Himachal Pradesh 248/9 (50.0 ov) - Jammu and Kashmir won the toss and elected to field
In the ongoing http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Vijay-Samuel-Hazare-c95227 Trophy, Himachal Pradesh after being asked to bat first by Jammu and Kashmir gave a decent performance by posting a modest score of 248 runs for the loss of nine wickets in 50 overs at Atal Bihari Vajpayee Stadium, Nadaun.
Openers A Chopra and P Chopra gave their side a fantastic start by posting 59 runs in the first-wicket partnership. This partnership was brought to its end by Z Sofi, who obliterated P Chopra’s stumps with the batsman on 25.
It was then time for the number-three batsman P Dogra to come in the middle and he proved his mettle by hammering away the bowlers from the get go.
This partnership took the sting out of the bowling attack as the duo took the score to 138, before the batting side suffered the demise of P Dogra, who fell after smacking an impressive knock of 34 off 49.
The partnership between http://www.senore.com/Cricket/A-Chopra-c41072 and Amit Kumar was short-lived, as the two batsmen could take the score to 155 before the former found his way back to the pavilion after smacking a 72-run knock.
http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Amit-Kumar-c44023 was then the next to lose his wicket as he was dismissed by Sofi after scoring only 18 runs. By this time Himachal Pradesh had reached 168 runs.
Pradesh, however, came back in the game with http://www.senore.com/Cricket/R-Dhawan-c82968 and Dhruv Singh forging a stiff resistance against their rivals.
With 221 on the board, this partnership met its demise on the wicket of Dhawan, who fell with 37 runs to his name.
http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Dhruv-Singh-c54032, who had scored 27 runs, was then the next man to walk off the field after being dismissed by Sofi.
The remaining batting line-up was dominated by the bowlers. Nonetheless, the batting side still managed to post a challenging score on the board and now Jammu and Kashmir will need to bat sensibility to reach the target.
Meanwhile, from Himachal Pradesh http://www.senore.com/Cricket/R-Dayal-c82963 (3) and Z Sofi (4) were the top performers with the ball.
