Vidarbha Fold Out For 105 In Reply To Mumbai's 224

After Vidarbha had won the toss and elected to bowl first, their bowlers did not disappoint as Mumbai batters failed to take the advantage after starting off well with the bat. However, it was down to the efforts of Shardul Thakur who scored a valuable 75 off 69 balls, to take the home team towards a respectable 224.

Harsh Dubey and Yash Thakur took three-wicket hauls each for Vidarbha. In reply, Akshay Wadkar-led side could not handle the pace and lengths of the Mumbai bowlers, as they folded out for 105, handing a lead of 119 to Mumbai.

Sachin Tendulkar slammed the batting performance of the Mumbai team calling it 'ordinary'. He wrote, After a good start, the @MumbaiCricAssoc batters played some ordinary cricket. On the other hand, Vidarbha have kept things simple and put Mumbai under pressure. I am sure there will be many exciting sessions in this game as the match unfolds. The wicket has grass cover, but the ball will turn and assist spinners as the game progresses. Vidarbha will be happy with the way they got back in the game after a solid partnership by the Mumbai openers. The first session belonged to Vidarbha."
