Delhi draw with Himachal Pradesh
Staff Reporter - 22 November 2001

Delhi, by virtue of a first-innings lead, gained five points from their drawn Ranji Trophy league match against Himachal Pradesh at Bilaspur.

Himachal Pradesh, staring the day at a strong 327/4, proceeded to add 94 runs before declaring at 421/7. Rajiv Nayyar, who remained unbeaten on 84, was a figure of patience, grinding the Delhi attack for almost 6 hours and 225 balls, hitting only four fours in his knock.

Set a nigh-impossible total of 361 for victory, Delhi opted for batting practice. Gautam Gambhir made 42 and Akash Chopra an unbeaten 86 off 168 balls. Delhi reached 219/3 at stumps, with none of the Himachal Pradesh bowlers able to dent the batting line-up further.
