Ranji Trophy: Suryakumar Yadav smashes 80-ball 90 against Hyderabad | Cricket News – Times of India
NEW DELHI: Returning to first-class cricket after almost three years, Suryakumar Yadav fired an 80-ball 90 against Hyderabad in on Day 1 of Group B Ranji Trophy match at the Bandra Kurla Complex in Mumbai. Skipper Ajinkya Rahane and Yashasvi Jaiswal also hit tons as as Mumbai got to 396 for three at the close of play.
Surya, who is the No.1 T20I batter, approached the domestic red-ball game with same fearlessness and intensity as his knock comprised 15 fours and a six.
The stylish batter has time and again expressed his desire to play Test cricket for India. He last played a first-class game way back in February 2020.
Jaiswal continued his rich vein of form with a sublime 162 off 95 balls while Rahane was batting on 139 at stumps.
Prithvi Shaw was out for 19 after Hyderabad opted to field at the BKC ground.
Shorey strikes 8th first-class ton to lead Delhi’s recovery
Opener Dhruv Shorey struck his eighth first-class hundred to steer Delhi to 271 for seven on day one of their fixture against Assam.
Assam removed Shorey’s partner Anuj Rawat early after opting to field first.
Shorey remained unbeaten on 139 off 216 balls before bad light forced an early stumps with 81 overs bowled on the day.
Delhi’s young captain Yash Dhull made 22 off 56 balls while Vaibhav Rawal came up with a valuable 43 off 71 balls. Senior batter Nitish Rana was out first ball.
Delhi, who lost their tournament opener to Maharashtra, fielded a depleted unit in the absence of injured pacers Ishant Sharma and Mayank Yadav. They were forced to field three debutants in Harshit Rana, Pranshu Vijayran and spinner Hrithik Shokeen.
Senior pacer Navdeep Saini, who suffered an abdominal muscle strain while being part of the Indian team in Bangladesh, is unlikely to be fit in time for Delhi’s next game.
Brief scores:
Delhi 271/7 in 81 overs (Dhruv Shorey 139 batting, Mrinmoy Dutta 2/50) versus Assam.
