    "editor1": "<p>March 18 (CRICKETNMORE) -&nbsp;Bengal beat Jharkhand by 41 runs to enter Vijay Hazare Trophy final. Chasing down the victory target of 330, Jharkhand team was&nbsp;bowled out for 288 in 50 overs, even though iconic former national captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni top-scored with 70 in 62 deliveries and Ishank Jaggi contributed 59.<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\nIndia discard left-arm spinner Pragyan Ojha took 5\/71 in 10 overs for Bengal, while medium pacers Kanishk Seth and Sayan Ghosh bagged two wickets each.<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\nThe main difference in the match was created by openers Goswami and Easwaran, who laid a rock solid foundation for Bengal. While Goswami hit 11 fours and a six in his 99-ball 101, Easwaran&#39;s 121-ball 101 was less stroke-filled, featuring only seven fours and a six.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Also Check <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cricketnmore.com\/gallery\/438\/zaheer-khan-delhi-daredevils-3879\">IPL 2017 Team Captains Record<\/a><br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\nBy the time Bengal lost their first wicket, they had posted 198 in 34.2 overs and such a strong start allowed Tiwary to show his striking ability. The right-hander milked seven fours and two sixes during his 49-ball stay that powered Bengal to 329\/4. Agniv Pan (19) and Sudip Chatterjee (19) also add crucial runs late in the Bengal innings.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Click Next to Check Scorecard<\/p>\r\n\r\n<div style=\"page-break-after: always\"><span style=\"display: none;\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/div>\r\n\r\n<p>For Jharkhand, paceman Varun Aaron took two wickets but he proved costly, giving away 89 runs in his stipulated 10 overs. Monu Kumar took a wicket by giving away 40 runs in 10 overs.<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\nChasing a huge total, Jharkhand didn&#39;t get the start they needed, losing Pratyush Singh (11) and Virat Singh (24) to be in a spot of bother at 56\/2 in 12.4 overs. Kumar Deobrat (37) perished too, leaving his side at 99\/3 in 22.3 overs.<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\nHowever, the Jharkhand middle-order stepped up even though they always played a catching up game. Saurabh Tiwary (48) and Dhoni (70) put up a 54-run stand for the fourth wicket before the former was bowled by medium pacer Ashoke Dinda.<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\nJaggi and Dhoni then got down to business and forged a 97-run stand for the fifth wicket. The partnership in just 12 overs made sure that the match came alive and with Dhoni around, Jharkhand&#39;s hopes were intact. But with five wickets down, it was a matter of picking up a couple of wickets for Bengal -- which they did.<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\nDhoni was bowled by Ojha in the final ball of the 43rd over and Sayan removed Jaggi in the 45th over to leave Jharkhand with a stiff task of scoring 72 runs in 5.2 overs.<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\nAfterwards, Ojha ran through the Jharkhand lower-order as they were bowled out for 288, losing by 41 runs.<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\nBrief scores: Bengal: 329\/4 in 50 overs (Shreevats Goswami 101, Abhimanyu Easwaran 101, Manoj Tiwary 75; Varun Aaron 2\/89. Jharkhand: 288 all out in 50 overs (Mahendra Singh Dhoni 70, Ishank Jaggi 59, Saurabh Tiwary 48; Pragyan Ojha 5\/71).<\/p>\r\n\r\n<hr \/>\r\n<p>Source - IANS<\/p>\r\n",
