Lyca Kovai Kings vs IDream Tiruppur Tamizhans, 5th Match - Live Cricket Score, Commentary

So two last over thrillers in the Tamil Nadu Premier League today to enjoy for the crowd in Salem. The action continues tomorrow at the same venue. Join us then, bye for now!!

Shahrukh Khan | Lyca Kovai Kings Captain and Player of the Match: (On last over) With the experience of Mohammed, we had 100% trust in him. He has done it plenty of times for Tamil Nadu. (On his batting) It was a slow wicket, it was a bit sticky. Today I had to bide my time and take it slow. I got out 2 overs before but happy to contribute for the team.

VIjay Shankar | Tiruppur Tamizhans Captain: It is difficult to take but very happy with the way we played. Lots of positives - the way Raheja and Mohamed Ali played was amazing. Really happy with the way the boys played and looking forward to the future. If you put your heart into it, the results sometimes doesn’t matter. I think 2 overs 13 to win, we should have looked for a boundary. We can always say we should have done this or done that, but at the end of the day it is about holding your nerve. Captaincy gives me that extra responsibility which I always like, enjoying every moment.

22:36 Local Time, 17:06 GMT, 22:36 IST: What a game!! So many twists and turns, and the final ball of the game ultimately swings it in favour of the Lyca Kovai Kings. Chasing 161, the Tiruppur Tamizhans lost a wicket off the first ball, and lost Amit Sathvik also within the powerplay. Tushar Raheja though held firm from one end, stitching a partnership with skipper Vijay Shankar. The southpaw scored a fifty and was looking good although Vijay Shankar and B Anirudh were dismissed. Mohamed Ali though struck a killer blow to the Kovai Kings, as he tonked M Mohammed and J Subramanayan to get the equation down to 13 off 2 overs. However, skipper Shahrukh Khan bowled a brilliant penultimate over, conceding just 3 and getting the wicket of Mohamed Ali. Defending 10 runs in the final over, M Mohammed held his nerve as he dismissed the set Tushar Raheja and then the last ball run out from the keeper gave the Kovai Kings a nervy win.

M Mohammed to S Ajith Ram, out S Ganesh Run Out!! What an anti-climatic end!! A length ball outside off at good pace from M Mohammed. The batter misses and they try to squeeze a bye. Keeper Suresh Kumar collects and throws with precision, hits the base of the stump and the non striker isn't even in the frame. He's overjoyed, the Kovai Kings have pulled off a heist. S Ganesh run out (Suresh Kumar) 1(3)
