Ranji Trophy 2021-22 | Round-up: Jharkhand steal win against Tamil Nadu in close encounter

Jharkhand stole a win against Tamil Nadu in a close encounter in Guwahati. Chasing 212 in the second innings, the Jharkhand side lost some early wickets and were 49/4 when Saurabh Tiwary and Kumar Kushagra joined hands and stitched a stand of 90 runs for the fifth wicket to provide the much-needed resistance.

Both the batters notched up individual fifties but Kushagra’s dismissal once again broke the shackles as Jharkhand lost a couple of more wickets at regular intervals. 

It was Tiwary’s resilience at one end that kept the team in the game as the left-handed batter struck 93 during the course. Jharkhand eventually went over the line by 2 two wickets. 

Gujarat vs Meghalaya

Gujarat thump Meghalaya by an innings and 139 runs in Rajkot. The Gujarat side rode on a double-century from Merai and a scintillating 154 from Het Patel to post a mammoth 555/8 (D) in the first innings. 

The bowlers then got into the act as they bundled out Meghalaya for 166 to enforce a follow-on. Chintan Gaja scalped a fifer during the course. The struggle continued for the Meghalaya team as they never really got into the groove and were bowled out for 250 despite a century from Dwaraka Ravi Teja in the second innings. Arzan Nagwaswalla had four scalps to his name. 

Karnataka vs Puducherry 

Karnataka unveiled a dominating performance against Puducherry after beating them by an innings and 20 runs in Chennai. Karnataka posted a huge total of 453/8 (D) after Devdutt Padikkal and Manish Pandey scored individual tons. 

Later, Puducherry were bowled out for 241 after Gowtham picked up five wickets. Damoderan Rohit though scored a hundred during the course for his side but his efforts weren’t really enough and the team was asked to follow-on. 

The Karnataka bowlers continued the form and riding on a five-wicket haul from Shreyas Gopal, bowled out Puducherry for 192 in the second innings to win the match by an innings and 20 runs.

ICC Women's CWC 2022 | Indian team win hearts as they interact with Pakistan skipper’s infant daughter

India vs Pakistan clash is always a big one and especially when it comes to an ICC World Cup face-off. The clash between the women’s team of India and Pakistan on 6th March was another such event. With a lot at stake, the Indian women's side emerged victorious in the all-important game. However, what happened post-match was something that would fill each and every viewer's heart with joy. ICC uploaded a video in which the Indian players could be seen playing with Pakistan skipper Bismah Maroof’s six-month-old baby named Fatima. The cute little girl was carried by her mother while the Indian cricketers were trying to talk to her. In times where there is so much going around between the two countries, fans hope such moments between the cricketers come as a ray of hope. When the people involved in the game enjoy themselves so much with each other, why do the fans need to keep fighting with each other? It is to be noted that the Pakistan skipper Maroof was earlier considering retirement as she had become a mother and wanted to give time to her child. However, as destiny would have it, she is now leading the Pakistan team in the ICC ODI World Cup. It was a great gesture by the Indian women to interact with the mother-daughter duo. Here's the video: Coming to the match, it was a great win for the Indian side. After being reduced to 114-6 in 34 overs, they managed to put up a score of 244-7 at the end of their 50 overs. This was on the back of a 122-run partnership between Pooja Vastrakar (67) and Sneh Rana (53*). The Pakistan batting never got going as they kept losing wickets from time to time. They were eventually bowled out for 137 runs in 43 overs and lost the match by a whopping 107-run margin. Rajeshwari Gayakwad was the pick of the bowlers for the Indian team as she finished with four wickets conceding only 31 runs in her 10 over spell. Pooja was awarded the 'Player of the Match' award for her brilliant knock with the bat. This was India’s 11th consecutive win over Pakistan in ODI matches. The runners up of the previous edition have started off with a bang this time around and would be looking to capitalize on this form.
