Outside off, pushed towards mid off. FOURTH WICKET MAIDEN OF THE MATCH!
Sri Lankan Angelo Perera walks in at number 5, replacing Manoj Tiwary.
OUT! LBW! Odisha have three in the third over! Three bowlers used in three overs and all three have struck. Laughlin, accurate as ever, pitched the ball on a good length, in line of off and middle stumps, Manoj Tiwary looked to flick, playing across the line but missed the ball. He was rapped on the pads and Billy Bowden raised his finger immediately on the appeal. But Tiwary, after a chat with his partner, went for the review. The replay showed the ball hitting the back pad, below the knee roll. And when Ball Tracker came, it projected the ball to be hitting the middle of middle stump! Irfan Pathan does some comic stuff for the crowd and just when the third umpire instructs Bowden to stay with his decision, joins the Kiwi in raising the crooked finger! Tiwary departs for 2 (9) and Manipal Tigers are 4/3, needing another 101 from 103 balls!

2.4
.
Almost two in two! Tiwary gets luck second time in a row. Fuller, outside off, MT is early into his flick and nearly spoons it straight to mid on. The ball lands just in front of Dilshan Munaweera.
2.3
.
Nearly. On a good length, outside off, moving away, Manoj looks to steer it towards third but misses. Nearly guided it into Levi's gloves.
2.2
.
Fuller in length, slower in pace, outside off, swinging away, Tiwary plays it a bit away from his body and mistimes his cover drive towards mid off.
2.1
.
So spin was there only for the first over. Irfan Pathan has gone back to pace and brings on Ben Laughlin. He starts off accurately, bowling it on a length, around off, Manoj Tiwary pushes it towards cover.

Around off, on a good length, watchfully defended. THIRD WICKET MAIDEN OF THE MATCH - first by Obus Pienaar, second by Rahul Shukla and now, by Vinay Kumar!
1.5
.
This ball was delivered after nearly 60 seconds post the previous ball. Because there was a cockroach or more of a grasshopper, which was fluttering on the pitch. Tiwary did not want it to get hurt so tried to push the insect away. When the ball was bowled, it was short and wide and was cut straight to point.
1.4
.
Around off, pushed towards cover.
Manipal Tigers used their impact player. Saurabh Tiwary has been called in at number 4 and Rahul Shukla has been subbed out.
OUT! DRAGGED ON! Well, there was a change in the field just before this ball and it has worked wonders for Odisha. Third man was brought up and mid on was pushed back. Vinay Kumar dropped it a tad short and the Zimbabwean instinctively went for the pull. But he made the same mistake committed by his opposition batters - not waiting for the ball to come onto the bat. He played early, the ball came late, took the inside edge and shattered the stumps. Solomon Mire departs for a 3-ball duck and Manipal Tigers are 4/2 after 1.3 overs, losing both their openers without any contribution! 101 more needed from 111 balls.
