That's it from an electric game of cricket between two excellent T20 sides. Anukul Roy's sharp allround performance winning the game for Jharkhand. Ninaad Dixit here signing off on behalf of scorer Asraj Khan. Stay tuned for more action from around the world.
8:12 PM IST, Local Time: Anukul Roy's allround brilliance (2/13 & 95*) has taken Jharkhand to 2 wins in as many games as they seal a 2-wicket victory in the final over against Karnataka at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad.
Winning the toss, Jharkhand elected to bowl and restricted Karnataka for 157/9 in 20 overs. Sushant Mishra picked up 3 wickets, Saurabh Shekhar and Roy played a wonderful hand with the ball as well.
Ishan Kishan got off to a flier scoring 15 in 7 before nicking one to the keeper off Vidyadhar Patil in the 2nd over of the chase. His opening partner Utkarsh Singh miscued against Vyshak Vijaykumar and perished in the very next over.
A bad shot from Kumar Kushagra saw him depart against Patil in the 4th over. A poor call from Anukul Roy had Virat Singh run out in the 6th over. 61/4 at the end of the powerplay, the game hanging in the balance.
In comes Shreyas Gopal bowling a tight spell alongside Praveen Dubey - the two legspinners putting the pressure. Robin Minz crumbled scoring just 7 runs. Anukul continued batting with intent picking up boundaries at regular interval and did not let the required rate to get out of hand.
Wickets kept falling at the other end as Patil picked up 3/45, Dubey claimed 2/23, Gopal 1/21 and Vyshak Vijaykumar 1/29. Roy played as a lone warrior and smashed all the bowlers to all parks in and out of the ground.
His unbeaten 95 off 58 balls comprised of 9 fours and 5 sixes with Ishan Kishan's 15 being the second best score, Anukul scoring more than 60% of the team's runs in a tense chase.

19.4 V Kaverappa to V Kumar
4 EDGED, IN THE AIR AND FOUR RUNS! Jharkhand win a stunning encounter by 2 wickets in the final over! Short of a length delivery outside the off stump. Vikas swings across to pull but gets an outside edge. It flies over the keeper into the vacant third man boundary! A fantastic chase from Jharkhand to win their second consecutive game of the tournament!
4 runs needed off 3 deliveries, Vikas Kumar on strike.
19.3 V Kaverappa to A Roy
1 Back of a length delivery angled back on the pads. Roy swings across and wears it on the thigh pad. Looks for a quick single and bumps into Kaverappa as he charges across the pitch to collect the ball. His bat is dropped on the pitch as the run is completed. The umpires are going upstairs as there is an appeal for obstructing the field. It's all happening here! Drama in Ahmedabad. TV umpire is checking the replays. GREEN LIGHT! NOT OUT! Anukul survives.
19.2 V Kaverappa to A Roy
0 Short and wide outside the off stump. Anukul lets it fly to the keeper. Very close to his head height but the umpire doesn't signal wide. One for the over!
19.1 V Kaverappa to V Kumar
1lb Around the wicket. Back of a length pitching outside the off stump. Vikas swings across and gets hit on the ribcage. Picks up a leg bye as the ball trickles in the off side. Kaverappa chass himself and throws at the batting end, Roy has dragged his bat in.
