HI there,

Sql query is a very fantastic tool offered by EL 7.3. However i cant explain that bug :

When i use SUM with Match , 1 condition, query below works well

POST \_xpack/sql?format=txt  
{  
"query":"SELECT SUM(FlightTimeHour) Avg\_Flight\_Time FROM flights where MATCH(OriginCountry,'AE') "  
}

But if i use 2 or more conditions, SUM and MATCH query below fails :

POST \_xpack/sql?format=txt  
{  
"query":"SELECT SUM(FlightTimeHour) Avg\_Flight\_Time FROM flights where MATCH(OriginCountry,'AE') OR MATCH(OriginCountry,'FR') "  
}

Can someone tell me what is wrong ?

Hi @Johna,  
Sorry for replying late. Indeed, this is a bug and I just created [https://github.com/elastic/elasticsearch/issues/47365](https://github.com/elastic/elasticsearch/issues/47365) to track its progress.
