*** Day 1: Match started 30 minutes late because of damp outfield
conditions due to overnight rains.
*** Day 3
*** Kale was promoted because Sidhu has a dislocated finger.
*** Khoda retired when on 4 (hit on the helmet visor by a Ganesh
bouncer), and returned at the fall of the 2nd wicket.
*** Ganesh along with three Karnataka reserves have conjunctivitis.
