Tamil Nadu win trophy on first innings lead Partab Ramchand - 11 October 2000
Predictably enough, Tamil Nadu emerged triumphant in the South Zone (under-25) tournament for the Coca Cola Trophy at the M Chinnaswamy stadium in Bangalore on Wednesday. Their first innings lead of 91 runs over Karnataka sufficed for them to lay their hands on the trophy. Resuming at 245 for five in reply to Karnataka's first innings total of 209, Tamil Nadu were all out for 300 in 89.5 overs. J Harish (51) and D Dhandapani (17) added 50 runs for the seventh wicket off 17 overs. Harish faced 97 balls and hit four boundaries. But GV Ravi brought the innings to a swift end by taking four quick wickets and Tamil Nadu slid from 295 for six to 300 all out in the space of eight overs. Ravi finished with six wickets for 69 runs off 24.5 overs. In the remaining time, which was affected by rain, Karnataka scored 106 for five wickets. They lost three wickets for 20 runs but then some steady batting by R Shanbal (21), Sudhindra Shinde (28) and Amith Kumar (33 not out) saw Karnataka move to safety. Dhandapani who took six wickets in the first innings, captured two for 24 off 13 overs this time around. Because of rain, play was stopped at 3 pm. The match was finally called off at 3.30 pm. © CricInfo
