Trichy Warriors 150/3 after 18.4 overs

DROPPED and SIX! Indrajith top edges a sweep but it is dropped at fine leg. How crucial will that be? Sai Kishore looks away in disgust.

Trichy Warriors 46/0 after 5 overs

Tuti Patriots post 157/7

This was an innings of four quarters of five overs. The first five overs was relatively even as Tuti scored 41 but lost a wicket. The second quarter was dominated by the Trichy Warriors, who picked up two wickets and conceded just 27 runs. Overs 11-15 belonged to the Patriots, who made the most of a dropped catch off the first ball of the 11th over as they added 55 runs in that period without losing a wicket. The final quarter undoubtedly belonged to Trichy, who conceded just 34 runs and picked up four wickets.

Just five runs off the final over and Ganpa gives Trichy the perfect finish as Tuti finish on 157/7.

OUT! Akash Sumra attempts a big shot but skies that and that is another good catch running back. This time the catch is by MS Sanjay.

Sonu Yadav has been exceptional today with his variations. The batsmen simply haven't been able to pick his slower ones and he has varied his length nicely as well. He finishes his spell with figures of 2/25

Tuti Patriots 152/6 after 19 overs

OUT! Malolan tries to go big but perishes as Suresh Kumar takes a brilliant catch running back from backward point. Malolan Rangarajan c Suresh Kumar b Sonu Yadav 3(4)

Tuti Patriots 148/6 after 18.2 overs

Nine runs off the 18th over and Ganpa did well to pull things back after conceding a boundary off the first ball.

Tuti Patriots 147/5 after 18 overs

Successful over from Suresh Kumar as he picks up the big fish while also conceding just six runs, which included two wides.

Tuti Patriots 138/5 after 17 overs

OUT! Suresh Kumar is the man with the golden arm once again. This time he gets rid of the well set Abishiek who tries to clear deep mid-wicket but cannot get all of it and only finds the fielder. Abishiek c MS Sanjay b Suresh Kumar 30(27)

Tuti Patriots 134/5 after 16.3 overs

OUT! Nidish goes for one six too many and all he can do is lob one into the hands of Indrajith at cover after smashing a six over long on off the previous ball. Nidish Rajagopal c Indrajith b Tamil Kumaran 41(26)

Tuti Patriots 132/4 after 16 overs

Suresh Kumar is into the attack and his first over goes for just seven runs.

Tuti Patriots 123/3 after 15 overs

Sonu Yadav has been incredibly impressive with his variations. From the slower balls to the yorker, he has all the tricks and is showcasing them for the world to see. Eight off this over.

Tuti Patriots 116/3 after 14 overs

The game is starting to slip away from Trichy. 14 runs came off the final over from Kannan Vignesh.

Tuti Patriots 112/3 after 13 overs

10 runs in two balls! Nidish, who was dropped earlier, is making the most of his life. Both boundaries came wide of long on.

Incredibly expensive start from MS Sanjay. After conceding four runs before even a ball was bowled, his over ends with Tuti picking up 19 runs.

Tuti Patriots 98/3 after 12 overs

Some excellent fielding from Trichy in the last two balls. First a diving stop at long off to save a certain boundary, then a direct hit from the bowler. Although the latter ricochets off the stumps and Tuti sneak two runs off the overthrow, it shows the commitment the Warriors have after some dropped catches earlier.

Tuti Patriots 89/3 after 11.3 overs

MS Sanjay hasn't found his radar so far. He has now bowled FOUR WIDES in a row.

Trichy are shelling catches like there is no tomorrow. And that is already proving to be costly. Instead of a wicket off the firstball of the 11th over, it goes for 11 runs, including a six off the last ball.

Tuti Patriots 79/3 after 11 overs

DROPPED! Another dropped chance this time by Bharath Shankar as Nidish is let off the hook. What is happening out there?

Seven runs off that over from DT Chandrasekar and at the halfway stage, Tuti have two relatively new batsmen trying to rebuild.

Tuti Patriots 68/3 after 10 overs

Another tight over that brings a wicket from Tamil Kumaran. Just three came off it.
