Shivamogga Strikers vs Belagavi Panthers, T20, 16th Match, August 29, 2018 - Match Info

That is it from a single header in KPL 2018. But there is more action that you can follow. Switch tabs to witness the thriller unfolding between Ireland and Afghanistan.

Stuart Binny: I think they showed some courage. Wickets got us back in this game. Pretty pleased with the boys. I think we can feel much better. In this format if you miss your chances you are going to go down.

Aniruddha Joshi (speaking in place of Mithun): I think we got the score we wanted. All the bowlers also bowled well but the catches we dropped hurt us really bad. You have to take your catches. If you drop catches, it will hurt you and it hurt us for sure.

Dikshanshu Negi: I think it was a crucial knock. We wanted to continue with the same momentum from the last game. I think this game should give us the momentum going forward.

Dikshanshu Negi set up the platform with a well paced fifty and cameos from Binny and Avinash took Belagavi past the finish line. That is how the chase panned out. It looked a little stiff for Belagavi after their 10-over mark but things became easier as the dew came down. Dropped catches of Binny and Avinash also did not help the case for Shivamogga. So, Shivamogga Lions won't be in contention for a top four spot.

18.1 Mithun to Sharath, 1 run, clipped away into the on-side

17.6 Abilash Shetty to Avinash D, FOUR, Another drop. And he might have parried it for a six as well. Joshi was the fielder at long-on who went to his left and got both hands to it but failed to latch on to it. The ball landed just inside the ropes. So, that is a four. 12 more needed

17.5 Abilash Shetty to Sharath, 1 run, pushed back to the left of the bowler, who fumbles a bit and allows the single to be taken

17.4 Abilash Shetty to Avinash D, 1 run, Dhuri at deep square drops it! Huge drop. That was short, the batsman pulled it straight to the man at deep square leg who makes a mess of it. The fielding continues to be a liability for Shivamogga
