    "editor1": "<p>Indore, Jan 11 (CRICKETNMORE) Captain Parthiv Patel&#39;s 90 lifted Gujarat to 291 for six in their first innings as they took a crucial 63-run lead over defending champions Mumbai on the second day of the Ranji Trophy cricket final here on Wednesday.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Apart from the seasoned left-hander, Manprit Juneja scored 77 as the duo shared a 120-run stand for the fourth wicket to help Gujarat move past record champions Mumbai&#39;s first innings total of 228 all out.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Parthiv&#39;s experience came to the fore as Gujarat were in deep trouble early, losing openers Samit Gohel (4) and Priyank Kirit Panchal (6).<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Gohel fell to medium pacer Shardul Thakur offering a catch to Suryakumar Yadav, while Panchal edged it to wicket-keeper Aditya Tare off medium pacer Abhishek Nayar&#39;s bowling, with Gujarat at 37-2.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Bhargav Merai (45) was then joined in the middle by Test wicket-keeper Parthiv. They warded off the danger with a 69-run stand. The partnership provided the stability that was required after Gujarat lost two early wickets.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Merai fell five short of a half-century as he edged it to Tare off Nayar, who picked up his second wicket at the Holkar Cricket Stadium.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>At 106-3, Juneja joined hands with Parthiv and the left-right combination flourished with ease. Stroke-making was the best part of the partnership and both of them scored fours regularly, piling pressure on the Mumbai bowlers.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>While Parthiv recorded his 56th fifty in the first-class cricket, Juneja too enjoyed the limelight during his 14th first-class half-century.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Their 120-run stand was halted by Nayar, who forced an edge off Parthiv to glovesman Tare, with Gujarat at 226-2, barely two runs behind Mumbai&#39;s first innings. Parthiv&#39;s 90 came from 146 deliveries and featured 12 fours.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Juneja soon joined his captain in the pavillion when he was caught and bowled by Thakur at his personal score of 77 off 95 deliveries, with Gujarat at 254-5. His knock was studded with 11 hits to the fence.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Mumbai bagged another wicket in the form of Rujul Bhatt (25), who was caught by Prithvi Shaw off seamer Balwinder Sandhu.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Then, Chirag Gandhi (17 not out) and Rush Kalaria (16 not out) ensuired that no more wickets fall as they took Gujarat to 291-6 -- a lead of 63 runs.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Brief scores: Mumbai first innings 228. Gujarat first innings 291-6 (Parthiv Patel 90, Manprit Juneja 77; Abhishek Nayar 3-91, Shardul Thakur 2-67) on Day 2.<\/p>\r\n",
