We have our finalists - Haryana v Rajasthan. Two teams who haven't won this competition. Two teams that are yet to lose a game. Two teams that deserve to be in the final. That should be a cracking contest on Saturday. Join us for that. Until next time, goodbye and stay safe..
Deepak Hooda | Player of the Match: This is a team effort. It was a good knock and the way Karan batted, it was important. The pressure will always be there but you have to plan according to the situation.
Mayank Agarwal: We batted really well to get to 280 and started well with the ball, but credit to Hooda for taking the game away. There was a tennis ball like kind of bounce on the wicket and they just kept counterattacking. Both of them batted phenomenonally to get us to that score. I just stuck to my plans, backed my bowlers to get the job done but every time they counterattacked and some times you have to credit the opposition. We need to learn from each game and keep getting better.
21:13 Local Time, 15:43 GMT: Karnataka had an excellent start with the ball, picking up the openers in the first two overs and even adding Lomror inside the powerplay. But that's all the joy they had as Deepak Hooda ran riot at one end and just took the game away from them. The Rajasthan skipper took his time, saw off the new ball spell and upped the ante when spinners were introduced. He hardly put a foot wrong and had an able partner in Karan Lamba at the other end. Karnataka were lost for ideas as batting became easier under lights and their bowlers didn't get any assistance once the ball stopped swinging. Mayank tried all his options but apart from Koushik none of the bowlers could give him any sort of control or break the 255-run partnership. But it has to be said that they were beaten by one of the best innings from Hooda. Presentations coming up..
