Karnataka’s comeback session! After reeling at a precarious 57/4, Karnataka staged a remarkable recovery to reach 144/4, showing immense grit to get their innings back on track. The collapse began in the fading minutes before lunch with the loss of KL Rahul, which triggered a frantic slide as Devdutt Padikkal, Karun Nair, and Ravichandran Smaran departed for almost nothing. Facing a crisis, Mayank Agarwal delivered a standout performance under pressure, anchoring the side with one of his finest knocks. Alongside Shreyas Gopal, he forged a vital 87-run partnership that stabilized the innings.
