They resumed the day with 62 on the board without any loss. Overnight batsmen http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Varun-Sharma-c94930 were expected to continue their potent partnership but, Monday, was not their day as the partnership was broken earlier in the morning with 73 on the board when Sharma was caught after he had scored 35 runs.

However, before Assam bowlers could make a strong comeback, skipper A Chopra and http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Amit-Kumar-c44023, halted the bowlers as they moulded another important partnership, leading their side to 117. Chopra then lost his wicket to Syed Mohammad after scoring a 55-run knock.

Himachal Pradesh’s run rate then dropped drastically as they focussed to preserve their wickets till the end of the day.
They ended by posting 158 runs on the board with Amit Kumar on 20 and http://www.senore.com/Cricket/R-Dhawan-c82968 still standing with 28 runs to his name.
