Ranji Trophy 2022: Road of Test comeback gets tough as Ajinkya Rahane, Cheteshwar Pujara fail to deliver
Ajinkya Rahane’s stay at the crease lasted for only three balls as the Mumbai lad was dismissed by medium-pacer Lakshay Garg for a duck. When Rahane walked in to bat Mumbai were already struggling at 30 for 2 and his dismissal reduced his side to 30 for 3 in the Elite Group D match at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad.
However, Rahane scored a century in his previous Ranji Trophy match against Saurashtra.
For Cheteshwar Pujara too it was not a good day at the office as the Saurashtra lad could only last for six balls for his domestic side after being dismissed by medium-pacer Debabrata Pradhan for 8 against Odisha in Elite Group D match at the Sardar Patel Stadium B in Ahmedabad. In his short stay at the crease, Pujara went on to hit two boundaries.
In his previous Ranji Trophy match against Mumbai Pujara had scored a four-ball duck in the first innings but went on to score 91 of 83 balls in the second innings.
