Kurnool: It was entertainment that was on par with the ongoing Indian Premier League, both in terms of the game and providing value to the spectators.

Sudeep starred while top scoring with a quick-fire 80 runs in the summit clash. However, Blue Riders found the target too hot to handle and could only manage 104 runs for the loss of seven wickets.A In earlier showdowns, Yellow downed Green by 27 runs while Blue Riders thrashed Red by 10 wickets to qualify for the title clash.

Eventually, there was no winner per se because the actors had come to provide entertainment. Needless to say, each of the participants accomplished it to noticeable levels.
