Full commentary
Well thanks for all the comments and feedback, we'll be back tomorrow to see what Sehwag and Kohli have in store against Umesh Yadav and Co. Have a good evening. Ciao ciao.
Vinay Kumar saves the day or Vinay Kumar almost gives it away! Depends on what way you look at it. But Blues have won - the margin is not too big after scoring that mammoth score - but they have won, and they are now in the final. The batting has been exhilarating in the match. Yuvraj and Nayar made hay during the first innings during an assault that just happened to be the difference. But this is India, the bowling makes sure no target is ever safe. They do it at the international stage, and they do the same at the national stage. Bhuvneshwar, Umesh, Vinay, bowlers who should be controlling these overs, end up being the culprits. Full marks to the Reds lower order - Jadhav, Jaggi, Nadeem, Umesh - for taking the fight till the end.
Satz: "This very much sums up the standards of our international bowlers! And we can't scream that our heroes are back to form on hitting these bowlers. But one thing is so sure that Yusuf is no good a player for even Challengers trophy."

slower delivery, the batsman slaps it towards long on where Piyush Chawla runs in, dives forwards and rolls, but can't hold on to that catch
John Paul: ""Eventhough India Red falls short of 10-20 runs to the target, the chase was an interesting one making many follow this match, considering the fact once people followed only international matches. Good to see comments pouring as well"."
