Jharkhand qualify for Ranji knockouts

A round-up of the Ranji Trophy Group C matches on December 4, 2015

Jharkhand 388 for 8 dec (Tiwary 209, Kaushal 54, Milind 3-77, Kiran 3-94) and 29 for 0 beat Hyderabad 145 (Jaskaran 3-32, Nadeem 3-33, Kaushal 3-35) and 267 (Anirudh 78, Rahul 5-89) by 10 wickets
Scorecard
Jharkhand wrapped up a 10-wicket win against Hyderabad to secure their place in the knockouts. Resuming on 169 for 6, Hyderabad managed 267 on the back of B Anirudh's unbeaten 78. Jharkhand then chased down 27 in 3.4 overs with 10 wickets to spare to take a bonus-point win as they became the second team from Group C, after Saurashtra, to qualify for the quarter-finals. Anirudh hit 10 fours and a six during his 78 off 135 balls but did not get enough support from the lower order. Rahul Shukla was the pick of the bowlers for Jharkhand, claiming his third five-wicket haul in first-class cricket.
Services 512 (Paliwal 203, Lochab 95) beat Tripura 230 (Das 53, Pathania 3-49) and 220 (f/o) (Parvinder 58, Raj 3-37) by an innings and 62 runs
Scorecard
Services cruised to an innings and 62-run win in Agartala, consigning Tripura to their fifth defeat of the season and leaving them rooted at the bottom of the table. Tripura, who began at 9 for 0 following on, needed to score at least 282 to make Services bat again. Parvinder Singh and Rajesh Banik stroked half-centuries to keep the team afloat, but meaningful contributions from the other players were few and far between, as Services struck at regular intervals to bowl the hosts out for 220. Raushan Raj ended with figures of 3 for 37, while Diwesh Pathania and Muzzaffaruddin Khalid snared two scalps apiece.
