Chepauk Super Gillies vs Dindigul Dragons, Eliminator - Live Cricket Score, Commentary

Dindigul Dragons will take on IDream Tiruppur Tamizhans in the second Qualifier on Friday. That match and the final will both take place at Chepauk in Chennai. That's all we have from here. Until next time, it's goodbye.

Ravichandran Ashwin, Dindigul Dragons captain and PoTM: Pressure does these things (on the near collapse), we'll have to have a chat, but the important thing was we closed the game. It was an imperfect game, despite our shoddy bowling and fielding, we kept them down to a low score. As an international and IPL player, the responsibility was with me to do well (with the bat). We haven't played the perfect game, hopefully we'll do well in the coming games. Thankful for the crowd for having turned up.

Baba Aparajith, CSG captain: I thought 157 was a good score, we didn't take our chances, Ashwin and Shivam Singh batted really well. Prem Kumar is a very promising bowler, coming in directly into the Eliminator and doing so well, he should do better next season. We have had a lot of positives, but we did leak too many runs at times.

22:43 Local Time, 17:13 GMT, 22:43 IST: They should've finished it off much sooner, but Dindigul Dragons eventually get the job done in the final over. They were cruising at one stage as Ashwin and Shivam put on 112 runs for the second wicket. Ashwin pushed himself up the order and went after the bowling in powerplay, racing to his fifty off just 27 balls. Shivam brought up his fifty as well, and the two of them brought the equation down to 45 needed off 42 balls. But things got interesting in the final few overs with wickets falling. If only CSG held on to their catches, who knows what could've happened.

Rahil to S Dinesh Raj, FOUR, Dinesh Raj finishes it off! Fired in on leg stump, full ball, and he crashes it through extra cover after making some room. Dindigul Dragons are through to the second Qualifier while Chepauk Super Gillies are eliminated

A chat between bowler and captain

Rahil to Suboth Bhati, 1 run, full outside off, Bhati connects with the sweep and smashes it to deep midwicket. Will only be a single

Rahil to Suboth Bhati, wide, fired down leg, Bhati looks to sweep but misses

Rahil to S Dinesh Raj, leg byes, 1 run, wow he goes for a reverse-sweep first ball because the field is in on the off-side. The ball is fired down leg, he fails to connect and is hit on the pad

S Dinesh Raj, right handed bat, comes to the crease

Rahil to C Sarath Kumar, out Caught by Aparajith!! More drama! Juicy full toss from round the wicket, C Sarath Kumar gets low for the slog-sweep, hits it flat and hard, and Aparajith takes a brilliant catch right on the edge of the long-on boundary. C Sarath Kumar c Aparajith b Rahil 12(11) [6s-1]

Rahil to C Sarath Kumar, THATS OUT!! Caught!!

Rahil Shah [3.0-0-26-1] is back into the attack

CSG are behind on over rate and will be penalised. They need to have an extra fielder in the ring for this final over

Abhishek Tanwar to C Sarath Kumar, 1 run, another simple catch goes down! Low full toss around off, C Sarath Kumar swipes across the line, miscues it in the air and should've been taken at deep midwicket. Fielder looks to catch it with the reverse-cup but it goes right through his hands. Oh dear!

Abhishek Tanwar to C Sarath Kumar, no run, goes a long way across the stumps for a premeditated sweep. It's full outside off, C Sarath Kumar gets low but misses

Abhishek Tanwar to Suboth Bhati, 1 run, pretty full on off, driven to long-off

Abhishek Tanwar to Suboth Bhati, SIX, Bhati releases the pressure with a maximum! Good length outside off, slower ball, and he slogs hard across the line. Gets enough on it to clear deep midwicket

Abhishek Tanwar to C Sarath Kumar, 1 run, close to the blockhole on off, C Sarath Kumar steps across, goes deep in the crease and looks to flick it through the on-side. It pops up in the air off a leading edge and falls short of cover
