Maharaja Trophy KSCA T20: Already assured of a spot in the semifinals, the Mysore Warriors notched their sixth victory in the Maharaja Trophy KSCA T20 with a clinical six-wicket triumph over the Mangaluru Dragons.

The M. Chinnaswamy Stadium bore witness to a commanding 107-run partnership between Karun Nair (64) and Karthik S.U. (69), which paved the way for the Warriors to comfortably chase down the target of 179 in just 18.4 overs. Despite K.V. Siddharth's earnest half-century for the Dragons, the combined efforts of K Gowtham (2/18), Karthik CA (2/27), and Manoj Bhandage (2/29) limited Mangaluru Dragons’ efforts with the bat.

In response to the Dragons, the Mysore Warriors' openers, Karthik C.A. (14) and Karthik S.U. (69) (impact player) managed 36 runs in the Power-play. Though behind the required run-rate both batsmen looked to be in form. Shreyas Gopal broke the 42-run stand in the seventh over, bringing Karun Nair (64) to the crease.
