The Tamil Nadu batter came to the team’s rescue in tricky conditions on the opening day of the Ranji Trophy clash against Assam here with an enterprising knock that underlined his growing stature. Andre, who made his Ranji Trophy debut in the season opener against Saurashtra, scored a 163-ball 94 to put his team in control after a rather poor start.
