South Zone brought forth their all-round prowess to brush aside North East Zone by nine wickets in their Deodhar Trophy match on Friday. The South Zone bowlers, led by Vidwath Kaverappa and R Sai Kishore, bundled out NE Zone for a feeble 136 after the latter elected to bat first. South had little trouble in overhauling the target in just 19.3 overs as opener Rohan Kunnummal made an unbeaten fifty (87, 58 balls, 8x4, 5x6). The victory also saw South consolidating their position on top of the table with 12 points, and a superior net run rate (NRR) too helped their cause.
