    Through the course of his knock, Karthik also went past the 550-run mark. Trotters would be ruing its decision to bowl first as Nelson scored its runs at more than four an over and still has eight wickets remaining. Later in the day, all-rounder Shoaib Md. Khan 74 batting (118b, 7x4, 1x6) and Swapnil Singh 62 batting (84b, 7x4, 2x6) further dented Trotters’ morale by raising 133 runs for the unbroken third wicket. 

    In a low-scoring match, Vijay CC, after being bowled out for 219, reduced Young Stars to 99 for nine. Vijay’s left-arm spinner Rahil Shah claimed his fourth five-wicket haul of the season as he took six for 41 to spell doom for Young Stars. Earlier, another left-arm spinner S Mohan Prasath of Young Stars also finished with a six-wicket haul to restrict Vijay to 219. Skipper B Aparajith 51 (78b, 5x4, 1x6) and Himmat Singh 62 (94b, 5x4, 2x6) were the two batsmen who batted with composure to help their team cross 200.
