Full commentary
That's it from us from Qualifier 1, as Kovai thumped Tiruppur in a chase of 201. But join Shashwat Kumar for our continued coverage of the TNPL, as we head towards the final few matches. Until then, good night and take care!
Sai Sudharsan is the Player of the Match for his unbeaten 123.
10.43pm Kovai needed 71 runs from the remaining 30 balls; they got them in 23 deliveries. Sudharsan, on 64 off 39 balls at that stage, finished on 123* from 56 - a total of nine fours and sixes each in his ruthless knock. It almost felt that he was angry, and he wanted to destroy the ball. He was given two lives too, but clubbed boundaries for fun to make the Tiruppur bowlers look ordinary. Mukilesh hit 48* off 31 balls, as their stand was worth 148* in 68 deliveries. Meanwhile, Sudharsan now has the highest individual score in TNPL.
