That's it from the coverage of this game. We will be back tomorrow with more TNPL action from Salem. Stick around to our network for all other cricketing actions across the globe and across formats. For now, this is Ayan Chatterjee signing off on behalf of my co-commentator Saptak Sanyal alongside scorer/analyst Yogesh Kumar. Stay safe, happy, and cool. Goodnight and CHEERS!  
Shahrukh Khan(Lyca Kovai Kings Captain and Player of the Match) : "In cricket, mistakes happen. But how far you are doing the wrong thing that matters the most. I think we came back really strong.

Mohamed is a experienced campaigner. He had done it for Tamil Nadu and he did that today. He is a guy who always steps up in crunch moments. The wicket was slow and Ajith Ram was bowling slow. The idea was to stay in the wicket but unfortunately I got out with two overs remaining.

Time for the post-match presentations.
Vijay Shankar (I Dream Tiruppur Tamizhans Captain): "It is difficult to take but very happy with the way we played. Lots of positives - the way Raheja and Mohamed Ali played was amazing. Really happy with the way the boys played and looking forward to the future. If you put your heart into it, the results sometimes doesn’t matter.

I think 2 overs 13 to win, we should have looked for a boundary. We can always say we should have done this or done that, but at the end of the day it is about holding your nerve.

Captaincy gives me that extra responsibility which I always like, enjoying every moment."   
10:35 PM IST AND LOCAL TIME: What a game we have had here in Salem. A game that looked like going Tiruppur's way has been stolen in the last over by the defending champions Lyca Kovai Kings. They come out of nowhere and win by 1 run to make it 2 wins out of 2 games. The defending champions always find a way to win and are now on a 9-match winning streak.

S Mohamed Ali looked good for his 35 off 20 balls. They needed 13 off 12 balls at one stage, but failed to get over the line. 6 extras given by the fielding side as they ended with 159/8 in 20 overs falling one run short of the target.

It's a run out as the keeper hits the bulls eye at the keeper's end. The batter is short of his ground and is a run out. The Lyca Kovai Kings win by 1 run. 
19.6 M Mohammed to S Ajith
W WICKET!!!! What a victory for Lyca Kovai Kings!!!!!!! They have pulled out a stunner here at the SCF Ground! Mohammed comes from round the wicket now. Good length delivery at the outside off stump line. Ajith swings his bat but misses. Ganesh, the impact sub sets off for the bye run to take the game to super over but Suresh Kumar had some other ideas. He collects the ball and breaks the stump with a direct throw with Ganesh nowhere near the crease. Lyca Kovai Kings have won it by a thin margin of just 1 run.
A boundary against the run of play and now they need 2 off 1 ball. We could be in for a super over. The two batters talk to each other. The  bowler is talking to Shahrukh Khan. It's all about holding the nerves.
