22) [6s-1]

Basil Thampi to Sumanth, FOUR, gives himself a bit of room and swings across the line, thick inside edge and it runs away fine

Jalaj Saxena to Hasan, SIX, saunters down, wasn't quite to the pitch of the delivery, but goes through with the shot. Sheer power and it goes all the way for a maximum over long-on

I Abdulla to Sumanth, FOUR, sits on the back foot and uses the pace to run it fine of third man

I Abdulla to Sumanth, out Akash Bhandari Run Out!! This is getting bad to worse for Hyderabad. A soft tap into the on-side and only Akash Bhandari must know why he wanted a single. Samson runs, gathers the ball and underarms a throw, hits direct at the bowler's end. This was always on the cards, ain't it? Akash Bhandari run out (Samson) 1(5)

Vinod Kumar to Akash Bhandari, no run, tapped away to backward point, and Sumanth wants a single. Sent back. Had to put in a dive to outsmart the throw from the fielder

Fabid Ahmed to Badrinath, out Caught by (sub)Mohammed Azharuddeen!! Excellent bowling this from Fabid Ahmed. Gives it a lot of flight and lures Badrinath into a loft, he goes for the stroke but couldn't get the timing right. Holes out to long-on. 19/3. what a spell from Fabid Ahmed. Badrinath c (sub)Mohammed Azharuddeen b Fabid Ahmed 29(30) [4s-2]

Fabid Ahmed to Sumanth, FOUR, swept and swept away powerfully behind square

I Abdulla to Sumanth, FOUR, short down leg, helped away to the fine leg fence

Fabid Ahmed to Sandeep, out Caught by Sachin Baby!! Lovely take by Sachin Baby at cover. Anticipates well, moves to his right and times his dive to perfection, snaffling it inches above the turf. It was dying on him, but he did well not to lose focus on the ball. It was a slower delivery on off, Sandeep just chipped it meekly, no timing whatsoever. Sandeep c Sachin Baby b Fabid Ahmed 7(6) [4s-1]

I Abdulla to Sandeep, FOUR, shimmies out and drives to the left of mid-off who was a bit slow to put in the dive, lets the ball sneak through for a boundary

Fabid Ahmed to Balchander Anirudh, out Caught by Gomez!! Poor thinking from Balchander Anirudh, they had lost 2 wickets already and the shot selection makes no sense. Wanted to loft Fabid Ahmed over long-on, chips it off the inside half to wide long-on. Simple catch for Gomez. Balchander Anirudh c Gomez b Fabid Ahmed 6(9)

Warrier to Badrinath, FOUR, doesn't matter how you get! Short delivery, pulled without much conviction, thick top-edge bounces just in front of the third man fence

Warrier to Badrinath, FOUR, goes deep in his crease and lifts a full delivery straight down the ground, one bounce and over the ropes

Warrier to Tanmay Agarwal, out Caught by Sachin Baby!! Goes for a mighty slog across the line and chips it off the cue end, high into the air. Was a diffcult chance considering the time it hung in the air, but the Kerala skipper steadied himself at cover and grabbed it sans any fuss. Tanmay Agarwal c Sachin Baby b Warrier 3(4)

Jalaj Saxena to Akshath Reddy, out Stumped!! Flatter and faster, Akshath Reddy had jumped down the pitch before the release of the ball and is beaten all ends up. Easy stumping. Akshath Reddy st Samson b Jalaj Saxena 1(2)
