Batting first, Tigers posted 203 on the board, on the back of Mohammed Taha’s 72-run knock. In response, Ravikumar Samarth did well with his impressive innings of 63 off 35, but Warriors could only finish on 195/8. In fact, Taha received the Player of the Tournament award for his run tally of 448 runs at a strike-rate of 173.64.
Last month saw the auction taking place at M. Chinnaswamy Stadium. The keeper-batter L. R. Chethan emerged as the most expensive player, as he was procured by the Blasters for ₹8.6 lakh. The veteran players, Shreyas Gopal (₹7.60 lakh, Dragons), K. Gowtham (₹7.4 lakh, Warriors) also received a handsome amount in the auction.
