The cryptic messages are baseless, and my celebration simply reflects the journey back to form in red ball. I remain the same and here to stay. Period,\u201d he said in a statement sent to IANS.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Rana\u2019s immediate task will now be to help Uttar Pradesh chase down 195 on day four of their Ranji Trophy game against Mumbai. On day three, India all-rounder Shivam Dube made a counter-attacking 117 off 130 balls for Mumbai to make 320 in their second innings after being shot out for 198 in first innings.<\/p>\r\n\r\n",
