Suman Mohanty and KGFisbetterthanRRR are at the crease. Mohanty is on strike. Manish will bowl for the Titans.

Ball 0.1 - Manish Reddy to Suman Mohanty, Two Runs, The fielder dives and makes a half stop. Just two..

It's a yorker from Manish, Mohanty sends this away to deep mid-wicket, just a run. Oh there is a direct-hit and they get an extra run for the deflection.

Ball 0.2 - Manish Reddy to Suman Mohanty, No Ball, Free Hit coming up

View attachment 270704
Beamer from Manish. Umpired signals it as a no ball. An extra run and an extra ball with freehit.

Ball 0.2 - Manish Reddy to Suman Mohanty, FOUR runs, punches the ball on the up and square of the wicket for a four. That was on a length and batsman drove it through the off-side for a four

The idea to bowl short into the pitch is perfect but you can't offer width with third man in. Mohanty reaches out and guides it between backward point and short third man for a boundary.

Ball 0.3 - Manish Reddy to Suman Mohanty, FOUR runs, superb shot! That's the class of Suman Mohanty.

View attachment 270706
Oh what happened there? Short slower delivery, Mohanty plays a normal lofted back foot drive. Seemed like just one run to long-on. What a timing! What a shot!

Ball 0.4 - Manish Reddy to Suman Mohanty, Three Runs, noooo is the shout from Suman Mohanty after offering a solid back foot defence

View attachment 270707
Dancing shoes on to force the bowler off the line, Manish tries to drop it short but Mohanty covered the line so well to have a good range and he lofted this over the non-striker's head for the bounday but the filder was chasing the ball and saved one run for the Titans.

Ball 0.5 - Manish Reddy to KGFisbetterthanRRR, FOUR runs, would you believe this? Bloke has played a text book front foot lofted cover drive in the final over of a T20 game when people usually lose shape looking swing hard.

The line, the line! Short into the wicket, but fine leg is in and he bowls leg side. KGFisbetterthanRRR delays the pull to get it finer to the left of the man at 45 and Boys have got the runs they wanted for this super over.

Ball 0.6 - Manish Reddy to KGFisbetterthanRRR, SIX !, big full toss. Oh thank you very much. KGFisbetterthanRRR swings across the line, doesn't find the middle of the bat but he doesn't care.

SIX, the shot he wants previous ball! Front leg out of way and highhhh into the night sky. Crunching sound of the ball hitting the bat from the Boys vice captain gets the crowd roaring. A bit more fuller from Manish and he disappears.
​

The Boys     24/0  
Suman Mohanty 13(5)
KGFisbetterthanRRR  10(2)

Manish Reddy  0/24

The Titans need 25 runs from 6 balls to win the match.

Gokul Raj and TSPrathik are at the crease. Gokul Raj is on strike. Ted Lasso will bowl for the Boys.

Ball 0.1 - Ted Lasso to Gokul Raj, FOUR runs, superb shot! That's the class of Gokul Raj.

View attachment 270713
What timing! Length delivery outside off stump, Gokul stays leg-side of the ball and just guides it, but it rockets past backward point for four as if he smashed that hard.

Ball 0.2 - Ted Lasso to Gokul Raj, One Run, back of a length outside off, Gokul Raj jabbed away through the covers

View attachment 270714
Short and outside off stump, Gokul decides to fetch this pull and hit towards mid-wicket.

Ball 0.3 - Ted Lasso to Tarak Sai Prathik, Three Runs, oh almost sucked him into a poke away from the body. Tarak Sai Prathik was leaning forward to drive away from the body, took his bat away last second

View attachment 270715
Moves across and tries to launch it over the ropes, slices it high but it clears the man running back from the ring, lands in front of deep point.

Ball 0.4 - Ted Lasso to Gokul Raj, One Run, Gokul Raj fails to clip the ball away and the ball goes off the pads for a single

View attachment 270716
Oh man! Should have gone for a bigge. short and outside off stump, Gokul decides to fetch this pull and hit towards mid-wicket.

Ball 0.5 - Ted Lasso to Tarak Sai Prathik, SIX !, Tarak Sai Prathik dances down and slams that over long-off for a sixer. Beautiful use of the feet, got to the pitch of the ball and slammed it big. The Tarak Sai Prathik has finally broken the shackles

View attachment 270717
Too full, too full and all the way. Full and in the slot, width offered too, TSP easily lofts this over long-off. Lasso showed how slow into the wicket is difficult fo the batter.

Ball 0.6 - Ted Lasso to Tarak Sai Prathik, SIX !, Waltzes down the wicket, meets the ball on a length and swats the bowler into the wide long-on stands. Clean as a whistle

View attachment 270718
And he has smacked this slower delivery over square leg. Was predictable from Lasso because he wanted to make use of the slowness of this surface and TSP was ready. But this wasn't enough for the Titans to seal the match, as the boys beat them by 3 runs.
