Reduced to an eight-overs-a-side contest, Hubli Tigers posted 91\/6, thanks largely to Manohar's breathtaking late assault.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
The Tigers were in trouble at 27\/2 after five overs when rain interrupted play. Kruthik Krishna (23 off 19) and Hardik Raj (2 0ff 4) both retired out, leaving the innings in a precarious position. <\/p>\r\n\r\n
Manohar smashed two fours and six sixes in a whirlwind knock. The former Gujarat Titans and Sunrisers Hyderabad batter took a particular liking to Vyshak Vijaykumar, hammering 6, 4, 6, 6 in the sixth over before finishing with 6, 6, 4, 6 in the eighth. He eventually fell off the final ball of the innings after propelling the Tigers to a competitive total.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
The knock was a timely reminder of Manohar's big-hitting prowess, having struck 52 sixes for the Shivamogga Lions during the 2024 season, including three innings featuring nine maximums.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Ritesh Bhatkal was the top performer for the Warriors, picking up two wickets for just 10 runs.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
The washout leaves Hubli Tigers fifth on the table with six points from seven matches, having registered two wins, three losses, and two no results. Mysore Warriors remain sixth with five points from seven matches, with two wins, four losses, and one no result.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
