4.2 to KL Rahul, Ashwin has the last laugh. Skips down the track again but Ashwin shortens his length. but Rahul decides to go with the shot nonetheless. Fails to time it and the long-on comes in to take a low, tumbling catch. 39/1 4.3 to MA Agarwal, Mayank goes first ball! Ashwin on a hat-trick. Carrom ball doing the trick for him. Was a length ball around off, Mayank closed the face of the bat early and the ball popped up towards the bowler who took a couple of steps forward and pouhced it with glee. 39/2

9.5 to D Padikkal, plays down the wrong line! Was an innocuous length ball around off, Padikkal was looking to work it on the leg side but misses it altogether. The off stump has been flattened. 87/3
Murugan Ashwin	3	0	33	2	11.00	5	2	2	1	0
17.3 to RP Kadam, back of a length on leg stump, and he skips down the ground before whipping a shot to deep midwicket. Two men get under in the deep and Natarajan does some nifty footwork near the boundary line to complete a rather tricky catch. 152/4 19.6 to KK Nair, full and wide outside off, and turning further away. He goes for an inside out drive, but finds the fielder at long off. Karnataka finish on 180 for 5. 180/5

2.6 to C Hari Nishaanth, length ball outside off, goes for the pull again, aiming towards midwicket this time but the ball was going away from him. Ends up skying it towards the left of mid-on where Pandey settles under it. 26/1 17.1 to B Aparajith, Pandey's under it! Length ball, getting big on the batsman, but he can't resist to go for the big shot. Looks to loft it over long on, but mistimed completely. The captain makes no mistake. 151/5
Krishnappa Gowtham	4	0	31	1	7.75	7	4	0	0	0
9.6 to Washington Sundar, castles him with the arm ball. Flatter at the stumps, Washington was caught on the back foot, looked to push at it but missed. Karnataka are well in truly back. 80/4

4.1 to M Shahrukh Khan, starts with a googly, but too short. Shahrukh goes for the pull but finds Suchith at the deep square leg boundary. He's annoyed with himself. 37/2
Jagadeesha Suchith	4	0	38	1	9.50	4	2	2	0	0
8.6 to KD Karthik, length ball around off, Karthik comes down the track but Suchith bowls it slower and just outside off, Karthik ends up playing down the wrong line, looking to push at the ball and walks past it. An easy stumping for Rahul. 76/3
