Ranji Trophy 2010-11: Super League

[gaurav92]

Well he literally made the balk talk.If he can control his swing well, he is surely a contender for future.Great Talent.

[The Dark Horse]

great job, he swings the ball both ways but lets not overhype him:((

[rkt.india]

Sudeep Tyagi not getting picked. UP should have dropped a fat and unfit RPS and played Tyagi.

RPS went wicketless...They picked RPS coz of his Left arm variety and BHuvnesh Kumar coz of his alround ability...both couldnt get any wicket

[rkt.india]

I saw the bowling footage of Deepak Chehar on news channels...the pitch was green, weather was foggy and he was swinging the ball like PK does both in and out and at a much better pace than PK....One inswinging delivery was just a beauty pretty much like PK but at a better pace...He is a bit taller to PK as well around 6' 1" or 6'2" and a strongly built lad...lets see how he will bowl in second innings when wicket will be a bit drier and conditions wont help him

[rkt.india]

his action remines of of Alfred Absolem from hydrrbad or AP...not sure...he played in ICL took i think 6 wickets on debut on same kind of a track, bowls with new ball at a speed of 115-120 ks only...

It was not a lively wicket per se. Here is the report of of DAY ONE : PK, Piyush halt Punjab Indianexpress, Siddhartha Sharma, 02 November 2010 Meerut Big-time cricket always makes an impact in a small city. More so, if a match involves big-stage players like Yuvraj Singh, Rudra Pratap Singh, Mohd Kaif, Piyush Chawla and Praveen Kumar. A crowd of over 5000 had occupied their seats well before the Elite Group B match between Uttar Pradesh and Punjab had commenced at the Bhama Shah Ground on Monday. With autograph hunters hanging around the boundary ropes, Yuvraj Singh (52) entertained the crowd with eight boundaries and a six. But, they could post just 279/6 on a day where Punjab failed to seize the initiative after a great start on a placid turf. You had to look no further than the sightscreen to find the highlight of the day. Adjacent to it was a large poster of Yuvraj Singh and Praveen Kumar, with the local lad pointing his index finger heavenwards as if celebrating a wicket. It turned out to be great foresight on the organisers' part, as Kumar performed the customary celebration jig live on Monday, having castled Yuvraj on Day One of the Super League match between Uttar Pradesh and Punjab. The dashing left-handed batsman had just raced away to a half-century and looked set for a big one when Praveen crashed through the gates with a delivery that kept low. It was one of the three wickets that the medium pacer took on the day as Punjab, electing to bat, made 279 for six. At stumps, Karan Goel was on 56 while Harmeet Singh on 29. Punjab were off to a confident start, with Sarul Kanwar and Ravi Inder Singh putting together 55 runs for the first wicket. Kanwar was the more prolific, going after the UP fast bowlers, especially RP Singh. Praveen broke the partnership by first removing Ravi Inder, then Kanwar, who had made 42 off as many balls. Yuvraj's 98-minute stay was cut short soon after lunch by local boy, Praveen, who got a quicker one to come back and uproot the leg stump. Prior to that delivery, leg-spinner Piyush Chawla accounted for skipper Pankaj Dharmani (2). Yuvraj was initially kept under check by Praveen. But, thereafter, the one-day specialist was unstoppable. Two wickets off consecutive deliveries meant Yuvraj started cautiously and, along with Udai Kaul (27), rebuild the innings with a 61-run partnership for the third wicket. A mix-up led to the departure of Kaul, who found short by debutant Digvijay Singh Rawat's throw from silly point. The UP bowlers too failed to take control after pushing Punjab on the backfoot at 143/5 in the 35th over. Vishwas Bhalla (32) and Karan Goel batted patiently and put on 72 for the sixth wicket. Bhuvneshwar Kumar looked harmless, hardly troubling Uday Kaul and Yuvraj Singh. Uday looked good, timing the ball perfectly, but his innings was cut short by a mix-up with Yuvraj. The latter, though, kept going while entertaining the crowd with his drives and back-foot punches. Punjab were 139 at lunch. but Chawla struck after the break, trapping Pankaj Dharmani in front. Five runs later, PK sent Yuvraj back for 52. But Vishwas Bhalla and Karan Goel added 71 runs for the sixth wicket to steady the ship before Chawla again provided the breakthrough, trapping Bhalla (32). Brief scores: Punjab 1 st Inngs 279/6 (Karan Goel batting 56, Harmeet Singh Bansal batting 28, Yuvraj Singh 52; Praveen Kumar 3/68, Piyush Chawla 2/51) vs Uttar Pradesh

