Ravi Teja shines for HCA President's XI

Special Correspondent

HYDERABAD: A fine all-round performance by captain D. B. Ravi Teja, who claimed three for 44 and then struck an unbeaten 111 (113b, 7x4, 5x6), helped HCA President's XI record a six-wicket win over Andhra and enter the semi-final of the Coromandel King All India Moin-ud-Dowla Gold Cup invitation cricket tournament at ECIL here on Thursday.

Exciting win

In another match at Gymkhana, Jharkhand pulled off an exciting one-run win over Tamil Nadu but both teams failed to advance further in the tournament.

HCA Colts's hope of making it to the semifinal stage was dashed when Goa scripted a comfortable 63-run at NFC to move up. Uttar Pradesh and Orissa are the other two teams which made it to the last four stage.

Semifinal line-up:

HCA President's XI vs Uttar Pradesh at Gymkhana and Orissa vs Goa at the Rajiv Gandhi Stadium.

The scores:

Third round: Goa 260 bt Hyd Colts 197 (P. Shashank Nag 71, Amol Shinde 38); HCA XI 364 bt Kerala 242 for nine in 90 overs (C. M. Tejas 88, S. Anthony 47, Akash Bhandari three for 63).

Jharkhand 170 in 37.5 overs (Siddharth Raj Singh 61, Ishank Jaggi 53 not out, Marlon Rangarajan four for 48) bt Tamil Nadu 169 all in 37.4 overs (Kaushik Gandhi 59); Andhra 190 for seven in 42 overs (D. B. Ravi Teja three for 44) lost to HCA President's XI 195 for four in 38.1 overs (D. B. Ravi Teja 111 not out).

UP vs Bengal (match washed out).
