00:00It's a beautiful morning here in Bengaluru and we are at the Chinnaswamy Stadium for the IVFC Bank
00:06to leap trophy 2024. It's the final day of match number one. India A against India B.
00:15321, India A conceding a lead, 231 bowled out. Saimi picking up three, Mukesh three,
00:24Sai Kishore two, and reply India B led by a terrific half century from Vishapad.
00:33Good knock by surprise, 150 for six, leading by 240 runs.
00:48Sai Kishore will be the man on strike.
00:54Hmm, good delivery to begin with.
01:02Big big appeal and Sai Kishore's decided to walk. There he goes, line and link,
01:09again feeling outside the line of the body was Sai Kishore, pointed to Shubman Gill.
01:14Oh, cleans him up, going through the gate, what a delivery that was.
01:19Akash Deep going through the defences of Washington Sundar.
01:24This is something you like to see over and over again on the replays. The eighth ticket down for
01:29India B. And Esh Dayal comfortably getting off the mark. Head down the ground, presenting the
01:40full face of the bat. Successive boundaries for Esh Dayal. And that's hammered away to the offside.
01:49And another head over the top here from Esh Dayal. He's not going to stay quiet,
02:10he's looking for runs. He gets another boundary.
02:14And this time, even better, he's on fire.
02:20This time through the offside, Shubman Gill getting underneath it, and he parches it.
02:26Very good field, Shubman Gill, and that's the end of the India B innings. 184 all out
02:34in the 42nd over, and they have an overall lead of 275. And 184 is all they can do.
02:44Leaving India a target of 275 to win this game outright.
02:50275 runs to get six points out of this game. You can get 70 if you can do it for no loss,
02:56but it will be a tall order.
03:33Ball has clearly taken the bat.
03:44Yes, he's held the catch. Ready with my decision for the big screen.
03:52Simply stunning.
03:54As you could watch this shot from Shubman Gill.
04:16This will go all the way. On purpose, using the pace of the ball. A little bit of room
04:22opening the face in control. He's taking the aggressive method, that's the way he plays.
04:35There he goes again. Mighty, mighty blow. 275, no problem he says.
04:45Aggression all around, they know they've got a huge wicket. He's gone for 31 of just 18, 51 for 2.
04:54And here too, K. L. Rao will get runs. Look at the timing, he let the game come and used his wrists right under his head.
05:07Straightforward catch and he's a very good slipper, Nitish Reddy.
05:15Does well to play it on top of the bounce, finds the gap as well, another boundary.
05:52End of Gill for 21, 75 for 3, India A.
06:10End of Jurel, fast bowler.
06:52He did an all-out and then he lost 4 wickets himself.
06:58Testing times for the batters. Switching ends, 431. The two opening batters in number three
07:06came out playing some shots.
07:14First ball, Tanush Kotyan, Mukesh Kumar hit the straps and that's an edge.
07:18Little bit of a loose shot for the first ball after lunch and he will have to perish.
07:48Loosen up, you don't bowl this to Dubey, who's in prime form.
08:01Moshir takes another brilliant catch.
08:04Looking to work leg side, I wonder why. Should have played a lot straighter, Shivam Dubey is gone.
08:13Yes, trademark K. L. Rahul shot.
08:18Gorgeous, that's the reason why he wanted that single.
08:25Now he wants to hog the strike, he's just about getting his eye in and it will be showtime.
08:49He took his time, he tried to build a long partnership with his partner and it was a miss.
08:57Well played, K. L. Rahul.
09:02With a maiden over, Yash Dayal's over is over.
09:07India A has played 36 overs so far. 143 runs are needed to win this match.
09:14And we're waiting outside.
09:16Please take your caps so that I can say that the tea time has begun.
09:22132 for 6 and they need another 143 runs to get the 6 points and win this game.
09:29So it'll be Sai Kishore to start proceedings.
09:33Slip back for short leg, forward short leg.
09:35Predominantly a leg side field, the fielders on the offside, this is a slip, deep point and mid-off.
10:06Rahul gone for a well-made 57-41, 7.
10:20He's made decent enough contact.
10:24He'll get a 4.
10:30And in between he likes to play some shots like this.
10:32He's taken the aerial route and he's cleared the boundary.
10:37That's a huge 6.
10:41I'll come back to that.
10:42That's hit away into the onside.
10:44That's a huge blow and he's a powerful hitter is Aakash Deep.
10:51That's it straight down the ground and it's gone flat and straight into the side screen.
11:02This was for 1470 for 8.
11:13That's smashed away through the offside.
11:19And there it is, Sai Kishore coming underneath it.
11:23He misjudged it, he was running back and then he realized it's not carrying to him
11:29and he had to sprint in front.
11:34Deflection and a lovely take this from Rishabh Pant and that went off the glove.
11:42End of Abhishek Khan, a second wicket for Saini.
11:58Oh, that's gone to the boundary like a trace of bullet.
12:03He really smacks a punch, doesn't he?
12:09That's a huge hit.
12:13That's another one that's hit off the screws in the stands.
12:25I think this is going to be mighty close.
12:28Aakash Deep had no idea where the ball was and Musheer was very quick.
12:37It's nice and slow.
12:38Yes, absolutely.
12:38Yes, the wicket is down.
12:39There's a run out here.
12:40Shot off the screen.
12:41Oh, there was a bouncer too.
12:42Aakash didn't know where the ball went.
12:44And India B has won this match with 77 runs.
12:49Congratulations to each other for the fielding side.
12:51They've fought hard.
12:54Six points it is for India B.
