<p>From having been bowled out for a sorry 54 by Karnataka on Monday’s opening day to stunning defending champions Tamil Nadu on Tuesday, Goa made a quick turnaround in their fortunes in the South Zone one-day tournament for the KS Subbaiah Pillai Trophy here at the JIRS ground.<br /><br /></p>.<p>Opting to bowl first, Goa shot out Tamil Nadu for a modest 200 in 46.5 overs before racing to victory in just 37 overs with seven wickets to spare. At one stage, TN were reeling at 130 for seven, but a late-order flourish saw them reach a respectable total. <br /><br />Hard-hitting opener Swapnil Asnodkar was Goa’s hero, blasting his way to an unbeaten 102 (104b, 16x4). His unseparated 153-run association with Rahul Keni (70 n.o., 76b, 8x4, 1x6) for the fourth wicket sealed a famous win for the Goans. <br /><br />Having won the match with a bonus point, Goa, who were docked a point on Monday, now are on four points from two matches. TN too are on four points after losing a point for conceding a bonus to Goa. The low-scoring trend continued at the Chinnaswamy stadium with another match ending early. Hyderabad made short work of traditional rivals Andhra to win with a bonus point and draw level with leaders Karnataka on points (9). Left-arm spinner Pragyan Ojha bagged a five-for (5/19) as Hyderabad bowled out Andhra for 107 in 26.3 overs. Led by skipper DB Ravi Teja’s measured 42, Hyderabad raced to 111 for four in 22.5 overs to complete the formalities. <br /><br />Brief scores: At Chinnaswamy stadium: Andhra: 107 all out in 26.3 overs (AG Pradeep 34; Ashish Reddy 2-33, Pragyan Ojha 5-19, PK Naidu 2-13) lt to Hyderabad: 111/4 in 22.5 overs (DB Ravi Teja 42; B Sudhakar 2-24). Hyderabad 5 pts, Andhra -1.<br /><br />At JIRS ground: Tamil Nadu: 200 all out in 46.5 overs (Dinesh Kaarthick 43, K Shri Vasudeva Das 43, Suresh Kumar 27; Robin D’Souza 3-24, Shadab Jakati 3-36, Amith Yadav 2-48, Vidyadhar Kamath 2-20) lt to Goa: 201/3 in 37 overs (Swapnil Asnodkar 102 n.o., Rahul Keni 70 n.o.). Goa 5 pts, TN -1.</p>
