PLAYER OF THE MATCH
Valliappan Yudheeswaran

That is it from another game in the TNPL. Easy win for LKK. CSG will be disappointed but would want to bounce back quickly. We will see you soon as well. Bye bye for now...

Shahrukh Khan: The toss was crucial. The wicket was better in the second innings. The wicket was sticky in the first innings. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't in T20s. Valliappan Yudheeswaran has grown in the last three years. The way Suresh Kumar has grown as a player is brilliant.

Narayan Jagadeesan: The wicket seamed a little at the start. The toss is not in our control. We could have had better intent. You have to be a little aggressive in T20 cricket. Extra 40-45 runs were needed with the bat.

Valliappan Yudheeswaran, Player of the Match: I planned to bowl a few dot balls. I dedicate this to my mom and dad.

Suresh Kumar: The coaches are giving us confidence. The wicket seemed to seam a little. Very easy to bat with Sai. Just keep rotating the strike. The bowler did make a difference today.

22:38 Local Time, 17:08 GMT, 22:38 IST: 127 was never a tough score. And Sai Sudharsan ensured the total was chased down with elan. Suresh Kumar also batted well. He missed his fifty. But set up the chase. Valliappan Yudheeswaran set it up with the ball as he snared up three wickets. The conditions were a little tough when CSG batted but they eased out a lot when they were defending. Nellai had defeated LKK in the last game but they had bounced back well.
