Live - Mukesh Kumar, Akash Deep bundle out J&K for 63

After Shami and Akash Deep, it's Mukesh Kumar's turn to get into the thick of things. He has figures of 6-0-16-4 in his first spell as J&K are now 62 for 9 in 20 overs.

Meanwhile, unbeaten Karnataka have started well against Uttarakhand, with openers Mayank Agarwal and Devdutt Padikkal in a century stand as they consolidate slowly. Padikkal's rich vein of form continues. After scores of 22, 124 and 147, he's now 66*. Mayank is on 61; Karnataka 131/0 in the 26th.

Pukhraj Mann is coming into this game on the back of three rich knocks: 110, 126 and 48. And now, up against Punjab, his former team, Mann has to revive a floundering innings as Himachal have reduced them to 22 for 4 in the ninth over.

Mohammed Shami continues to be among the wickets. Having already picked up six wickets in three matches, he's added two more into his bag in his first spell as J&k are in real trouble at 7 for 3 in the 7th over. At the other end, Shami has been backed up superbly by Akash Deep.

J&k tried to promote M Ashwin up to No. 3 in a bid to lengthen their batting, but he's been dismissed for a six-ball duck. Onus on Paras Dogra and Shubham Khajuria to drive this innings forward now.

This is a massively important clash for both teams, who have two wins in three matches.
