However, while batting first Haryana got off to a flying start as the openers hammered a stand of 69 runs.

However, this did not stop Haryana from keeping the scoreboard ticking as AA Khod and Dewan punished the bowlers a bit more before they suffered the loss of their third wicket on the demise of Dewan, who had his stumps obliterated by Vikas Mishra after belting a knock of 71 runs.

With RR Dalal doing most of the scoring, he and S Rana forged a decent resistance as they took the score to 199 runs before Rana lost his wicket to a leg-before decision with five runs on the board.
Skipper, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/A-Mishra-c871 was then Awana's next victim as he fell after jabbing a meagre knock of six runs.
Haryana seemed heading towards trouble as they were losing too many wickets, nonetheless, with RR Dalal unbeaten on 42 and J Yadav on three, they managed to end the day on a respectable total.
