Shreyas Iyer, on 191 overnight, stood between
Gujarat and a first-innings lead. His early dismissal for 194 on the final day meant
Mumbai fell 15 short of taking three points, despite Shardul Thakur's half-century at No. 9. Mumbai were bowled out for 417, having begun the day on 328 for 6.
The second innings was reduced to a mere formality as Gujarat's openers scored 82 without loss in 45 overs when the captains shook hands
in Hubli. Priyank Panchal, the opener who made 232 in the first innings, was unbeaten on 56. Fast bowler
Jasprit Bumrah was named Man of the Match for a career-best 6 for 71.
Mandeep Singh struck a brisk century, and medium-pacer Manpreet Gony hammered an unbeaten 66 off 26 balls, in the drawn game between
Punjab and
Tamil Nadu in Nagpur.
Punjab had conceded the first-innings lead thanks to
Kaushik Gandhi's career-best 164. In the second innings, they scored at 4.74 runs per over, before declaring for 375. Mandeep Singh's 128 off 160 balls anchored the innings in which Uday Kaul (65) and Gurkeerat Singh (55 off 45) also got runs, before a promoted Manpreet Gony hit eight sixes.
However, the timing of Punjab's declaration left Tamil Nadu only 37 overs to negotiate in a chase of 306. They lost only one wicket, as Abhinav Mukund (67*) and Gandhi (21*) put on 78 for the second wicket and took them to stumps.
Saurabh Wakaskar scored his second fifty of the game as
Railways settled for a point after conceding the first-innings lead to
Madhya Pradesh at the Feroz Shah Kotla
in Delhi. MP took the lead early in the day, having begun on 356 for 5, just 15 behind Railways' 371. Overnight batsmen
Devendra Bundela and
Shubham Sharma continued their remarkable partnership for the sixth wicket, taking it past 200 and finally being separated with the score on 406, having come together on 164 for 5.
Shubham scored 119, his maiden first-class century, while Bundela scored a career-best 188. MP added 104 runs in the last 21 overs, before declaring on 510 for 8. In reply, Railways reached 150 for 1 at the end of play. Wakaskar was unbeaten on 71, after putting on 100 for the opening wicket with Shivakant Shukla, who scored 57.