Toothless Delhi slip on placid track Subhash Rajta, Hindustan Times New Delhi, November 02, Something has to go terribly wrong somewhere if a part-time bowler ends up bowling the most number of overs in a day. Either the rest of the bowlers did not pull their weight, or the team combination was faulty, or there’s something iffy with the wicket. For Delhi, it was a combination of all three that saw their skipper Mithun Manhas take up the responsibility of the main bowler, reeling away 16 overs and picking up the only two wickets to fall. As a result, Bengal, thanks to a superb unbeaten 150 by opener Arindam Das, ended Day 1 of their Ranji Trophy Elite Division Group A tie on a comfortable 313 for two. Delhi’s problems began with the wicket. Notwithstanding all the hoopla for almost a year now, following the abandoned ODI against Sri Lanka, the wicket turned out to be a typical Kotla track – having little bounce and turn as Delhi coach Manoj Prabhakar put it. As this was the first match on the track after some remedial work, it’s expected to play a bit low and slow. But the authorities concerned could have left some more grass on it, especially when the Delhi team management had asked for it. The pressure of being under the International Cricket Council (ICC) scanner and fear of something untoward happening seem to have forced the authorities to play it safe and dish out a lifeless wicket. Delhi would be naïve to blame the wicket for all their woes, and Prabhakar was clear about it. "Yes, there was little assistance from the wicket, but they could have at least bowled a better line and length and showed a more aggressive and positive approach," he said. While all the bowlers had a pretty ordinary day, leg spinner Chetanya Nanda looked completely off colour. He had problems with his run-up – he bowled seven no-balls – and his length allowed batsmen to pull him repeatedly. Delhi’s decision to field four seamers, including all-rounder Rajat Bhatia, and a lone spinner, too, is questionable, given the nature of the Kotla track. Vikas Mishra, a promising left-arm spinner, could have given more teeth to Delhi’s attack on this track. While it turned out a forgettable day for Delhi, Bengal had several reasons to look pleased. Apart from Das’s unbeaten ton, Shreevats Goswami batted well for his 68. The duo put up 133 runs on the board to seize control of the situation. Later, skipper Manoj Tiwary chipped in with a solid unbeaten 47. With both Das and Tiwary going strong, Delhi look to be in for another long day on the field. Ball doesn't talk but makes news Indianexpress, The Delhi bowlers had a horrid day with the ball on a slow and low Ferozeshah Kotla wicket, yet the red cherry made news when Bengal notched up 313 for two and opener Arindam Das struck an unbeaten 150 in an Elite Group A game. The ball had to be changed as early as in the second over of the day. However, it was shortly after tea when television cameras showed Delhi medium-pacer Parvinder Awana running his finger around the seam, which coincided with a period when the ball started doing much more than it had done till then, and had seemingly deteriorated inconsistently, that officials got into action. Match referee B Raghunath and the umpires Nikhil Patwardan and SS Shamsuddin felt that the ball must be inspected. It was in the 64th over of the day that the cameras zeroed in on Awana's finger as he was walking back to his run-up. In the 68th over the umpires consulted each other and had a word with Delhi skipper Mithun Manhas, while match referee Raghunath came to speak briefly to the umpires an over later. While one of the match officials confirmed that the sudden change in behaviour of the ball and the television footage necessitated a brief inspection of the ball, no official warning was issued to the Delhi camp till late on Monday. Awana finished the day's play with figures of 11-1-50-0 and continued to bowl after the match referee found it necessary to stop play and have a word with the field umpires. Awana, on his part, said that the ball had probably got damaged after it was hit around and that nothing sinister should be attached to the change in behaviour of the ball. "The umpires were informed that the ball had some mud on it and that it needed to be cleaned. I wasn't doing anything which was illegal and nor did I receive any official warning," Awana said after the day's game. Under the Laws of Cricket (law 42; fair and unfair play) mud can be removed from a ball only under supervision of the umpires.

