Akshat Reddy shines for Hyderabad

Openers Akshat Reddy and D B Ravi Teja helped Hyderabad score 129 runs for loss of just 1 wicket in 41 overs on Day One of the season's first match in the Ranji Trophy Plat League match against Jharkhand being played at the Rajiv Gandhi International Cricket Stadium at Hyderabad here on Thursday. Hyderabad won the toss and elect to bat on the rain effected day.

Akshat Reddy scored 61 runs from 105 balls and put up a total of 111 runs in partnership with skipper D B Ravi Teja (58 not out) before getting run out. Gade Hanuman Vihari, who is being considered as the next big thing for Hyderabad cricket is at crease with 8 runs from 32 balls at end of day's play.

With this, Hyderabad had a great start to this season compared to last year in which the entire team was dismissed for just 21 runs - which happens to be the least score by a score in the history of Ranji Trophy cricket tournament.
