That's all from our side. Hope you enjoyed our coverage. See you soon.

Ananya: "Winning all the matches and losing the final has become a trend..... CPL and now Vijay Hazare....!!! How unique is that...!!!!"

3.55pm Not really a close game we all were expecting but without doubt, two of the best teams of the tournament. Both lost one match but for Tamil Nadu, it happened to be the final. And that's their first loss in a Vijay Hazare Trophy final. Karnataka have always ended up winning the title every time they have reached the final.

Manish Pandey: Very happy with the results. The mindset of the boys is they want to win every match they play. Hopefully we will continue doing well.

Dinesh Karthik: I think we played terrific cricket, one bad day doesn't make a bad team. This should give confidence going into the T20s and the Ranji Trophy.

And the game has been called off. Karnataka are the winners of the 2019-20 Vijay Hazare Trophy. They won the final by 60 runs (VJD method).

"The crowd is singing 'Happy birthday to you' for Abhimanyu Mithun, who is on the outfield with the rest of the Karnataka team," Saurabh says.

Mit Chowdhury: "I hope we have a full match, and not use the very ill "whoever won more in group stage" rule, again. " -- 20 overs have already been bowled. So we will have a result. And also, the teams would have shared the trophy in case of a washout.

Saurabh has got more info: "It looks like the match is done, because they're bringing out the backdrop they use for the post-match presentation."

3.40pm It has stopped raining now. The covers are coming off slowly. By the way, Karnataka are already ahead of the 35-over par score which is 141.

Avinash: "Just curious, what would have been the DLS target?" -- The DLS target would have been 77 at this stage.

Mind you, the Chinnaswamy Stadium has got subsurface aeration system. So once the rain stops, it shouldn't take long for play to resume.

Kiran B: "What's VJD method here..?? " -- V Jayadevan method. India don't use DLS for domestic cricket. Here's the man himself explaining why it's better than DLS.

Saurabh from the venue informs: "Covers coming on the ground - no rain yet, but as a precautionary measure with dark clouds overhead." And as I was typing this there is another update from him: "It has started raining as well. Great thinking to get the covers in place just before it did."

3.05pm And it has become quite dark out there. The umpires have called for light metres. The players have already started walking back. The VJD target at the end of 23 overs, for the loss of one wicket, is 87, so Karnataka are well ahead.

12.45pm Karnataka have fought back extremely well to bowl TN out. Mithun's five-for at the back-end restricted TN, but there were two great batting innings from the visitors as well. Mukund's 85 was well constructed while Aparajith's 66 oozed style. The rest, however, didn't really chip in too much, and that's why Karnataka have a target that's within touching distance. Remember, neither team has lost a VHT final, so this second innings will be one to relish. We'll be back in 25 minutes for the chase. See you soon

Sukruth: "Good comeback by Karnataka.. Last 5 overs 5 / 31 ..."

Mithun on a hat-trick. Can the birthday boy do it? Won't get a better chance than to bowl at a No.10/11 batsman
