Madurai Panthers vs Ruby Trichy Warriors, 8th Match - Live Cricket Score, Commentary

M Poiyamozhi to Shajahan, out Bowled!! Duck for Shajahan! That's a slower short ball by M Poiyamozhi and the southpaw is very early in his shot. Swings way too early, gets beaten only to find his stumps rattled. Not able to get the finish they would have desired for. Shajahan b M Poiyamozhi 0(1)

Saravan Kumar to J Kousik, out Caught&Bowled!! That's a high full-toss, but it's just below the batsman's waist. J Kousik looks to go big, swings his bat across the line and miscues it just next to the pitch. The bowler moves across, gets under the skier and takes the catch on the second attempt. Departs after playing an impressive knock does Kousik. J Kousik c and b Saravan Kumar 44(32) [4s-3 6s-2]

Saravan Kumar to J Kousik, FOUR, almost a yorker on off, J Kousik picks the bones out of it as he bludgeons it right over the bowler's head for four runs. Great shot that by the batsman

Saravan Kumar to J Kousik, FOUR, bowler under pressure as the batsmen are going after him. Width on offer and the batsman has smashed it over mid-off powerfully for four more

Saravan Kumar to B Anirudh Sita Ram, FOUR, shimmies down the wicket and whacks this short ball through covers for a cracking boundary. No stopping that folks! A boundary early in the over, and he'll try to make this over a big one

Rahil to B Anirudh Sita Ram, 1 run, fired on middle and leg, Anirudh shimmies down the wicket and flicks it through square leg for one. 50-run stand up!

Rahil to J Kousik, SIX, clean as a whistle! A tossed up delivery by the spinner and Koushik has smoked it right over the bowler's head and into the sightscreen for a biggie

M Poiyamozhi to J Kousik, FOUR, and the bowler looks disappointed with the fielder's effort at short fine leg. What a sloppy effort that! A length ball by M Poiyamozhi and J Kousik glances it wristily, only for the fielder inside the ring to mess it up, resulting in four more

M Poiyamozhi to B Anirudh Sita Ram, FOUR, edged away to the boundary! A full length delivery outside off, Anirudh goes for a flashy drive away from his body and gets an outside edge that runs down to the third man fence

Mathivannan to J Kousik, SIX, dances down the wicket and lofts the tossed up delivery over long-on for half-a-dozen

Sunil Sam to Chaturved, out Bowled!! Look at that send-off from Sunil Sam. He roars and has a word or two to the departing batsman. Fine delivery - swung in and then nipped just a little off the seam, Chaturved was playing outside the line on the defence and sees his off-stump go for a walk. Top of off too. Panthers in trouble now. Chaturved b Sunil Sam 0(1)

Sunil Sam to B Anirudh Sita Ram, FOUR, was just a push and it's four wide of mid-off. What timing but one must say that the mid-off fielder should've dived, instead he decides to run after it and it's in a losing cause

Mathivannan to Ramalingam Rohit, out Bowled!! Mathivannan is on fire. Involved in all three dismissals so far. Was the arm-ball this time and Ramalingam Rohit made the fatal mistake of cutting that, the ball cannons into the stumps off a thick inside edge. Mathivannan punches the air in delight. Ramalingam Rohit b Mathivannan 5(9)

Mathivannan to Rajkumar, out Caught by Muhammed Khan!! Rajkumar falls in eyeing the big mid-wicket boundary. That is to the larger part of the ground and his slog-sweep finds the fielder to perfection on the fence. Mathivannan has his arms aloft in celebration. Rajkumar c Muhammed Khan b Mathivannan 18(22) [4s-2]

M Poiyamozhi to Rajkumar, FOUR, thrashed wide of a diving extra-cover and there's no stopping that. M Poiyamozhi goes full outside off and pays the price. Typical left-hander's shot

Saravan Kumar to Arun Karthik, out Caught by Mathivannan!! Brilliant running catch and one of the best so far in this year's TNPL. Arun Karthik slices the lofted drive over cover-point and the ball seemed to be landing in no-man's land but Mathivannan ran back, kept his eyes on the ball and held it with two hands as the ball came down over his shoulder. Superbly judged take. Arun Karthik c Mathivannan b Saravan Kumar 17(16) [4s-2]

Rahil to Rajkumar, FOUR, deep mid-wicket was there yet Rajkumar goes with the spin and finds the boundary. Swung across the line and beats the fielder

Saravan Kumar to Arun Karthik, FOUR, slightly off-line and Arun Karthik capitalises. Was a short delivery on the hips, Arun Karthik got inside the line and pulls it well wide of short fine leg inside the ring

Saravan Kumar to Arun Karthik, FOUR, smashed on the rise. Just a tad too full and beats a host of fielders on the off-side through cover
