Andhra need 104 for a first-innings lead with eight wickets intact.

Overview

  • Andhra closed day two at 224 for 2 in Jamshedpur, with Abhishek Reddy unbeaten on 103 off 156 balls and Tripurana Vijay 6 not out.
  • Jharkhand were dismissed earlier for 328 in 112.3 overs, their last four wickets adding 69 runs as Sahil Raj finished with 50.
  • KV Sasikanth took 4 for 67 and left-arm spinner Saurabh Kumar claimed 4 for 77 to limit the hosts’ first-innings total.
