However, the second semi-final of the ongoing competition saw both Maharashtra and Vidarbha score 300-plus scores, and this one is expected to be a high-scoring contest.

With Karun Nair eyeing an India call-up, and facing his old team, this one should be a cracking contest. 

"The dream is always to play for the country. So, yes, the dream is still alive. That's the reason we play this game, to play for your country. So, the one and only goal was to play for the country," Karun was quoted as saying by PTI.
