For the hosts, Sunil Sam, Yo Mahesh and B Aparajith took one wicket each.

Tamil Nadu and Haryana bagged one point each from the drawn tie.

Resuming at seven for no loss, openers Nitin Saini and Dewan added 40 runs when the former was caught by Arun karthik off Yo Mahesh in the 13th over.

Dewan and Khod then forged a 33-run partnership for the second wicket but the former was dismissed in the 27th over.
