| Ayush Badoni's double hundred dots North Zone's Duleep Trophy semifinal entry | | | 
Bengaluru, Aug 31: Ayush Badoni made a fluent double hundred in North Zone's comfortable entry into Duleep Trophy semifinals on the basis of first innings lead as their quarterfinal match against East Zone expectedly petered into a draw on the fourth and final day here Sunday.
Starting from overnight 388 for two, North was in no mood to declare early and ended up at 658 for four for a mammoth lead of 833 runs before both the teams shook hands for a draw.
Badoni (204 off 223 balls) and Kanhaiya Wadhawan (23) remained not out. Badoni made most of North’s decision to bat on, making his second first-class double century in some style.
Overnight 56, Badoni played a near flawless innings to bring his hundred in 123 balls with a single, and there was just a simple wave of the bat to celebrate the feat.
Even though he moved to 99 with a six off Manishi.
At the other end, skipper Ankit Kumar (198), who started the first session from 168, had a wonderful chance to notch up a double ton, but an attempt to pull pacer Mukhtar Hussain ended in the hands of Suraj Jaiswal at mid-on. (PTI) |
