Duleep Trophy: Suthar’s Five-for Lead India C's Fightback After Iyer, Padikkal Smash Fifties
Rural Development Trust: Left-arm spinner Manav Suthar used the rough well to pick his fourth five-wicket haul in first-class cricket to lead India C’s fightback after half-centuries from captain Shreyas Iyer and Devdutt Padikkal took India D to 206/8, extending their lead to 202 runs at stumps on Day Two of Duleep Trophy first round match on Friday.
After 14 wickets fell on Day One of the game at the Rural Development Trust (RDT) ground, Friday saw three batters get half-centuries. Before Iyer and Padikkal, Baba Indrajith top-scored with a gritty 72, laced with nine boundaries, to get India C a slender four-run lead.
Resuming from India C at 91/4, pacer Harshit Rana brought early cheers to India D by trapping Abishek Porel lbw and dismissing Suthar in quick succession. Soon, India D were reduced to 108/8, but Indrajith's grit and determination to play a fighting knock helped the side get past India C’s total of 164.
