NEW DELHI: Gujarat stormed into the Ranji Trophy semifinals with a commanding innings-and-98-run victory over Saurashtra on Tuesday. Led by pacers Priyajit Jadeja and Arzan Nagwaswalla, Gujarat dismantled Saurashtra’s batting lineup, dismissing them for 197 in their second innings — well short of the 295-run target needed to make Gujarat bat again.
Resuming at 33 for no loss, Saurashtra’s hopes of staging a fightback were quickly dashed by Gujarat’s relentless pace attack. Right-arm quick Priyajit starred with 4/32, while left-arm seamer Nagwaswalla chipped in with 3/54.
