Madurai Panthers vs Chepauk Super Gillies, 19th Match - Live Cricket Score, Commentary

Yo Mahesh to Raja, out Raja Run Out!! 1 run completed. FUll delivery outside off stump, Raja drives it to long-off, the throw is once again spot on from the deep. Close to the stumps and the keeper smashes the stumps before Raja could make his ground with the dive. Raja run out (Sathish/S Karthik) 4(3)

Yo Mahesh to Vignesh, out Vignesh Run Out!! 1 run completed. Shortish and wide outside off stump, Vignesh stands right across the stumps and pulls towards wide long-on, comes back for two, but the throw is way too good from the deep, on the full and close to the sticks for the keeper to do the rest. Vignesh run out (Anthony Dhas/S Karthik) 5(5)

Sai Kishore to Suresh Kumar, out Caught by Sargunam!! Sliced in the air and straight to backward point. Full delivery outside off stump, Suresh Kumar went for the drive, bowled very wide by the bowler, so the ball could only take the bottom of the bat. Suresh Kumar c Sargunam b Sai Kishore 16(19) [4s-2]

Yo Mahesh to Francis Rokins, out Bowled!! The batsman has paddled this ball straight onto his off stump. In fact, the ball went off the pad. Francis Rokins walked across and tried to find the fine leg boundary, instead found his stumps. Francis Rokins b Yo Mahesh 13(15) [4s-1]

Sai Kishore to Francis Rokins, FOUR, the batsman shuffles and puts the bowler off his lines, a short ball down the leg-side is helped fine to fine leg

Sathish to Suresh Kumar, FOUR, opens the face of the bat and guides it between backward point and short third man

Sathish to Suresh Kumar, out Shahrukh Khan Run Out!! 1 run completed. Punched off the back foot, work to do for the man at sweeper cover, oh my word! That's a brilliant direct-hit from the deep and Shahrukh Khan is a goner. What an over this has turned out to be. All of a sudden, Madurai have been reduced from 116/0 to 118/3. Looked like the non-striker wasn't expecting the fielder to be so accurate and he was well short of the crease. Shahrukh Khan run out (Arun Kumar) 1(1)

Sathish to Shijit Chandran, out Caught by Arun Kumar!! That's two in two for Sathish. He's on a hat-trick now.

Shijit Chandran c Arun Kumar b Sathish 61(37) [4s-3 6s-5]

Sathish to Arun Karthik, out Caught by Alexander!! That's a lucky wicket for Sathish. Alexander almost spilled the catch at fine leg. He juggled and took it on the third attempt. Shortish slower delivery down the leg-side, Karthik wanted to flick it all the way, got a leading edge that flew high in the air and only carried as far as long leg. Chepauk have finally got the first wicket. Arun Karthik c Alexander b Sathish 55(37) [4s-5 6s-2]
