Ajinkya Rahane and Prithvi Shaw faltered yet again as Karnataka pacers wreaked a havoc and bundled out Mumbai for a paltry 194 on the opening day of their Elite Ranji Trophy game here. However, skipper Suryakumar Yadav (77 off 94 balls; 10×4 and 2×6) stood alone at BKC ground when all other batsmen failed. His knock ensured that the hosts at least went past the 175-run mark.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Earlier, the four-pronged Karnataka pace attack justified skipper Karun Nair\u2019s decision to bowl first on a breezy morning as they ran through the Mumbai batting line-up. Mumbai was reduced to 86\/6 at lunch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Opener Aditya Tare (0) was dismissed by medium pacer V Koushik . Rahane then joined Shaw as the two tried to steady the ship.While Rahane edged behind to keeper B R Sharath, Lad was bowled as Mumbai slumped to 34\/3.Shaw played a sedate knock, but again failed to convert his start.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Khan was caught in the slip cordon, while Mulani was trapped in front of the wicket. Mumbai were 60-6.At lunch, Surya was unbeaten on 33 in company of Shashank Attarde .Surya and Attarde then rallied the innings with their 88-run stand off 92 balls with Attarde playing the second fiddle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Surya played a responsible knock as he took the team out of the rubble. He first launched an attack on Shreyas Gopal as Mumbai amassed 19 runs in the 28th over.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Surya completed his fifty with a flick off Koushik even as after lunch the two kept frustrating the opposition bowlers.Then it was just a matter of time as Mumbai were eventually shot out for 194 in 55.5 overs with Shreyas Gopal taking the final wicket.In reply, Karnataka openers Devdutt Padikkal and R Samarth gave the visitors a sedate start by conjuring 68 for the first wicket.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
However, left arm spinner Shams Mulani pegged back Karnataka by removing Padikkal and Abhishek Reddy (0) in the same over as Karnataka were 68-2.At stumps, Karnataka were 79\/3 with skipper Karun Nair (0 batting) with Samarth as Karnataka still trail by 115 runs.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
