- BATSMENRB4s6sSR1.2 wider outside the off stump. Arun seemed scratchy from the beginning. He was going for big hits without getting his eye in or figuring the pitch. This time around he got tempted by the wider line and went after it. He gets a faint outside edge back to the keeper, who goes up in appeal as soon as he pouches it. That's the first wicket 3/115.4 goes again but only to find deep midwicket fielder. This time the bowler undercuts the ball and bowls it quick too. Nishanth goes for a wild slog sweep but fails to get any power behind the shot. Lakshay out there takes a good catch 103/44.5 fuller ball outside the off stump. He looks to clear the mid off fielder, but he can't as Sonu Yadav leaps and takes a good catch 24/211.3 that's a soft dismissal. It was tossed up outside leg, switches around and tries to play the reverse sweep. No pace to word around and gifts a dolly to the man at point 73/317.1 he gets his third. Flat and wide outside off, reaches out and tries to play over the man at point, no timing yet again. 112/518.6 sloe leg cutter on middle and leg, gets low and slogs towards deep midwicket. Mohan in the deep takes an easy catch 124/619.4 Poiyamozhi gets his first. Full and slow, Ashwin goes for a big hit, total power-failure. Mistimes towards long-off and an easy catch 125/719.5 he comes and he goes. Another offie on a length, Rahul was early into the shot, misses the ball and cannons into the stumps 125/8Extras5 (lb 2, nb 1, w 2)TOTAL126/8 (20 Overs, RR: 6.3)Fall of wickets: 1-3 (S Karthik, 1.2 ov), 2-24 (K Deeban Lingesh, 4.5 ov), 3-73 (Washington Sundar, 11.3 ov), 4-103 (Hari Nishaanth, 15.4 ov), 5-112 (Jagatheesan Kousik, 17.1 ov), 6-124 (Swapnil Singh, 18.6 ov), 7-125 (Murugan Ashwin, 19.4 ov), 8-125 (Dev Rahul, 19.5 ov)

- BATSMENRB4s6sSR3.1 there's a review for LBW even as there has been a run out off the delivery. Fuller ball around the leg stump. It seemed like it pitched outside the line of the stumps. He was hit in line with the stumps there. The ball tracking confirms that it was indeed pitching outside the line of the leg stump. The run out, though, seems to be a poor understanding of the situation by Neranjan as he set off for the run / leg bye (whatever he thought it was). The fielder from the point, Kousik, picks up the ball and throws down the stumps at the bowler's end. Neranjan was long out 30/14.4 fuller ball outside the off stump. It doesn't look like he timed it well as he smashes it back to the bowler, who does well to take the catch on his follow through. The umpires seek the help of the third umpire to check if the catch was taken properly. The replays show that it was an excellent catch. Vairavan sitting next to me says, "Played for Madurai and now smashing Madurai's bowlers". Well his innings comes to an end 49/28.2 on the length and in line with the stumps. He was looking to pull it and missed. The umpire had no problems in raising the finger as it was plumb 77/311.1 slow full toss, a real loser on off. Took ages to arrive and Sonu mistimes it back to the bowler who takes a simple return catch 106/4Extras2 (lb 1, w 1)TOTAL129/4 (13.4 Overs, RR: 9.43)Fall of wickets: 1-30 (Sri Neranjan, 3.1 ov), 2-49 (Arun Karthik, 4.4 ov), 3-77 (SJ Arun Kumar, 8.2 ov), 4-106 (Sonu Yadav, 11.1 ov)