Arindam makes a dash for Bengal against Delhi Delhi coach Manoj Prabhakar wouldn't have liked what he saw of either the pitch at the Ferozeshah Kotla or the figures on the manual scorecard at the far-end at stumps on Day One of the Elite Group A game against Bengal. More... Arindam makes a dash Indianexpress, Express news service, 02 November 2010 Delhi coach Manoj Prabhakar wouldn't have liked what he saw of either the pitch at the Ferozeshah Kotla or the figures on the manual scorecard at the far-end at stumps on Day One of the Elite Group A game against Bengal. Two days ago, Prabhakar had expressed disappointment after getting a whiff of how the wicket would be bereft of grass. On Monday, as the Bengal batsmen piled on the runs and the Delhi medium pacers and lone frontline spinner Chetnya Nanda wilted, it turned into a forgettable day for the hosts. Bengal finished the day at 313 for two. The man who made the most out of the situation was Bengal opener Arindam Das, who toiled on a wicket on which the odd ball kept extremely low. During his 238-ball stay, which touched 387 minutes, Das, at least for the time being, removed the uncertainty that has marked his future over the past year or so. Bengal opener Arindam Das was a study in concentration as he batted through the opening day of the Ranji Trophy group A Super League game, against Delhi, at the Kotla, on Monday when the slow pace of the track and the low bounce offered him greater challenges that the home bowlers. Remaining unbeaten with 150 (238 balls, 19 fours), the 29-year-old ensured that Bengal held the upperhand, sharing century stands with opening partner Sreevats Goswami (61) and skipper Manoj Tiwary (batting 47) for the first and unfinished third wicket, leaving the Delhi camp in trouble. Last year, he was ignored from the probables list and then dropped ahead of the one-dayers, but as usual Das put his head down and made runs and found his way back into the squad. In a Bengal line-up that includes skipper Manoj Tiwary, Das has often not got his due in spite of playing as an opener. That said, his average, just a shade below 35, also means he hasn't always done full justice to the opportunities available to him at the top of the order. Arindam, who has served Bengal cricket for close to a decade without ever drawing national attention, was a personification of focus. His approach was that of a batsman who knew what exactly to expect from the Kotla pitch and play in an unhurried manner. Clearly, he conquered the bogey of low bounce with a fair measure of comfort. In scoring his seventh first class century, he did well not to attempt playing across the line, drawing praise from Delhi coach Manoj Prabhakar. Arindam got a hundred against Delhi at the Jadavpur University, Salt Lake campus ground last season too but that came in the second innings of the match that was heading to a draw. On Monday, on an opening day track, he stayed focussed and did his team proud. Tiwary, who had done his side a good turn by calling the coin right and opting to bat first, continued the good work when he walked in to bat after debutant Abhishek Chowdhary (20) was trapped in front by Mithun Manhas. Tiwary showcased his intent to play a long innings and help Bengal along to a big first innings score. Earlier, after he had done the hard yards and gained the psychological edge over the home side with some attacking strokes, Goswami gifted his wicket to Manhas. Lured to attempt the aerial route, he ended up offering a tame catch to mid-on. Till that moment, the 21-year-old Goswami had played an attractive venture, driving elegantly through the covers, punishing leg-spinner Chetanya Nanda for pitching short and pulling Parvinder Awana to the square leg boundary. With his brand of intelligent off-spin bowling, Manhas was the only bowler who troubled the Bengal batsmen. The others, barring the workhorse Rajat Bhatia, lacked the discipline that the track demanded of them, erring in line and length. Prabhakar conceded that while the track was hardly helpful to the bowlers, they needed to show a more positive attitude when they return on Tuesday. Bengal will be keen to extend its domination by winning more sessions and then pile the pressure on the home batsmen in what is clearly a battle for the first innings lead. Using the opportunity On Monday, Das made full use of the conditions, which was largely determined by a benign wicket, to play out a patient and potentially match-changing innings. Bengal under new coach WV Raman and Tiwary are trying to rebuild in the post-Sourav Ganguly, Deep Dasgupta and Rohan Gavaskar-era and Das's unbeaten century was just what the team needed on the first day of the Ranji opener. Monday's effort meant the world to Das. He added 133 with fellow opener Shreevats Goswami, 70 with Abhishek Chowdhury and had added an unbeaten 110 with Tiwary when play was called off. "I would rate this as a special knock. There was a lot of pressure after last season, more so since I was not initially picked and then wasn't the first choice for one-dayers. But this is a great way to start off the season," Das said. Delhi's bowlers didn't help their cause by bowling 13 no-balls. Skipper Mithun Manhas had to bowl 16 overs of off-spin for the two wickets to fall on the day, while Nanda, the only spinner included in the squad was guilty of bowling seven no-balls and had nothing else to show for the day. Left-arm paceman Pradeep Sangwan also bowled five no-balls to add to the hosts' woes. Brief scores: Bengal 1st inngs 313/2 (Arindam Das batting 150, Shreevats Goswami 68; Mithun Manhas 2/47) vs Delhi

