He had to go for it but loses his wicket in the process. Aniruddha Joshi c Stallin Hoover b Sharath 54(32) [4s-5 6s-3]

Sharath to Aniruddha Joshi, 2 runs, highish full toss and has been slapped away to the man at long-off. They come back for a double as Aniruddha Joshi wanted the strike. Fifty for Joshi as well. He might have given up captaincy but his batting has hit top gear today. Superb cameo so far

Binny to Somanna, out Caught by Stallin Hoover!! The batsman was through with a lofted hit a bit too early and only managed to toe-end it. The man at long-off came running in and took an excellent diving catch. The fielder dived forward and managed to latch on to it. Somanna c Stallin Hoover b Binny 0(1)

Shubang Hegde to Jonathan R, out Caught by Akshay Ballal!! This is good reward for some excellent bowling. Lovely flight, dips on Jonathan and he's nowhere close to the length as he stretches to drive. It turns away to take the edge to slip. Jonathan R c Akshay Ballal b Shubang Hegde 3(9)

M Niyaz Nisar to Liyan Khan, out Lbw!! Nip-backer from Nisar, cuts into Liyan's knee-roll. Didn't take long for the umpire to raise his finger. Length ball, came in sharply with the seam and the impact was dead in front of off. So the line wasn't a problem. Height maybe? Maybe not. Liyan Khan lbw b M Niyaz Nisar 2(6)

Avinash D to Sharath BR, out Caught by Binny!! Short ball outside off, slapped towards mid-off where Binny takes a good catch running back. Quite a dolly compared to what he took the other day. It was an audacious shot from Sharath, trying to flat-bat a short ball down the ground. Always risky. Sharath BR c Binny b Avinash D 17(15) [4s-3]
