Preview:

The points table will show that Saturday’s second game of Odisha Cricket League will be between the second-placed and the fourth-placed team of this competition. However, all that separates the two teams is the net run rate. Odisha Pumas have registered 2 wins from 4 games so far.

What has gone against their favour is the margin by which they have lost the games, which has pushed them back to fourth. The Tigers have also won 2 of their 4 games.
