Karun Nair [Mysuru Warriors captain]: Glad to be on the winning side, all chipped in today, happy that bowlers stuck to their plans. We did really well yesterday but couldn't do well with the ball, we came out well to finish the job with the ball today. There's no secret, I've been practicing a lot, working rally hard, something's burning inside, wants to do well and working out well. After yesterday, come back to bowl like that, is brilliant and I'm a happy captain. We had a relax atmosphere, we always keep it that way and important to keep ourselves in the moment.

Well, it is the defending champions who have been comprehensively beaten by the Mysore Warriors. After having faced two losses on the trot, the Warriors have turned it around significantly to get a big win under their belt. Meanwhile, troubles will be mounting for the Mystics, who have now lost two on the trot and seem to struggle on this particular pitch.
Chasing a big total of 199 runs, the Mystics got off to a fantastic start courtesy of a hard-hitting LR Chethan, who spared no bowler as he took them on, dispatching them to all ends of the park mercilessly. His batting partner, Prajwal, too played a couple of lusty shots before perishing.
However, after this initial passage of play, it was the Warriors who bossed proceedings. They managed to snare a couple of wickets prior to the completion of the powerplay. When the Mystics were pretty well-placed, it was Monish Reddy who sent back Chethan to pull the game back in favour of the Warriors.
From there on, it was a walk in the park as the batters kept biting the dust one after another. All bowlers finished with at least a wicket, with Manoj Bhandage stealing the show with a 4-fer - following his unbeaten 32(15) cameo earlier in the day. In the end, the total proved to be a little too much for the Mystics to chase down as they succumb to a massive 54-run loss.
