Tamil Nadu will fancy its chances for an outright win against a confident Chhattisgarh when the two sides meet at the Nehru Stadium in their second outing of the Elite Group H Ranji Trophy that begins on Thursday.
TN pulled off a heist when it chased down Delhi’s first-innings total of 452 after being reduced to 162-5 at one stage after Shahrukh Khan (194) and B. Indrajith (117) produced counter-attacking hundreds to help the team get three points for taking the lead.
Chhattisgarh on the other hand is the only team in the group with six points after its eight-wicket win over Jharkhand in a low-scoring encounter. This means the other teams in this group now need an outright win in their remaining two fixtures.
