Agarwal (84) and Sudharsan (53) shared an 118-run partnership for the second wicket, studded with 10 fours and two sixes, in South Zone’s emphatic 230-run chase in 44.2 overs.
While Agarwal slammed six fours and a six in 88 balls, his partner Sudharsan sent the ball four times across the fence and deposited it at the stands once in his 57-ball knock.

South Zone was atop the points table with four wins in as many games, while East Zone are placed second with 3 wins in 4 matches.

Electing to bat, Virat Singh (49) and Subhranshu Senapati (44) gave East Zone a good start but they suffered a collapse after the duo were back to the pavilion, losing regular wickets.
Akash Deep (44) and Mukhtar Hussain (33) then rescued the team, taking East Zone to a respectable score.
