KOLKATA: The weather seems to be following Bengal this Ranji season. After missing out on some points against Uttar Pradesh and Chhattisgarh due to poor light conditions, Bengal got their campaign back on track with maximum points against Assam in the last match. But just when an upbeat Manoj Tiwary-led side got ready for their marquee clash against Mumbai at the Eden Garden here from Friday, the sky turned gloomy forcing both sides to call off their practice session on Thursday.
The Elite Group 'B' table also suddenly opened up with Mumbai, still on top with three successive wins, losing their last game against Uttar Pradesh and thus this game now turns out to be vital for both sides.
