Maharaja Trophy KSCA T20: Hubli Tigers were back to winning ways as they defeated Bengaluru Blasters in an unprecedented triple Super Over thriller to complete their sixth victory of the Maharaja Trophy KSCA T20 here on Friday. Manvanth Kumar was the standout performer, contributing a quickfire 28, taking 4-33, and delivering match-winning exploits in the third super over.

After both teams finished their innings at 164 all out and remained deadlocked after the first two Super Overs, Manvanth Kumar ensured Hubli’s victory by striking a four off the final ball of the third Super Over, sealing a nail-biting win for the Tigers.

Earlier in the day, Bengaluru’s Lavish Kaushal logged the first five-wicket haul of the season to help bowl out Hubli Tigers for 164. Mayank Agarawal’s (54) half-century would also go in vain.
