Titans won by 9 wickets Manikandann S 85(25) | Nadeem Khan 47(15) Kumaran N 3-40(2) |Abishek P 1-15(1)
This match was deemed as the high-octane clash and it lived up to the billing. Who saw this coming? Did anyone give a chance to Titans after the Kings posted a huge score? Well, it needed some magic with the bat from one of the top three to pull what seemed to be a difficult task and Manikandann S produced exactly that
We witnessed monstrous striking and what's unfortunate from Kings' point of view was that even the mishits were going for the maximum. He smashed the fastest half-century in the tournament and hardly anyone figured out a way to stop him. The sixes continued to rain and when it looked like he would register a three-figure score, Abishek brought his swashbuckling knock to an end
Eventually, Titans chased it with 8 balls to spare and they are level on points with Kings now. It's been so much entertainment and we have one more match to go before we wrap up proceedings for the day. Do join us for the LIVE updates, until next time, this is Pragadeesh and Bidipto signing off
8.4 Rajaram S to Ramesh Kajendran, FOUR RUNS! TITANS WIN IT AT A CANTER! Good length ball around off-stump. Punched through the cover point region on the up and the ball races away to the fence for a boundary!
8.3 Rajaram S to Ramesh Kajendran, SIX! Good length ball on off-and-middle. Smashed off the front foot over the bowler. This was not struck sweetly but the ball still carried over the rope and into the sight screen!
8.2 Rajaram S to Ramesh Kajendran, good length ball outside off-stump. A play and a miss from the back foot. The appeal for caught behind was there but the umpire was not interested.
8.1 Rajaram S to Ramesh Kajendran, FOUR! Round the wicket, good length ball on off-stump. Thumped down to the left of long-on. The fielder there makes a mistake and gives away a boundary!
