Skipper Tanmay Agarwal with his unbeaten ton was the highest scorer 126 not out (158 balls, 12×4, 1×6) for his side.
Assam’s Riyan Parag, who snared eight wickets in the match – four wickets in each innings – dismissed Kartikeya Kak (1) for his overnight score to take his side to the victory.
Earlier, riding on Riyan Parag’s impressive 28-ball 78, Assam had given a target of 250 to Hyderabad on Day 3. Hyderabad managed to score 228 on the same day but lost nine wickets.
Though Tanmay carries his bat with an unbeaten century, his efforts proved insufficient with other batters failing to contribute.
