Mysore Warriors stamped their authority on the cricketing season by securing a semi-final berth with a comprehensive 74-run triumph over Hubli Tigers in the Maharaja Trophy KSCA T20. Karun Nair stood out with an unbeaten 80, steering Mysore to a formidable 191/6 in their allocated overs.
Hubli Tigers started on a steady note during the powerplay despite losing two wickets. Key dismissals by Mysore's bowlers weakened Hubli's line-up, with J Suchith quickly removing Karthikeya KP and Dhanush Gowda sending Taha back to the pavilion. Star players KL Shrijith and Manish Pandey also fell cheaply, leaving Hubli reeling.
Manoj Bhandage's economical spell sealed Hubli's fate as they were restricted to 87/7. Smayan Srivastava and Dhanush Gowda cleaned up the tail, ending Hubli's innings at 117 in 18.4 overs. Initially, Mysore's Karthik SU and Karun Nair provided a solid start, which was bolstered by late fireworks from Nair and J Suchith, ensuring a competitive score.
