Ranji TRophy- jK v/s Goa

Day 1: Goa on driver’s seat Srinagar, Nov 7: After early hiccups, Goa went on to post a decent 281 runs for the loss of eight wickets at the end of first days play of Ranji Trophy match four day match at Sheri-Kashmir Cricket stadium here on Thursday. Goa won the toss and elected to bat first in the overcast conditions. The courageous deci-sion seemed to have backtracked for the visitors as JK pacer, Ram Dayal rattled stumps of Goa’s seasoned opener SA Asnodkar opener for naught. Thereafter Goa went on to loss two more wickets courtesy Samiullah. At one time Goa was strug-gling on 21 for three. However a little secure part-

nership between opener AS Desai and Ravikanth Shukla stabilised the inning. They carried score upto 80 when Shukla lost his composer and was trapped leg before by Ram Dayal. At that point it seemed that JK win ran away through Goa line-up in the conditions that suited hosts more than the visitors. However, AS Desai was joined by KA Vaz who hammered host bowlers all over park. They went on to form partnership of 87 runs between them carrying score to 167. It was Desai who fell to JK skipper Parvez Rasool after scoring 71 runs. KA Vaz was the last to fall for Goa on the day. He missed century by one run, going down to Muda-

sir for 99 runs. At The end of days play, Goa was on 281 runs for the loss of eight wickets. Despite early hiccups they went on to score with a healthy run rate of 3.12 per over. The hosts missed the opportunity to skittle down visitors for low score keeping in view the fragile batting of JK. Fr JK, Ram Dayal took three wickets while as Samiullah and Parvez Rasool took two each. Mudasir chipped in with one wicket. For Goa, KA Vaz top scored with 99 while as AS Desai scored 71. Shukla scored 32.Day 1:First Inning Goa: 281/8 (KA Vaz 99, AS Desai 71, Ram Dayal 3wkts)