Thaker knock keeps Gujarat on track against Railways A patient 54 from Bhavik Thaker helped Gujarat score 234 for 4 on Day one of their Super League tie against hosts Railways at the Karnail Singh Stadium. More... Thaker knock keeps Gujarat on track HT Correspondent, Hindustan Times New Delhi, November 02, 2010 A patient 54 from Bhavik Thaker helped Gujarat score 234 for 4 on Day one of their Super League tie against hosts Railways at the Karnail Singh Stadium. Railways who last clinched the coveted domestic title in the 2004-05 season, won the toss and put the opposition in on a track that has traditionally favoured spin. Openers Jay Desai (26) and Priyank Panchal (16) began on a cautious note for the visitors. Desai in particular, looked in good touch as he smashed three boundaries early in his innings. But the seasoned campaigner in Sanjay Banger ensured that the promising innings was cut short when he found Desai's leg right in front of the wicket. Just when it looked like the hosts would go for the kill, Niraj Kumar (46) and Thaker rose to the occasion and consolidated the innings. The 78th over on Day One, bowled by Faiz Fazal, summed up the day's frustration for the Railways. It started with Gujarat breaching the 200-run mark through a square drive from Bhavik Thaker, and there was more to come. The next couple of balls were duly dispatched to backward of square leg boundary and a six over square leg fence, respectively. But the die was cast early on by their openers � Jay Desai and Priyank Panchal � who had the difficult job of seeing off the new ball on a track that had plenty of encouragement for the seam bowlers. Playing cautious and waiting for the loose balls to score, the duo set the tone for the Gujarat innings. The visitors put on 234 for the loss of four wickets when stumps were drawn on Monday at the Karnail Singh Stadium, with Thaker unbeaten on 54 and debutant Prathmesh Parmar giving him company on 24. Though the openers did not score big � Desai made 26 while Panchal scored 16 � the duo frustrated the hosts for 27 overs after they were put in to bat by Railways skipper Murali Kartik. Surviving the initial burst by Railways seamers Krishnakant Upadhyay and JP Yadav, the Gujarat openers had done enough to bat out the first session. But a couple of strikes in quick succession meant the Railways appeared to have salvaged something from a somewhat disappointing start. Sanjay Bangar had Desai rooted in front of the wicket and, four balls later, Shailender Gehlot had Panchal removed in similar fashion as the hosts clawed their way back into the game. But the experienced duo of Niraj Patel and Parthiv Patel then stitched up a partnership of 74 for the third wicket to stave off the danger. The partnership again thrived on loose deliveries and Gujarat batsmen had enough of them to keep pushing up the scoreboard. Parthiv was the only wicket to fall in the second session when Yadav, easily the best bowler on show, had him brilliantly caught in the second slips by a diving V Cheluvuraj. Two balls after tea, it was Niraj's turn to walk back after a mix-up between him and Thaker saw him stranded mid pitch. Having made 46, Niraj was looking set for a big score at that point. Thaker, meanwhile, thrived on the waiting game after a nervous start. Two caught-behind appeals were turned down against him. But once settled he took full toll on the scoring chances. Railways coach Abhay Sharma thought his bowlers could have bowled better than what they did. "We gave few easy runs. We could have done much better. We have an experienced line up and I'm sure we will rectify our mistakes," he said. While Parthiv credited his openers for seeing off the new ball. "They played for nearly 30 overs and paved the way for us. Ok we didn't score big but we struck partnerships today. 234/4 is a pretty good score on this difficult wicket," he said. Brief scores: Gujarat 1st innings 234/4 in 90 overs (Bhavik Thaker batting 52, Neeraj Patel 48, Parthiv Patel 36, Prathmesh Parmar batting 24, Shailender Gehlot 1/46, Sanjay Bangar 1/32) vs Railways

