Yuvraj hit 25 fours and a six to put Punjab in a commanding
position
New Delhi, Dec 22 (IANS) Medium pacer Shardul Thakur took six wickets to help
Mumbai bowl out Uttar Pradesh for 206 in their first innings on the second
day of the
Ranji Trophy match at the Green Park
stadium in Kanpur on Monday while Yuvraj Singh's 136 lifted Punjab to 370 for
eight against Maharashtra in Pune.
Uttar Pradesh had Sunday scored 115 for one but managed to add
only 91 runs as right-armer Shardul demolished the hosts' top-order. He made
most of the early morning conditions and removed overnight batsman Prashant
Gupta (41) in the first delivery of the day. He continued his assault and
dismissed Umnag Sharma (0) and other overnight batsman Tanmay Srivastava (67)
as the batsmen guided moving deliveries to wicketkeeper Aditya Tare.
Kshemal Waigankar supported Shardul well, picking up two
wickets of Piyush Chawla (11) and Praveen Kumar (4). At the stumps, Mumbai also
were in a spot of bother as medium pacer Amit Mishra
removed openers Sushant Marathe (3) and
Braviush Shettry (7) early before Ankit Rajpoot dealt another blow to the
visitors by dismissing seasoned Abhishek Nayar (9). Mumbai are trailing by 164
runs.
At the Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium in Pune, veteran
all-rounder Yuvraj hit 25 fours and a six to put Punjab in a commanding
position. After his team was reeling at 54/3, he forged a 112-run partnership
for the fourth wicket with opener Jiwanjot Singh (68) and later stitched
another 112-run stand with Gurkeerat Singh (57). Gitansh Khera (37) and skipper
Harbhajan Singh (31) also came up with useful contributions.
At the Ferozeshah Kotla here, Delhi rode on good scores by
Unmukt Chand (batting 87) and Virender Sehwag (64) to reach 201 for three
against Rajasthan. At the close of play, Unmukt and Mithun Manhas (batting 34)
were at the crease.
