Ranji One–Day Trophy

The Hyderabad team, led by Arjun Yadav, began their campaign in the Subbaiah Pillai Trophy as part of the South Zone Ranji One–Day Trophy, a List-A cricket tournament in India, with a loss against the Karnataka at Margao on 9 January 2005.[15] The Hyderabad troubled the Karnataka top-order with three quick wickets but the middle-order helped the Karnataka to recover to 244 while the tight-bowling by the Karnataka bowlers ensured them a 15-run win despite the half-centuries from Daniel Manohar, Arjun and Ambati Rayudu.[15] In a 42-over reduced rain-hit match, the top-order and lower-order collapse despite the half-centuries from Rayudu and Anirudh Singh restricted the Hyderabad to 166 while an unbeaten half-century from Sreekumar Nair helped the Kerala chase the target with five-wickets to spare.[16] In the third match, the century from Abhinav Kumar along with an unbeaten half-century from Anirudh helped the Hyderabad post 288 but an unbeaten half-century from Sridharan Sharath and the half-century from Subramaniam Badrinath helped the Tamil Nadu chase the target with six-wickets to spare.[17] In the fourth match, the Hyderabad top-order failed once again but the half-century from Rayudu and collective effort from the others helped them recover to 254 while the three-wicket haul from Inder Shekar Reddy along with the two-wicket hauls from Sankinani Vishnuvardhan and Pagadala Niranjan helped the Hyderabad win their first match of the tournament against the Goa by 78 runs despite the half-century from Mandar Phadke.[18] In the final zonal match, Yalaka Venugopal Rao's five wicket haul helped the Andhra bowl the Hyderabad out for 144 while an unbeaten half-century from M. S. K. Prasad helped the Andhra chase the target with four-wickets to spare despite two-wicket hauls and tight bowling from Inder Shekar and Shivaji.[19] This loss resulted the Hyderabad finish at fourth in the South Zone and failed to advance to the knockout stage with a win and four losses.[19][20]
