Hyderabad secured a dominant 107-run victory over Bengal, fueled by a historic unbeaten double-century from Aman Rao, who anchored Hyderabad to a massive total of 352/5, despite a three-wicket effort from Mohammed Shami. Bengalâs pursuit began disastrously as Mohammed Siraj (4/58) tore through the top order. Although Shahbaz Ahmed played a heroic lone hand with an unbeaten 108, the mountain of runs proved too high to climb. Bengal was eventually bowled out for 245, leaving Hyderabad to celebrate a comprehensive and clinical performance.

Player of the Match: Aman Rao
4:54 PM IST, Local Time: A valiant century from Shahbaz Ahmed goes in vain as Bengal are bowled out for 245, handing Hyderabad a commanding 107-run victory. With this heavy defeat, Bengal are all but out of the tournament.
Earlier, Hyderabad delivered a dominant batting performance to pile up a massive 352 for 5, driven by a truly remarkable innings from Aman Rao. After Bengal opted to bowl, Hyderabadâs openers laid a solid platform, with Rahul Singh providing the early impetus and Aman playing the anchor. The pair added over a hundred for the first wicket before Rahul departed for a fluent 65, but Hyderabad never lost momentum. Aman then combined with Tilak Varma in a crucial partnership that kept the innings on track through the middle overs.
Amanâs calm control stood out as wickets fell around him. He rotated the strike smartly, picked his moments to attack, and ensured the run rate never dipped. Even a late burst of wickets from Mohammed Shami couldnât slow Hyderabadâs charge, as Aman shifted gears brilliantly in the final phase of the innings.
The left-hander capped off a memorable knock by smashing a six off the final ball to bring up a stunning double century â 200* off 154 balls, studded with 12 fours and 13 sixes. His marathon effort propelled Hyderabad to an imposing total.
Mohammed Shami bagged three wickets for Bengal, but was expensive as he conceded 70 runs in 10 overs. Shahbaz Ahmed and Rohit Das chipped in with one wicket each.
Bengalâs chase never really took off as they suffered a disastrous start, slipping to 50 for 4 inside the first eight overs. Mohammed Siraj led Hyderabadâs new-ball charge brilliantly, claiming three early wickets to put Bengal firmly on the back foot.
The fightback came through Anustup Majumdar and Shahbaz Ahmed, who stitched together a much-needed 97-run stand for the fifth wicket. Majumdar looked positive and fluent in his 59, while Shahbaz held the innings together at the other end. Just when Bengal were starting to believe, Chinntla Rakshan Reddy broke the partnership by removing Majumdar, and the momentum swung back Hyderabadâs way.
Shahbaz carried on bravely and brought up a superb century, but he ran out of partners as wickets kept falling around him. He was left stranded on 108* as Bengal were bowled out for 245 in 44.4 overs, handing Hyderabad a dominant 107-run win.
Mohammed Siraj led the charge for Hyderabad with an impressive 4 for 58 from his 10 overs. He was well supported by Nitesh Reddy, who picked up two wickets, while Chama Milind, Chinntla Rakshan Reddy, Nitin Sai Yadav, and Pranav Varma chipped in with one wicket apiece to complete Bengalâs collapse.

44.4 N Reddy to M Kumar
W OUT! CAUGHT AND BOWLED! DONE AND DUSTED! NITISH WRAPS IT UP BY HIMSELF, TAKING HIS SECOND WICKET! Pushes across, full and around off, does Nitish. Mukesh gets forward and tries to push with soft hands for a single, but ends up chipping it off the toe end of the bat back to the bowler. Nitish flings himself to his left and pouches it while being fully airborne. Manages to hold his grip despite tumbling down onto the ground. A BIG WIN FOR HYDERABAD AS THEY HAVE DEFEATED BENGAL BY 107 RUNS!!!
