Bengal’s Sudeep Kumar Gharami in dream form. The young batsman also had a great innings in the Ronji semi-final. He missed out on a triple century by one run against Andhra. Sudeep Kumar Gharami expressed that regret against Jammu and Kashmir. At the end of the first day he was unbeaten on 136, and Bengal’s score in the big match was 249/5 based on his power. Patience and perfect shot selection is the main strength of the team’s innings.
The ongoing Ranji Trophy semi-final started in Kalyani on Sunday. Jammu and Kashmir won the toss and sent Bengal to bat first. Along with Sudeep, Abhimanyu 49 and Shahbaz 42 made important contributions. After a massive innings of 299 runs in the quarter-finals, Sudeep’s consistency in the semis also kept the opposition under pressure.
The Jammu and Kashmir team is playing in the semi-finals for the first time but showing enough determination in the fight. Aqib Nabi and Sunil Kumar took two wickets each to halt Bengal’s run-rate, while Abid Mushtaq got a breakthrough. A strong bowling attack is their main hope, with which they are looking to get back into the match. But Sudeep handled the Jammu and Kashmir attack very well with a cool head.
The Bengal team is yet to lose this season under the supervision of coach Laxmiratan Shukla. With Mohammed Shami, Akash Deep and Mukesh Kumar in the pace department, there is confidence to break the opposition batting line-up. As a result, Bengal’s aim on the second day of the match is to make a big score, and Jammu-Kashmir will want to pick up quick wickets and take the rush of the match in their own hands.
