Cuttack: Swastik Samal scored 111 not out as Sundargarh beat BBSR-A by eight wickets in a 1st phase league (Diamond A, B) game of Kalahandi Cup 2024 on Friday.

Put in to bat at MGM Sports Ground, BBSR-A were all out on 185 in 48.1 overs, with Raghunath Malla scoring 87 off 110 balls. For Sundargarh, Amit Das, Ansh sharma and Swastik picked two wickets each.

The run-chase was walk-in-the-park for Sundargarh as they gunned down the target in 24.3 overs with Swastik scoring a century and Govinda Poddar chipping in with an unbeaten 63 off 50 balls.

Meanwhile, the match at KIIT Stadium turned out to be a low-scoring affair as Cuttack-A thrashed Rourkela by six wickets. If Rourkela had added few more runs batting first, the chase could have been tricky for Cuttack-A.
