Absolute carnage in Ahmedabad. Ishan Kishan turns the Vijay Hazare Trophy into his personal highlight reel, blasting a ridiculous 33-ball century for Jharkhand against Karnataka. It’s one of those innings where the bowlers have nowhere to hide, pace, spin, length, none of it matters once Kishan gets going.
Jharkhand pile on a mammoth 412 for 9 in their 50 overs, riding that fearless assault at the top. Karnataka are left staring at a scoreboard that barely feels real, the kind that changes the mood of a game before the chase even begins.
Jharkhand suffer a setback as Kumar Kushagra falls for 63, caught by Karun Nair off Shreyas Gopal. But Virat Singh holds firm on the other end, unbeaten on 86 off 65, as Ishan Kishan walks in to join him and steady the innings for Jharkhand.
Jharkhand continue to look strong with Virat Singh and Kumar Kushagra at the crease. Virat is unbeaten on 58 off 47, keeping one end steady, while Kushagra is lively with 39 off 28, and together they are anchoring Jharkhand’s innings comfortably.
Jharkhand reach 190 for 3 as Virat Singh and Kumar Kushagra take charge. Virat is unbeaten on 47, steady at one end, while Kumar Kushagra is leading the charge with 58 off 39, finding the gaps and keeping the scoreboard ticking. Virat now moves on to 58, and Jharkhand look in control.
Jharkhand reach 110 for 3 as Shubh Sharma falls for 15, bowled by Shreyas Gopal. Virat Singh remains unbeaten on 17, holding one end up as Jharkhand look to rebuild after the wicket.
Jharkhand are hunting for a steady partnership now, with Shikhar Mohan and Virat Singh taking charge to stabilize the innings after early setbacks.
Jharkhand face early blows as Karnataka strike twice. Utkarsh Singh goes cheaply, caught by Abhinav Manohar off Vidyadhar Patil, and Shubh Sharma is trapped by Shreyas Gopal after a brief 15-run stay. Shikhar Mohan steadies things with 24 not out, joined by Virat Singh, as Jharkhand try to rebuild.
Jharkhand take a hit early but don’t panic. Utkarsh Singh is on his way after edging one to Abhinav Manohar, Vidyadhar Patil the man doing the damage as Karnataka’s bowlers start with real purpose.
Shikhar Mohan is still there, holding one end up, and Shubh Sharma walks in to calm things down. Karnataka are already working their magic, but Jharkhand are trying to steady the ship.
