Ranji Trophy: Pondicherry Score Historic 9-wicket Victory Over Delhi
Arun Jaitley Stadium: Pondicherry scripted a historic chapter in their Ranji Trophy journey as visitors secured a convincing 9-wicket victory over former champions Delhi, chasing down a modest target of 50 in the opening match of Elite Group D at the Arun Jaitley Stadium here on Monday.
Pondicherry's bowlers showcased dominance, dismantling the Delhi batting lineup, and restricting them to 148 and 145 in the first and second innings respectively.
Gaurav Yadav, the former Madhya Pradesh fast bowler now donning Pondicherry's colours, emerged as the tormentor-in-chief. His career-best seven-wicket haul for just 49 runs in the first innings dismantled Delhi, setting the tone for Pondicherry's dominance. Yadav continued his brilliance with three more wickets in the second innings, accumulating a match haul of 10 wickets.
