Nihal Ullal (Shivamogga Lions Captain): "Definitely, the momentum is on our side. Everyone played well. He (S Shivaraj) is one man, you can imagine if both of them (Shivaraj and Abhinav Manohar) start batting together, lot of teams will be in trouble.
Yeah, it was missing (bowlers clicking in unison) in the first couple of games. The bowlers have done well. Kaushik has done well up front and then the spinners did their job."

22:38 IST and Local Time | Shivamogga Lions have registered a fine victory by finishing the game in style with a boundary. They have defeated Mangaluru Dragons by 3 wickets and 8 balls to go.
Batting first, Mangaluru Dragons were off to a very shoddy start as Macneil Noronha and Rohan Patil were slow and shaky to counter Vasuki Koushik. The game changed when Nikin Jose started to find the boundaries against Anand Doddamani. KV Siddharth(9) and Lankesh KS(3) got out cheaply putting their team in dire straits. Nikin however found a way to get a go as he registered a good partnership with his skipper Shreyas Gopal. Jose played a fine knock of 57 runs off 37 balls with 7 fours and a maximum. Shreyas Gopal scored 19 from 20 balls. Darshan MB and Lochan Gowda batted firmly in the slog overs. Gowda scored 19 off 8 and Darshan scored 18 from 12 to help their team to post 152/7 from 20 overs.
Vasuki Koushik, Anand Doddamani, HS Sharath, Avinash D, Ashok D and Hardik Raj- every bowler used by Nihal Ullal took one wicket each.
Coming to defend the run, Abhilash Shetty shook the Lions' openers. Nihal Ullal struggled to score a 14-ball 13 and Dheeraj Mohan scored 5 from 10 balls. Dheeraj Mohan and Abhinav Manohar batted sensibly after the openers got out. Mohan contributed 37 runs from 34 balls with 6 boundaries. Hardik Raj came to bat and he got off the mark with a boundary but in the very next ball, Advith Shetty knocked him over for just 4 runs.
But Abhinav Manohar kept the chase on. He played out Shreyas Gopal and when Advith Shetty came to bowl his final over, Manohar tonked him for a hat-trick of maximums to skyrocket the run rate. That over was the turning point of the run chase. Bharath Dhuri got out for 5 in the next over. Abhinav Manohar got out in the 17th over bowled by Darshan for 43 and that was a big moment in the game. He hit 5 maximums to decorate his innings. But Shivraj S came to bat next and he instantly hit a boundary and a maximum to take the chase going. Paras Arya bowled a fine 18th over and took the wicket of Ashok D. But Shivraj started the penultimate over with a maximum and in that over, the game was completed by Avinash D with a boundary. Shivraj remained unbeaten on 24 off 9 balls.
Advith Shetty and Paras Arya took 2 wickets each. Abhilash Shetty, Darshan MB and Shreyas Gopal took a wicket each but their efforts were not enough for Mangalore to get the victory.

18.4 D MB to A D
4 FOUR!!! That's the winning runs. Shivamogga Lions get the win by 3 wickets and it is their second win on the bounce. Darshan bowls it full and outside off. Avinash squeezes it past the point fielder and gets it away to the fence. The Lions are still mathematically alive in the semi-finals race with this win.
TV umpire is checking the boundary as Lochan Gowda was too close to the cushion while saving the ball. It looks close. It is a single only.
18.3 D MB to S S
1 Full and outside off. Shivaraj looks to go downtown again but doesn't get the timing right on this occasion. Get it off the toe end and it lands well short of the long off fielder. Lochan Gowda with a good save near the ropes. A boundary check now. This looks close and may be called a four. Gowda's toe may have touched the boundary cushions as he tried to parry the ball back in play. The TV umpire finally makes up his mind and gives it only as a single.
Too easy for Shivraj. He hits another maximum to take the equation down to 5 off 10. Darshan should desperately go for the wicket.
18.2 D MB to S S
6 SIXXX!!!!! Shivaraj wants to finish this in this over. Full ball outside off. In the hitting arc of Shivraj. He bends his back knee to get under it and muscles it over long for a huge maximum. Just a hit away now the Lions.
Darshan is trying to bowl wide yorker and missing to keep it inside the line.
18.2 D MB to S S
WD WIDE!!!! Again looks for the wide yorker but his mark by a distance. It is outside the wide guideline and is called a wide by the umpire.
18.2 D MB to S S
WD WIDE!!!! Pressure telling on Darshan MB. Bowls it full but too wide outside the off stump. It goes way past the wide guideline and has been called a wide.
Shivraj takes the pace off with his strong backfoot game and he starts the over with a maximum.
