Ranji Trophy: Gujarat Crush Saurashtra within the quarterfinals© X (Twitter)
Pacers Priyajit Jadeja and Arzan Nagwaswalla shared seven wickets amongst them as Gujarat pummelled Saurashtra by an innings and 98 runs to enter the Ranji Trophy semifinals in Rajkot on Tuesday. The Saurashtra batting malfunctioned once more within the match as they have been bundled out for 197 of their second innings, distant from the mark of 295 required to make Gujarat bat once more. Left-arm pacer Nagwaswalla (3/54) and his right-arm colleague Priyajit (4/32) have been unstoppable as soon as Saurashtra resumed the day from 33 for no loss.
Priyajit inflicted the primary blow, eradicating in a single day opener Chiraj Jani (26) to finish a cussed stand of 67 in 28 overs.
The younger pacer bagged the prized wicket of India batter Cheteshwar Pujara (2) as any sensible hopes Saurashtra needed to get near Gujarat pale away.
Opener Harvik Desai made a gritty 54 off 103 balls with 9 fours however others weren’t in a position to stick round with him.
India leg-spinner Ravi Bishnoi (2/30) bagged two key wickets together with that of Saurashtra stalwart Sheldon Jackson (27), who retired from skilled cricket as his workforce crashed out within the quarterfinals.
From there, it was only a matter of time earlier than Saurashtra innings folded.
