Mumbai 645/9d v http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Baroda-c769 167/5 (64.0 ov) - Baroda trail by 478 runs with 5 wickets remaining in the 1st innings
The third quarter-final in the ongoing Ranji Trophy between http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Mumbai-c820 and Baroda is a lost cause for the latter, as after getting bulldozed for a massive score of 645 runs, they now trail by 478 runs with five wickets in hand after scoring only 167 for five,
in their first innings, by stumps on the third day of play at Wankhede Stadium, Mumbai.
Mumbai were ruthless to their rivals as the batsmen pulverised their opponents, forcing the bowlers to come to their knees.
Mumbai, who chose to bat, had a decent first day where they posted 272 runs for the loss of three wickets. By this time, the game was not out of Baroda’s hands; however, it was the second day of play which turned the tables as Mumbai amassed a massive score
of 524 for the loss of six wickets by stumps. Mumbai have http://www.senore.com/Cricket/SR-Tendulkar-c2556 to thank them for this domination as the batsman belted a resounding knock of 108 runs.
After this erratic beating, it was imperative for Baroda to somehow, end Mumbai’s innings first thing in the morning and reply by bolstering a daunting batting performance in their first innings on Tuesday.
However, with AM Nayar unbeaten on 122, Mumbai were in a mood to continue their first innings as long as possible.
http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Gagandeep-Singh-c58301 drew first blood today, as he nabbed AA Chavan, who scored only 22 runs before finding his way back to the pavilion. By this time, Mumbai had piled 533 runs on the scoreboard.
AM Nayar was then the next man to walk off when he was dismissed by Vahora after jabbing an astounding knock of 132 runs.
However, Mumbai were not out cold yet, as B Agarkar and http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Khan-c71319 hammered another magnificent partnership, taking the score to 636 before the demise of Khan for 43. Meanwhile, Agarkar stayed unbeaten on 52 runs.
Baroda then had a slow start to their innings, where they failed to dominate the bowlers and lost too many wickets at the wrong time, ending the day under pressure.
