V Koushik to Kranthi Kumar, no run, yorker length and it is jammed back to the bowler, who fumbles but is quick to get behind the ball

Abhishek Bhat to AM Kiran, FOUR, edged and four. Walks down and just has a feel for the ball, the outside edge runs away fine

Abhishek Bhat to Vinay Kumar, out Vinay Kumar Run Out!! 1 run completed. Needless. Vinay's eagerness has cost him his wicket.

Even the third umpire was not needed. Vinay Kumar run out (Shreyas Gopal/M Vishwanathan) 20(22) [4s-1]

Anand Doddamani to Praveen Dubey, out Bowled!! Cleaned up! Doddamani is delighted and celebrates with a fist pump.

Sujit N Gowda c Shreyas Gopal b V Koushik 0(1)

V Koushik to Shivraj S, out Lbw!! Second wicket for the Blasters and the Tigers have been rocked early, on a good length and nipping back in, Shivraj was caught in his crease as he pushed forward, struck in line and would have been going on and hitting the stumps. Shivraj S lbw b V Koushik 0(2)

Mitrakanth to Taha, out Caught by M Vishwanathan!! Taha looks very disappointed as he walks back to the hut, this was tossed up just outside off, Taha went for the sweep, was undone by the bounce and the ball popped up - probably off his arm-guard, simple catch for the keeper and the umpire's finger went up straightaway. Taha c M Vishwanathan b Mitrakanth 6(5) [6s-1]

Mitrakanth to Taha, SIX, that's some start from Taha, flighted delivery outside off, he leans forward and goes inside out over cover, sails all the way over the ropes
