Y Prithvi to P Roy
WICKET! Short of a length on the stumps, Roy just about brings the bat down and directs it to the right of the keeper. Meanwhile, Raju had come out of the crease which made KS Bharat to run across quickly and fire a direct-hit at the batter's end. We will go upstairs to check the run-out appeal. The TV umpire has a good look at the replay and signals the 'Red Light'. So, Odisha have been bowled out for 118 while Andhra Pradesh get their second win in a row.
A direct hit from Bharat at the keeper's end. TV umpire is summoned for a run out check!! This is close! Mighty close! Pappu Roy is just short of the crease!! Red light is turned on!!! Andhra Pradesh have won this game by 66 runs!

ANDR won by 66 runs
2:13 PM IST and Local Time : Andhra Pradesh have got a massive victory over Odisha by a margin of 66 runs. This victory will massively boost their net run rate and Odisha will be looking to find a way to comeback in the next game.
Odisha won the toss and sent Andhra Pradesh to bat first. Andhra got off to a good start as their opening stand fetched them with 62 runs from 45 legal balls. Ashwin Hebbar was the aggressor while his partner KS Bharat was taking his time. Hebbar got out for 39 off 26 balls with 4 fours and 2 sixes. Bharat was then joined by his skipper Ricky Bhui. Bharat had a mixed day with the bat. At times, he timed the ball really well but mostly he found it hard to get a going. Bharat scored 42 off 37 balls.
Ricky Bhui top scored for Andhra with his 47 and Shaik Rasheed played a good cameo off 24 runs from 12 balls. The lower order failed with the bat as the Odisha bowlers made a good comeback. KV Sasikanth did well to score 12 off 9 and propelled his team to 184/7 at the end of the 20th over.
For Odisha, Biplap Samantray, the skipper took 3 wickets for 20 runs in his 4 overs. Rajesh Mohanty took 2 wickets for 34 runs. Vagesh Sharma and Pappu Roy took a wicket each but they both were expensive.
Odisha got off to a solid start as their openers hit a few boundaries early in the over. But none of them sustained and Gaurav Choudhary (17) and Swastik Samal (18) went back. Subhranshu Senapati and Biplap Samantray was batting and the Andhra skipper Ricky Bhui decided to bring his spinners back. He introduced Saurabh Kumar from one end and Bailapudi Yeswanth from the other.
Both of the spinners were excellent with their lines and cramped the batters. Saurabh was the key bowler who bowled through immaculate lines and used the arm balls well to give the jolts to the Odisha middle order. He took the key wickets of Senapati, Samantray and Govinda Poddar to finish with 3/21 in his 4 overs. Yeswanth got the wicket of Sourav Gouda and ended with a miserly bowling figure of 1/15. Prithvi Raj supported the spinners well with his seam bowling and took 3 wickets conceding only 4 runs.
At the end of the innings, Odisha got bundled out for a paltry 118, losing the game by a huge margin of 66 runs.
