Mumbai peg Delhi on the backfoot
Staff Reporter - 7 January 2001

Delhi U-16 failed to capitalise on a fine 159 run opening stand to end the second day at 206 for 4 in their quarterfinal match against Mumbai U-16 at the East Calcutta District Sports Council Ground in Kolkata on Sunday in the Vijay Merchant Trophy.

Replying to Mumbai's 328, Delhi were given a solid start by openers Pritpal Singh (77) and Shikar Dhawan (68) adding 159 runs in 48.2 overs. Pritpal was the first to reach his half century in 103 balls. He was also the first to be dismissed, trapped leg before by G Yadav. During a 202 minute stay at the crease, Pritpal faced 120 balls and hit eleven fours. Then the new batsman H Khullar returned to the pavilion the very next ball bowled by G Yadav.

With only fifteen more runs being added to the total, S Dhawan was run out. Dhawan in his 215 minute stay at the centre, faced 148 balls and found the boundary ropes nine times. G Yadav then came back to dismiss A Bali (5), stumped by PC Mayekar, to restrict Delhi to 170 for 4. At stumps, H Mehta (19) and K Rawat (20) were at the crease.

Earlier in the morning, resuming at the overnight score of 278 for 8, Mumbai were all out for 328. Yadav who remained unbeaten the previous evening was caught by A Nag off A Jain. The last basman V Yelligatti was unable to open his account and after facing nine balls was bowled by Sumit Kapoor.
