A five-wicket haul by medium-pacer Amit Mishra helped Railways beat Assam by 35 runs today in a Vijay Hazare Trophy Group \u2018A\u2019.<\/p>\n
Defending a modest total of 161, Railways bundled out Assam for 126 in 39.3 overs as Mishra (5 for 21) and fellow medium-pacer Ankit Yadav (3 for 24) struck at regular intervals.<\/p>\n
Earlier,sent in to bat, Railways batsmen failed to string together any substantial partnership and folded up for 161 in 43.1 overs. Avinash Yadav was the top-scorer with 30.<\/p>\n
Amit Mishra hit the only six of the innings as Jitumoni Kalita and Arup Das, with three wickets each, kept things under control.<\/p>\n
Baroda handed Punjab a 25-run defeat in a rain-affected match, handing the team a second loss in three matches.<\/p>\n
Baroda was struggling at 52 for 5 before Vishnu Solanki\u2019s breezy knock of 77 not out (49 balls, 8X4, 3X6) and his 93-run stand with Swapnil K Singh (33) propelled them to 167 for 7 in 21 overs.<\/p>\n
Punjab looked in the hunt as long as captain Yuvraj Singh was in the middle. His dismissal for 36-ball 51 (7X4, 1X6) sent them hurtling to 142 all out in 20.5 overs.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, the match between Karnataka and Haryana was abandoned without a ball being bowled owing to a wet outfield following overnight rain.<\/p>\n
After three rounds, Karnataka is on top of the standings with 10 points (two wins and one no-result) followed by Baroda (8) and Haryana on 6.<\/p>\n
