Ranji Trophy: Athish’s 88 Leads TN’s Charge For A Win, Andhra Inch Closer To Victory
Odisha Cricket Association: Tamil Nadu opener S.R. Athish struck a career-best 88 to anchor his side’s charge for victory on Day Three of their Elite Group A clash against Odisha in the Ranji Trophy 2025-26 at the KIIT Stadium in Bhubaneswar on Saturday.
Athish, who had made a scratchy maiden fifty in the first innings, looked far more assured in his second knock, while Sonu Yadav built on his maiden five-wicket haul with a brisk 74 as Tamil Nadu were bowled out for 316, setting Odisha a daunting target of 455. At stumps, Odisha were at 47/2 in 15.3 overs, with a win for Tamil Nadu looking a possibility.
Meanwhile, in Anantapur, Andhra strengthened their push for the quarterfinals by closing the day’s play at 93/1 against Vidarbha. Andhra need 166 more runs with K.S. Bharat and Shaik Rasheed unbeaten on 27 and 50 respectively in an unbroken 78-run stand.
