Sheldon Jackson smashed a second hundred in two days as Saurashtra romped to a 10-wicket win over Goa in Rajkot. Jackson, who had scored 111 in his side's tournament opener on Friday, struck an unbeaten 150 off 106 balls, with 22 fours and four sixes, as Saurashtra chased down a target of 200 in 26.3 overs, without losing a wicket. Avi Barot, their other opener, finished unbeaten on 49 off 56 balls.
Sent in to bat, Goa were bowled out for a below-par 199, with Sagun Kamat scoring 95 (141b, 8x4) but no one else making a substantial contribution beyond Swapnil Asnodkar's 30 and Reagan Pinto's 29. Medium-pacer Saurya Sanandiya was Saurashtra's most successful bowler with three wickets, while Ravindra Jadeja had figures of two for 31 from his ten overs.
