Right then, that is it from this game. The TNPL 2025 action continues as we have a game lined up between the Lyca Kovai Kings and the SKM Salem Spartans. The toss for this game will commence soon so do switch tabs and enjoy the coverage of that game. Cheers!
Vijay Shankar is the Player of the Match for his three-wicket haul and a knock of 28 runs!
Earlier in the match, the Siechem Madurai Panthers managed to put together a total of 156. They were off to a shaky start but did well in the middle overs. A late surge from Gurjapneet Singh added some valuable runs to their total. Atheeq Ur Rahman was the top scorer for the Panthers with a fine 41, while Murugan Ashwin chipped in with a valuable 38. For the Super Gillies, Vijay Shankar was the pick of the bowlers, claiming 3 wickets for just 23 runs, and M Silambarasan supported well with 2 wickets for 19 runs.
The Siechem Madurai Panthers' bowlers put in a strong effort, but ultimately couldn't withstand the Chepauk Super Gillies' calculated chase in the shortened game. Key contributions came from Gurjapneet Singh, Surya Anand, and Murugan Ashwin's crucial wicket of Narayan Jagadeesan, but it wasn't enough to secure the win.
Chepauk Super Gillies' chase got off to a slow start, with openers Mokit Hariharan and K Aashiq facing disciplined bowling from the Panthers. A swarm of bees interrupted play, and the target was revised to 114 from 14 overs. Baba Aparajith and Vijay Shankar took charge after the break, with Shankar's experience proving crucial. Despite a wicket falling, Shankar's steady performance guided CSG to victory, with the team leveling the scores with just two balls to spare.
What a nail-biting encounter we just witnessed, filled with unexpected twists and turns, including an unprecedented bug attack that halted play! In the end, the Chepauk Super Gillies emerged victorious, chasing down a revised target with remarkable composure. Their disciplined batting, particularly in the latter half of the innings, proved crucial. The Siechem Madurai Panthers, despite a spirited effort with both bat and ball, ultimately fell short, unable to defend their total after the game was truncated.
