Andhra in their second innings scored 46 for no loss.

Andhra earned three points and Kerala one point.

Resuming at their overnight score of 208/6, Rohan Prem, who was batting on 52, continued from where he left yesterday, to rescue the hosts with sensible batting, dispatching the loose balls to the fence.