Patience pays: Jaffer scores ton, Rohit misses mark against Saurashtra While the stylist Rohit Sharma perished seven runs short off a well-deserved century, at the other end, skipper Wasim Jaffer gave him another lesson on conjuring up centuries in first-class cricket. More... Patience pays: Jaffer scores ton, Rohit misses mark Indianexpress, Devendra Pandey, 02 November 2010 As delectable a proposition as it is, watching Rohit Sharma bat can be frustrating. The right-hander plays a classy cover-drive with the same languidness with which he throws away his wicket after getting a start. And till the time he scooped a Ravindra Jadeja delivery to mid-on, Sharma had been in his elements at the Mumbai Cricket Association's (MCA) BKC ground on Monday. Nothing that the Saurashtra bowlers had dished out during his 103-minute stay till then had made the slightest of impact on the 23-year-old, who played off the front and back foot with consummate ease, meeting the ball with the middle of the bat often. But while the stylist perished seven runs short off a well-deserved century, at the other end, skipper Wasim Jaffer gave him another lesson on conjuring up centuries in first-class cricket. Their 147-run partnership off 155 balls put the defending champions in the driver's seat before late wickets saw them finish Day One at 342 for seven, with Ajit Agarkar and Ramesh Powar at the crease. Considering the amount of runs he has amassed in the last few seasons, watching the 32-year-old Mumbai skipper score his 40th first-class century almost seemed an inevitable beginning to the Ranji season. But while it is highly unlikely that Jaffer, who scored 138 eventually, can force his way into national reckoning at this stage, every single inning of Sharma this season will fall under the selectors' scanner, especially with the 2011 World Cup around the corner. No wonder then that Sharma, whose 93 came off just 86 balls, including 14 fours and two sixes, was more concerned about the time he spent at the crease and how he dealt with the Saurashtra bowlers rather than the runs itself. "These runs are too important for me at this stage and everyone knows why. But for me, middling each ball is more crucial. I middled nearly 80 off the 90-odd balls, which is a good sign for me," Sharma told The Indian Express after the day's play. While Sharma easily overshadowed his senior partner in their partnerhsip, the two boundaries that stood out in Sharma's innings were a cover-drive that he played off Sandeep Maniar early in his knock and a pick-up shot off Jadeja that cleared the ropes by a distance. While praising Sharma's knock, skipper Jaffer was quick to note that it was time for Sharma to take up more responsibility. "The best part of batting with him is that runs keep coming. Rohit is a free-flowing player and gets good starts. It's just that he needs to be more disciplined to convert those explosive starts into three-figures and beyond, which will help him and the team as well," he said. The home team lost their way after his dismissal. Four wickets fell for 42 runs as the Saurashtra spinners ensured a happy finish to an otherwise difficult day for the visitors. Mumbai scramble after a good start Wasim Jaffer and Rohit Sharma shine but a mini collapse spoils the show for Mumbai against Saurashtra We have often heard our bosses saying that it’s good but it could have been much better. Mumbai cricket team predicament after the end of the first days play in the Ranji Trophy season opener against Saurashtra is something similar. On Monday, at the Mumbai Cricket Association Ground at the Bandra Kurla Complex, they were sitting pretty at 252 for 2 in 54 overs, but were reduced to 340 for seven at the stumps. Instead of being in a position of absolute command they have shown the visitors some light at the end of the tunnel. They will now be hoping that not out batsmen Ajit Agarkar (10) and Iqbal Abdulla (1) take them past 400 so that they can put a Cheteshwar Pujara-less Saurashtra on the mat and press for all-important outright win in the tough Group A. Riding high But there sure was a time in the day that it looked that Mumbai will cross 400. Wasim Jaffer and Rohit Sharma had come together in the 29th over of the day. Saurashtra had won the toss and asked Mumbai to bat. Injury to Ajinkaya Rahane and a one match ban for Dhaval Kulkarni meant that Omkar Gurav and Javed Khan were handed their Ranji cap. Mumbai’s experiment with a new opening pair of Gurav and Sushant Marathe didn’t meet success when Gurav edged Jayesh Odedra into the hands of keeper Sagar Jogyani. Mumbai score at that point was 37. Marathe (45) fell to the same combination minutes before lunch that Mumbai took at 118-2. The post-lunch session belonged to an aggressive Sharma and sublime Jaffer. Jaffer reached his 50 with nine boundaries. Sharma had in an earlier interaction with Mumbai Mirror expressed his desire to express himself freely during the season and that’s exactly how he started. He dealt in fours and sixes. On a track that had true bounce, he cover drove and pulled with equal ease. He stepped out to both fast-bowler, Odedra and spinner Rakesh Dhruv to hit them over the sight-screen. He raced to his 50 in just 40 balls with six hits to the boundary and two over it. Fast track The hundred of the partnership came in just 99 balls. One man in the Saurashtra outfit that all were looking forward to ball was Jaydev Unadkat. The left-arm fast bowler who had although been part of the Indian team was making his Ranji debut. But he went wicket less in the morning session and when he was introduced after 14 overs in the post lunch session, Sharma welcomed him with two fours, one pull and another cut. Unadkat almost had his revenge but a strong caught behind appeal was turned down. Sharma was on 85. But it didn’t hurt the visitors much as Sharma (93) balloned Ravinder Jadeja ball to mid-on where Unadkat took a smart catch. But Sharma’s fall triggered a collapse. Abhishek Nayar mistimed a sweep-shot off Jadeja. The skier was caught by Jogyani. Prashant Naik failed to read a straighter one from left-arm spinner Rakesh Dhruv that crashed into his stumps. Mumbai’s disaster was complete when Jaffer after scoring a sparkling 138 edged one to Jogyani. The bowler gain was Dhruv. Brief scores: Mumbai 1st inngs 340/7 (Wasim Jaffer 138, Rohit Sharma 93; Ravindra Jadeja 3/100) vs Saurashtra

