Tripura lose to Gujarat by an innings:
Nov 18: Tripura lost to Gujarat by an innings and 72 runs in their four-day Ranji Trophy Plate Group match on the final day at the Sardar Patel Gujarat Stadium at Motera near Ahmedabad today.
Hosts’ bowler Ashok Makda ripped through Tripura batting line up with impressive figures of 31.4-7-90-7.
Tripura, resuming at the overnight score of 154 for four, collapsed today at the total score of 282 in their
second innings, failing even to wipe out the first innings deficit of 354 runs.
Tripura, who needed another 200 runs to ask Gujarat to bat for the second time, however, collapsed in 110.4 overs when they resumed the innings today, adding just 128 runs to the overnight score of 154 for four.
Manoj Singh (73) and N Shetty (80) were the only two batsmen to resist the Gujarat bowling. Manoj's 73 was studded with ten 4s off 183 balls and in a stay of 223 minutes. Shetty's 80 had nine hits to the fence and came off 143 balls, in a stay of 206 minutes.
Gujarat, upon winning the toss on the opening day, had asked Tripura to bat and had bundled out the visitors for a paltry 116. Gujarat had declared their first innings at 470 for six thereby gaining a huge lead of 354 runs.
Captain Parthiv Patel had scored 158 runs while B D Thaker had remained not out on 154 in their first innings.
Gujarat now top Group A with 11 points having won all their two matches so far. They had beaten Assam by 248 runs in their earlier match from November 3 to 6 at Motera.

Ranji Trophy Plate Group match
Defeat stares Tripura against Gujarat:
Nov 17: Tripura were in a precarious position to avoid an innings defeat against Gujarat at the close of third day's play in four-day Plate Division Ranji Trophy match at the Sardar Patel Gujarat Stadium at Motera, near Ahmedabad, today.
Tripura ended the day at 154 for four and they need another 200 runs to ask Gujarat to bat for a second time or the visitors will have to play the whole day tomorrow to avoid an innings defeat after conceding 354-run first innings lead to the hosts who declared at 470 for six earlier in the day.
The visitors' opening pair of Manoj Singh (73) and Subrajit Roy (24) made a good start with 68 runs for the first wicket before Roy was caught by Popat off the bowling of Ashok Makda. In his individual score of 24, Subrajit faced 71 balls and had three boundaries to his credit.
Before stumps were drawn, Tripura lost three more wickets -- Manoj (73), S D Chowdhury (16) and R Banik (22).
Earlier in the day, Gujarat's overnight unbeaten pair of B D Thakre and Timil Patel, who had individual scores of 102 and one respectively, resumed from 380 for five to addanother 49 runs between them before Timil was caught by Chanda off Saha.
Gujarat captain Parthiv Patel called back his boys as soon as Thakre crossed 150 with team's total reading 470 runs for the loss of six wickets, thus asking Tripura to take their second essay with a massive deficit of 354 runs in the first innings.
An outright victory will fetch Gujarat five points while an innings or ten-wicket win will give them another extra point.
In case of a draw, Gujarat will get three points on the basis of the first innings lead, while Tripura will get one.
Brief Scorecard:
Tripura 1st innings: 116 all out in 56.4 overs (Manoj Singh 33; Timil Patel 5/15, MB Parmar 3/37)
Gujarat 1st innings: 470 for six declared (Parthiv Patel 158, BD Thaker not out 154, Niraj Patel 42, DM Popat 40; TS Saha 3/137, TK Chanda 2/82)
Tripura 2nd innings: 154/4 (Manoj Singh 73)

Assam-Gujarat Plate Division Ranji match
Gujarat well placed against Assam in Ranji Trophy Day One
Ahmedabad, Nov 3:
Despite scoring just 228 runs in the first innings, hosts Gujarat were comfortably placed after sending back four top order batsmen of the visiting Assam team for just 56 runs on the first day of four-day plate division Ranji Trophy match at the Sardar Patel Guajrat Stadium at Motera near here today.
Gujarat, who are aiming to regain their berth in the Elite Group after being relegated to plate division on the basis of their dismal performance in last Ranji season of 2006-07, got into a comfortable position, thanks to their main strike bowler Siddharth Trivedi, who missed the last season due to injury.
The speedster took two early wickets to bring his side back into the game. Trivedi struck in the first over and claimed the wicket of S Bhagawati, Assam's opener, who was brilliantly caught by wicket-keeper Parthiv Patel when team's total was just two runs and his individual contribution was just one run.
As if this was not enough, second opener S Das also made an early exit, at the same score, when he was caught by Niraj Patel off the bowling of Makda.
At this point, Assam's scorecard read two runs for the loss of two wickets. Before the close of play, the visitors lost two more wickets -- N H Bordoloi, who was the second victim of Makda, and Tarjinder Singh, who fell prey to T K Patel. Bordoloi and Singh
made 13 and 19 runs respectively.
When stumps were drawn, the visitors were four down for 56 runs, with S Ramesh and S Sharath unbeaten on individual scores of 16 and zero respectively.
Earlier, Gujarat, who were asked to bat first by rival captain S Sharath, made a slow but steady start. However, debutant opener Hem Joshipura returned to pavilion when he was adjudged LBW off the bowling of S Suresh. His individual score was 14, while his team's total was 23. The other opener, Nilesh Modi, also made early exit by scoring just 17 runs.
Then skipper Parthiv Patel, along with Niraj Patel, gave some steadiness to Gujarat's batting. But at the team total of 88, Parthiv was caught by Singh off Goswami's bowling.
He made a personal contribution of 49 runs, while Niraj scored 31.
Other batsman who played significant innings for the hosts was Digant Popat who hit 63 runs. He was the only bastman to keep one end intact while witnessing the fall of wickets at the other end as Gujarat lost their four bastmen -- number seven to 10 – for just eight runs.
For the visitors, the most successful bowlers were K Das and S Suresh, who took four wickets each for 73 and 46 runs respectively. D S Goswami and A Konwar took one wicket each.
Earlier, both the teams introduced new faces in their squads. Wicket-keeper Rajdeep Das and K Das got their debuts while Gujarat included N Raval in their team.
The Teams:
Gujarat: N D Modi, H R Joshipura, Parthiv Patel (wk; captain), A M Makda, N Raval, M H Parmar, N K Patel, T K Patel, B D Thaker, S K Trivedi
Assam: S Sharath (captain), Rajdeep Das (wk), S Bhagawati, NH Bordoloi, K Das, S Das, DS Goswami, A Konwar, S Ramesh, S Suresh , Tarjinder Singh
