Bandana bowls Odisha U-19 girls to victory

Riding on Bandana Hanuman`s rare bowling feat, Odisha trounced Jharkhand by five wickets to register their second straight win in the East Zone Women`s U-19 Cricket Tournament at Guwahati today.

Bandana scalped three wickets in one over without conceding any run as Jharkhand were skittled out for a paltry 41 after electing to bat first. None of their batsmen could reach the double figure. Captain Swagatika Rath and Siprarani Rout were other successful bowlers for Odisha, picking up a brace each.
Odisha overhauled the target in 25 overs, losing five wickets in the process. Pragyan Mohanty was the only batsman to reach double figures and remained unbeaten on 11. Mr Extras turned out to be the top scorer for both the team with Odisha conceding 18 runs and Tripura 21.
Odisha eves, who earlier beat Tripura in their opening match by 25 runs, will take on host Assam in the third game on Tuesday.
