Delhi enter semifinal on first innings lead
Partab Ramchand - 10 December 1999

Predictably enough, Delhi entered the semifinals of the Cooch Behar Trophy at Jamshedpur on Friday. They were already in a commanding position at stumps on the second day and the only interest was whether they would translate their superiority into an outright victory. However Gujarat put up an improved show in their second innings and made sure that Delhi would qualify for the penultimate round only on their first innings lead of 207 runs.

Resuming at 341 for eight, Delhi were all out for 376 in their first innings. KD Desai finished with six wickets for 107 runs from 46.5 overs. In their second innings, Gujarat lost half the side for 92 runs but a sixth wicket stand of 56 runs between KD Desai (57, 104 balls, eight fours) and BD Thaker (29 not out) helped them reach 185 for seven when stumps were finally drawn. AK Suman and Suhail Sharma took three wickets each.
