Maharashtra skipper, Kalyani Umrani, won the toss and opted to bat. Yet again her side put on a miserable performance for what followed was not different to their previous day performance in the semi-final yesterday.

The side did not last the stipulated 45 overs and were bundled out for a paltry 73. The highest individual score came off the bat of skipper Kalyani Umrani, with Rucha Shinde (14), Amruta Shinde (14) and Chandarani Kamble (12) all bunched together with near identical scores.

Kishan Mamta scalped three wickets while S Monica chipped in with two. Andhra Pradesh wiped out the target in the 28th over losing just four wickets in the process. Mithali Raj lead the way with a quick knock of 29, and R Sabita and Harsha H adding 11 runs each to the tally.

Brief Scores: Maharashtra 73 40.5 overs (Kalyani Umrani 16, Amruta Shinde 14, Rucha Shinde 14, Sneha Belsare 9; Kishan Mamta 3/10, S Monica 2/13, Mithali Raj 1/19, G Laxmi 1/8).
