  Ranji Trophy: Odisha escape defeat against Jammu-Kashmir
21 Oct 2024
 

Lady luck smiled on host Odisha as they not only escaped from the jaws of a embarrassing defeat but also gained three points by virtue of taking a slender two-run first-innings lead against Jammu & Kashmir in their Ranji Trophy Elite Group-A match, which ended in an exciting draw at Barabati Stadium in Cuttack today.

Chasing a daunting target of 269 for victory on the fourth and final day, Odisha tottered at 29 four before a valiant unbeaten half-century by Sandeep Pattanaik helped them draw the match by the skin of their teeth, making 112 for eight off 80.4 overs in the second innings. Despite being a dominant side, Jammu & Kashmir settled with one point.

Odisha captain Govinda Poddar played an instrumental role in gaining the first-innings lead for the home team. His unbeaten 133 enabled Odisha muster a total of 272, in reply to 270 by Jammu & Kashmir, who elected to bat first after winning the toss. This was the ninth century in First-Class cricket for Poddar, who hit 11 fours and four sixes in his 201-ball unbeaten knock.
 

Left-arm spinner Sumit Sharma was another Odisha player who put up an impressive performance on his First-Class debut, bagging five wickets for 79 runs in the first innings. The 29-year-old Cuttack bowler was able to return to the State team after the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) revoked a two-year ban imposed on him earlier this year for age fudging.

Jammu-Kashmir batter Abdul Samad bagged the Player of the Match award for scoring a century in both the innings. He slammed 127 in the first innings and an unbeaten 108 in the second. This was the second match for Odisha after the first game against Tripura was abandoned without a ball bowled due to rain and wet outfield. Odisha will next meet Baroda at Kotambi Stadium in Vadodara from October 26 to 29.