Balaji scalps four as Tamil Nadu takes control against Assam More... Balaji scalps four as Tamil Nadu takes control Sports Reporter FIRING ON ALL CYLINDERS:L. Balaji took four wickets for 53 as Assam was dismissed for 184 in its first innings. Chennai: An incisive spell of seam bowling from Lakshmipathy Balaji helped Tamil Nadu wrest the initiative on day one of its Ranji Trophy Elite Group ‘A' match against Assam at the M.A. Chidambaram Stadium here on Monday. Sent in to bat on a wicket that afforded plenty of carry in the first two sessions, Assam was bowled out for 184, with Balaji scalping four. In reply, the host ended the day at 21 without loss. Assam lost Dheeraj Jadhav, its highest scorer from last season, in the 14 {+t} {+h} over of the morning, with the score reading 24. The southpaw edged to wicket-keeper Dinesh Karthik while attempting to slash debutant Sunil Sam. The other two batsmen in Assam's top three fell to similar deliveries in Balaji's second spell, angled across them from right arm over, pitched just short of a length. Sridharan Sriram went first, gliding his former teammate to gully. Parvez Aziz used his feet well against the off spin of R. Ashwin and survived a bouncer barrage from Balaji to reach 36 before hanging his bat outside off to a ball of teasing line. S. Badrinath pouched the chance smartly, diving low to his left from second slip. Balaji's next over saw Amol Muzumdar depart , nicking one that left him off the wicket. In a five-over spell before lunch, Balaji took three for 14. The second session brought Assam its biggest partnership, Deepak Sharma and Tarjinder Singh adding 45. Both batsmen fell in the same over — Tarjinder caught behind foxed by a loopy doosra from Ashwin and Deepak run out by a magnificent display of reflexes and intuition from Abhinav at short leg. Balaji then claimed his fourth with a monstrous leg-cutter that 'keeper-batsman Kunal Saikia did well to edge. Brought on late in the day, Aushik Srinivas picked up two wickets, getting rid of Dhiraj Goswami and Sujay Tarafdar.
