Saurashtra, also with 12 points, are third ahead of Tamil Nadu, Karnataka and Uttarakhand -- the three teams with eight points each. Tripura and Sikkim are winless.
Both Tamil Nadu and Karnataka have won against minnows Tripura and Sikkim but they failed to turn up when the challenge got bigger. Tamil Nadu lost to Baroda and Gujarat while Karnataka suffered defeats against Uttarakhand and Saurashtra.
