BHUBANESWAR 02-Apr-2014 135
A four-wicket haul by medium pacer Pritam Das helped Assam post a 35-run win over Odisha in a league match of the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy East Zone T20 Cricket Tournament at Jadavpur University ground in Kolkata today.
Electing to bat, Assam rode on a 35-ball 47 by Sibsankar Roy and his 50-run partnership for the third wicket with Dheeraj Jadhav to muster a competitive total of 137 for six. In reply, a listless Odisha folded up for 102. In-form Paresh Patel was the only Odisha batsman to provide some resistance, hitting a run-a-ball 38. This was the first defeat in two matches for Odisha, who thrashed Tripura by six wickets in their previous match.
