Ranji Trophy: On the final day, Gujarat vs Mumbai game on a knife-edge

It had been an eventful third day’s play in the Ranji Trophy Elite Group A clash between Mumbai and Gujarat in the Wankhede Stadium here on Friday. First Dhruv Raval (99) was unfortunate to miss a century brought Gujarat near overhauling Mumbai’s first innings total. Then Chintan Gaja staged Mumbai’s collapse until Aditya Tare’s remarkable 59 () along with his 58-run venture with Shivam Dube (40 n.o.) assisted the host regain ascendancy. 

Shivam Dubey, that hit a hundred in the first innings and took few wickets, will finally have to shepherd the lower order to push Mumbai, on 157 for 7, towards a complete they can be based on the last day. They lead by 173 runs and considering that Tushar Deshpande suffered a hamstring injury, the onus will now rest on Dubey and also the number nine batsman Dhrumil Matkar.

Mumbai opener Jay Bista once again had no response to an incoming delivery from Gaja — the chunk had rammed to the pad prior to the bat could come down. 

Akhil Herwadkar edged a delivery outside off, just as he had done in the first innings. Mumbai’s hope rested on their experienced Suryakumar Yadav however he had been taken out lbw by lovely incoming delivery from Kalaria. Siddesh Lad, Mumbai’s tragedy guy, was a bit unlucky as the ball didn’t bounce as far as he’d expected.
