Nellai Royal Kings vs IDream Tiruppur Tamizhans, 14th Match - Live Cricket Score, Commentary

NS Harish to Thamarai Kannan, FOUR, oh dear! Slog-swept straight to deep mid-wicket and the fielder has made a mess of it. Not sure how he misjudged that. Went reverse-cupped and barely got his fingers on it

NS Harish to Crist, out Stumped!! Crist swings across the line and fails to lay bat on ball. Indrajith takes off the bails and there's a stumping appeal. Did he drag his back leg inside in time? No, Crist's back leg is well outside the crease and it's an easy decision for the TV umpire. Crist st Indrajith b NS Harish 2(3)

Sanjay Yadav to A Karuppusamy, out Bowled!! Slower through the air, Karuppusamy backs away to pull hard and connects with thin air. The ball spins a bit to make a mess of the sticks. A Karuppusamy b Sanjay Yadav 3(4)

Sanjay Yadav to A Karuppusamy, 2 runs, dropped! Karuppusamy moves leg-side again and slaps over point. The man in the deep runs in and fails to hold onto a straightforward chance

NS Harish to Maan Bafna, out Caught by Aparajith!! Holes out on this occasion! Shimmies down the track does Maan Bafna and loses his shape as he tries to over-hit attempting a loft. The bottom hand comes off the handle and the ball goes a long way up in the air. Aparajith comes in from long-off to gobble it up. Maan Bafna c Aparajith b NS Harish 37(35) [4s-2 6s-1]

NS Harish to Maan Bafna, 2 runs, gets down to slog-sweep and miscues. Even the bottom hand comes off the handle. Fortunately for him, the ball falls just short of the forward-running and forward-diving deep mid-wicket fielder

NS Harish to Maan Bafna, 1 run, comes down the track and slogs off the inner half. Deep mid-wicket runs to his left and takes it on the bounce

Aparajith to Tushar Raheja, out Bowled!! Aparajith has his revenge! And it's a beauty. It's an offbreak on a length, lands around middle and Tushar Raheja is drawn forward to defend. Sharp spin and the ball rips past the outside edge to hit the off-stump. Tushar Raheja b Aparajith 18(14) [4s-1 6s-1]

Aparajith to Tushar Raheja, SIX, comes down the track, slightly moves leg-side and reaches out for this wide-ish ball to loft it over long-off

Aparajith to Tushar Raheja, no run, in-dart, Tushar Raheja fails to make contact with his switch hit and is hit on the thigh pad (outside leg). The batter wanders out of his crease and Indrajith back-flicks but fails to hit the target. Raheja was a goner had there been a direct hit

M Rooban Raj to Tushar Raheja, FOUR, shot! Pitched up, Tushar Raheja plays a lovely aerial straight drive. No one's stopping that

Aparajith to Maan Bafna, FOUR, tossed up, Maan Bafna leans forward to work it into the on-side. The ball spins and bounces to catch the outside edge. Beats the keeper to his left and runs away to third man for four

Aparajith to Maan Bafna, FOUR, slightly short and Maan Bafna pounces. Goes back in his crease to cut it fiercely, beats the diving backward point fielder to his left

M Rooban Raj to Francis Rokins, out Caught by NS Harish!! Gone! With mid-off inside the circle, Francis Rokins tries to loft this full delivery over the infield. However, the timing goes awry as the bat turns at the point of contact. Harish back-pedals and moves to his right from mid-off to take a safe catch. Francis Rokins c NS Harish b M Rooban Raj 13(20) [4s-1]

Sanjay Yadav to Maan Bafna, SIX, finally some aggression. Bafna comes down the track, gets to the pitch of the ball and lofts it with the spin over long-on

M Rooban Raj to Francis Rokins, 1 run, direct hit and Rokins was gone. Back of a length around off, Rokins pats it in front of cover and sets off, the fielder swoops down and fires a throw at the bowler's end, misses the target and Rokins survives

Sanjay Yadav to Francis Rokins, FOUR, fraction short and outside off, Rokins waits and plays the late cut past the slip fielder, used the pace and picked up the boundary

K Easwaran to Subramanian Anand, out Caught by Indrajith!! Easwaran has the last laugh. Good riposte after being hit for a six. He sees Anand walk down and digs the ball into the pitch, generates extra bounce and that foils Anand's attempted cut shot, the ball takes the outside edge and flies at a good height to Indrajith. Subramanian Anand c Indrajith b K Easwaran 15(14) [4s-1 6s-1]

K Easwaran to Subramanian Anand, SIX, short of length and no real pace on this delivery, Anand had ample time to pick his spot and he pulls it flat over backward square

K Easwaran to S Siddharth, out Caught by NS Harish!! Second wicket for Easwaran. Siddharth never looked settled apart from the two boundaries. He tries to pull this short of length delivery off the front foot and completely mistimes it, the ball hits the splice of the bat and balloons towards mid-on, Harish backtracks and reverse cups it safely. S Siddharth c NS Harish b K Easwaran 8(11) [4s-2]

Athisayaraj Davidson to Subramanian Anand, FOUR, full and in the slot, Anand brings his bottom hand into play and whips it over mid-wicket, couple of bounces and into the fence

K Easwaran to S Aravind, out Caught by Indrajith!! Gone! Easwaran strikes with his second ball and Nellai have an early wicket. Good length ball slanted across, Aravind prods forward and goes feeling for the ball, bit of away seam movement and that is enough to take the outside edge, simple catch for Indrajith. S Aravind c Indrajith b K Easwaran 0(2)

Athisayaraj Davidson to S Siddharth, FOUR, short, wide and four. A hit-me ball from Davidson and Siddharth does not miss out, he makes use of the width and slaps the cut in front of square on the off-side, piercing the packed field

Athisayaraj Davidson to S Siddharth, FOUR, edged and safe. Pitched up and Siddharth is drawn into the drive, the ball shapes away and takes the outside edge, lands short of the slip fielder and escapes past him
