J & K fights back through Rashid and Ian Dev
The Hindu
The side reaches 190 for four at close after Karnataka declares at 298 for three
The ball hissed, spun, reared like a cobra and brushed Fazil Rashid’s blade. For the batter, it was the kiss of death.
Shreyas Gopal’s exuberant celebration reflected the importance of the scalp. The Karnataka leg-spinner had broken the developing fourth-wicket partnership of 79 between Rashid and skipper Ian Dev Singh.
Shreyas, bounding in and getting some fizz off the pitch, scalped three but Jammu & Kashmir, set a mammoth target of 508, fought hard to finish Saturday, day three of this Ranji contest at the IIT-Chemplast ground, at 190 for four.
Ian Dev (65 batting, 113b, 8x4, 2x6) impressed with his free-flowing strokeplay; both Shreyas and off-spinner K. Gowtham were struck beautifully for straight sixes.
And Abdul Samad (21 batting), a talented batter, took Shreyas on, dumping him over wide long-on and extra-cover for sixes.
Earlier, Rashid (65, 140b, 8x4, 2x6) caught the eye. The pacemen were driven firmly. Shreyas was sent crashing through covers and then pulled for the maximum.
Jammu & Kashmir was dented early. Prasidh Krishna bowled a series of away going deliveries and then set Qamar Iqbal up by bringing one back; the batter was leg-before.
