SMAT: Bhuvneshwar's Triple-wicket Maiden Guides UP To 10-run Win Over Jharkhand
Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy: Veteran pacer Bhuvneshwar Kumar claimed a triple-wicket maiden as Uttar Pradesh secured a narrow 10-run victory over Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy (SMAT) group-stage match against Jharkhand at the Wankhede Stadium on Thursday.
Chasing 161 for victory, Jharkhand looked steady in patches, but Bhuvneshwar's masterful swing derailed their chase. Bowling with the new ball, the Meerut-born pacer conceded just six runs in his first three overs.
When he returned in the 17th over, Bhuvneshwar delivered a game-changing final over, dismissing Robin Minz, Bal Krishna, and Vivek Anand Tiwari on consecutive deliveries to claim a sensational. He finished with exceptional figures of 4-1-6-3, ensuring Jharkhand fell short by 10 runs.
