His effort and half-centuries by N Jagadeesan (65), Washington Sundar (96 batting) helped the visitors to post 379 for 1 in 88 overs.

"Pleased and happy to get the double ton. I am all the more glad that it served the team's cause," said an elated Sai Sudharsan to this daily after the day's play. This was his sixth first-class ton.

Put in to bat, the Tamil Nadu openers Sai Sudharsan and N Jagadeesan played cautiously. On a pitch that had assistance for the pacers, the duo rose to the challenge and played to the merit of the ball.
