A thriller! Poiyamozhi does it in style with only 2 deliveries left and 7 runs required, steps in to hit a six and then pick up a single. Wonderful knock from Ajitesh 112 from 60 balls, who did the most in the run chase. Nellai Royal Kings win by 4 wickets.

Hari: "This is why TNPL is the best State T20 league in India!"

Thanks for tuning in, do join us for more TNPL after a break on Saturday. A double-header on Sunday. That is it from Sudeep and this is Binoy George signing off.
