Cuttack: A brilliant 76 by Robin Uttappa again led India Blue beat India Green at the Barabati Stadium on Saturday reach team into Final.
Needing to chase 219 to make it to Sunday’s final, India Green muffed their chances and succumbed to a 19-run defeat. A poor start put pressure on the middle order, which in turn failed to come up with the goods, and by the time Cheteshwar Pujara fell for 65, the match was out of Green’s control. India Blue themselves had failed to bat out 45 overs - overnight and morning rain forced the reduction in overs - but a tidy bowling display backed up Robin Uthappa’s 76 for a win that will boost their confidence ahead of Sunday's final against India Red.
