The Tigers took on Texmoda TKCC Royals in their second game and were once again sent in to bat by the opposition. Mukesh Khetan got TKCC off to an exciting start by claiming 2 wickets in the first 2 balls of the game. He returned with another wicket in his 2ndover and Tigers were in dire straits at 4 for 3. Then followed one of the best partnerships seen in the league as Indonesian skipper Muhaddis & Ahmad Ramdoni fought back with a brilliant 131 run stand to bring the Tigers roaring back into the game. Despite a few more wickets to Swaroop, Maneesh & Poonam Bumb, the Tigers managed to finish on a competitive 204 runs in their 35 overs.
Texmoda TKCC Royals started off cautiously against some good bowling by Gede Darma Arta but his wickets of the openers opened up things for Tigers. Fernandes Nato and Gamantika kept up the pressure and kept chipping away with regular wickets. Rajesh Santhanam held up one end well until he perished to the guiles of Gamantika. The Tigers keeper Ramdoni had a field day with 4 dismissals and the run-rate pressure got a pile of wickets at the end despite a good fight by Maneesh Tripathi.
