Guwahati, January 16: Kho Kho powerhouse Maharashtra continued its domination by registering as many as four wins on Day 2 of the Kho Kho competition at the Khelo India Youth Games 2020 here in Guwahati, Assam. Kerala, Andhra Pradesh and Karnataka too were among the states that grabbed multiple wins on Thursday (January 16).
Being traditionally strong in the highly popular indigenous sport, Maharashtra has hardly been facing any hassle in the league stages so far. In U-21 Boys category, they demolished Assam by a huge score of 17-11. Their girl counterparts were equally impressive in their mighty 18-7 win over the same opponent.

Kerala continued their fine run from Day 1 to beat Haryana 9-8 by the slimmest of margins in an enthralling encounter in U-21 Girls. Both the teams bagged 5 points in the second innings but it was Kerala's one-point lead in the first innings that gave them the win. Kerala also notched up a 12-10 win over West Bengal in U-21 Boys section.
Karnataka put up 5 points on the board against Kerala in their U-21 Girls face-off. But the latter could manage only 2 points per innings to lose the match 4-5. In U-21 Boys, Karnataka showed great character to edge Tamil Nadu 13-11.
