Karaikudi Kaalai vs TUTI Patriots, 28th Match - Live Cricket Score, Commentary

Athisayaraj Davidson to R Kavin, out Caught by S Dinesh!! Goes for the big one, but doesn't line himself up for Davidson's wide line. Squirts it off the outside half as it flies away towards third man, where Dinesh runs across and judges it to perfection. So, 164 is what it'll be. R Kavin c S Dinesh b Athisayaraj Davidson 3(5)

Athisayaraj Davidson to Rajhamany Srinivasan, FOUR, slower wide line, and Srinivasan reads it very smartly. Frees up his hands and waits on it to get close in slicing it behind point

Sai Kishore to Rajhamany Srinivasan, SIX, clears out his front leg, adopts the line and for a change Kishore has gone quicker as well for the ball to sit up and then connect with Srinivasan's smoke into the sightscreen

Athisayaraj Davidson to Rajkumar, out Caught by S Abishiek!! Changes up the pace, dishing out width as he entices Rajkumar into going after it. He does, through the line with an airy slice, but just doesn't get hold of it with the bat face turning in his hands. Down sweeper cover's throat. Rajkumar c S Abishiek b Athisayaraj Davidson 11(10) [4s-1]

Rajamani Jesuraj to Rajhamany Srinivasan, SIX, goes full, and goes out of the park. Right in the slot for Srinivasan to go after, and he hacks it with a full bat swing to tonk it into long-on

Nidish Rajagopal to Rajhamany Srinivasan, FOUR, top stuff. Rajagopal bangs it in short, losing his radar in the process and Srinivasan jumps up, rides it and makes room for himself to slap it uppishly over point

Nidish Rajagopal to Rajkumar, FOUR, a big walk across his stumps, down as well and drives it off the pitch of it and through the line into extra cover

Sai Kishore to Shajahan, out Shajahan Run Out!! 1 run completed. Gone! Needless second and Shajahan departs. He was once again nudges it with soft hands into the on-side, this time the keeper - Subramanian Anand chases the ball towards square leg and sends in a throw to the striker's end. Moorthi comes running in from point to remove the bails. Shajahan puts in a desperate dive but is still not in the frame. Shajahan run out (Subramanian Anand/M Ganesh Moorthi) 20(17) [4s-2]

Malolan Rangarajan to Rajhamany Srinivasan, FOUR, lovely shot! Applauded by everyone in the dugout. Gentle uses of the feet and gets to the pitch of the delivery, then drives it beautifully through extra cover

Nidish Rajagopal to Shajahan, no run, dropped! It was a tough return catch. Low full toss and Shajahan kept moving around in his crease, then lobbed it back to the bowler, who tries to grab the ball and loses it from his grasp

Nidish Rajagopal to Shajahan, FOUR, consecutive boundaries. Rajagopal struggling with his line, short and down leg, Shajahan swivels on the pull and once again beats the squarish fine leg fielder

Nidish Rajagopal to Shajahan, FOUR, full toss made to look even worse with the charge down, on the pads and Shajahan tickes it fine. The fielder in the deep was nowhere in the picture

Nidish Rajagopal to Maan Bafna, out Caught by Rangarajan!! Reckless! Absolutely poor application from Bafna. He had gotten away with a miscue the previous ball and he again tries to send the ball out of the park, no height nor distance to clear long-on, simple catch for the fielder running in. Maan Bafna c Rangarajan b Nidish Rajagopal 7(5) [6s-1]

Nidish Rajagopal to Maan Bafna, SIX, high and just over. First ball and Bafna decides to take him, swings blindly through the line and gets plenty of height, luckily for him it clears the leaping long-on fielder

Rajamani Jesuraj to Aditya, out Caught&Bowled!! Look at the celebrations. Patriots have removed the openers in two overs. Another back of a length delivery that does not have the pace, Aditya goes for the pull and is early into the shot, the top-edge skies and Jesuraj moves forward to pouch. Aditya c and b Rajamani Jesuraj 37(31) [4s-5]

Sai Kishore to Anirudha, out Bowled!! The partnership is broken. Sai Kishore provides the much needed wicket for Patriots. Lovely bowling from the left-armer. Floated it up and got it to drift in outside off, Anirudha saw the flight and went for the drive, the ball deflects off the inside edge onto the stumps. He was deceived by the flight as he did not reach the pitch of the ball. Anirudha b Sai Kishore 28(23) [4s-2 6s-1]

Rajamani Jesuraj to Aditya, FOUR, off-cutter on a length and Aditya heaves it with all his might towards deep square, the ball bounces and skids off the turf beating the fielder

M Ganesh Moorthi to Anirudha, FOUR, pulled straight to mid-wicket, very conventioanlly, but the fielder out there just lets it slip through his legs

Sai Kishore to Aditya, FOUR, plays the sweep instead of the pull and is rewarded immediately. On a bent knee fetches it from outside off and brooms it wide of the deep mid-wicket fielder. Brings up the 50-run stand

M Ganesh Moorthi to Anirudha, FOUR, small margins for error against Anirudha. There was wee bit of space for Anirudha to free his arms and he plays the square drive to perfection - bisecting point and cover-point

Athisayaraj Davidson to Aditya, FOUR, slower delivery and Aditya just went through with the shot, flat-batted smash past his partner and mid-off had no chance even with a full length dive

Athisayaraj Davidson to Aditya, FOUR, shaping into the pads and it is right in the arc for Aditya, clipped nonchalantly over backward square and it almost went the distance

M Ganesh Moorthi to Anirudha, SIX, fabulous shot! Struck with the wind and it kept sailing over the fence. Pitched it up and outside off, Anirudha used his reach and lofted it handsomely inside out over extra cover

M Ganesh Moorthi to Aditya, FOUR, width offered from round the wicket and Aditya puts it away, short and outside off, Aditya cuts it uppishly between short third and backward point, the fast outfield takes care of the rest
