Akshay Sharma (62-64) signed for a 64 to continue in second place for the second straight day. Akshay’s total stood at 14-under 126.

The cut fell at even-par 140. Fifty-five professionals made the cut.
Jamal, a 10th tee starter on day two, continued from where he left in round one as he collected two birdies and an eagle on the back-nine. Jamal’s eagle-two on the Par-4 15th came after his tee shot hit the flagstick and landed next to the hole. He then added four more birdies on the front-nine thanks to his outstanding chipping and putting.
Jamal said, “I posted a lower score in round one but I felt I played better today. Soon after Chandarjeet made a hole-in-one on a Par-4, I too came very close to achieving the feat on the 15th. My round just took off after that eagle.
“I left a few putts out there but I’m quite happy about my driving and tee shots. I just need to keep repeating the same over the next two days so that I can finally cross the line this year after having come close to winning on multiple occasions.”
Akshay too had an error-free day. He picked up two birdies on the front-nine and four more on the back-nine. Like Jamal, he drove the Par-4 15th green, which set up a birdie for him. Akshay also displayed some terrific chipping and putting that came to his rescue when he missed the greens.
