Mumbai Remain 536/9 At Stumps, Day 2


Sarfaraz Khan is standing out there in the middle unbeaten on 221 off 276 balls and stands a chance of extending his record-breaking score on Day 3. No one could have expected Mumbai to make such a good recovery after going 37/3, but the Ajinkya Rahane-led side had other plans as they showed grit and determination to go beyond the score of 500.


Here's How the sessions played out on Day 2:



  • Morning Session: 26 overs, 101 runs, 2 wickets

  • Afternoon Session: 26 overs, 111 runs, 0 wickets

  • Evening Session: 18 overs, 87 runs, 3 wickets


Resuming the day from 237/4, registering 299 runs at a loss of 5 wickets is something Mumbai can take happily, as the pressure is now on Rest of India to pull-off a miracle to upset the reigning Ranji Trophy champions.
