NAGPUR: Barring skipper Faiz Fazal (65; 193b, 8x4), the Vidarbha team continued to have an off day in office for the fourth day at Indore on Friday. Avesh Khan broke the backbone of Vidarbha batting once again. The pacer came up with a five-wicket haul and took Madhya Pradesh to a massive 205 runs victory in the Ranji Trophy match at Holkar Stadium.
Chasing 407 for victory, Vidarbha were bowled out for 201 in 73.1 overs. In the first innings as well, they had made just 160 and handed the advantage to the hosts very early in the match. Avesh, who took 12 wickets for 82 runs in the match, was the nemesis Vidarbha failed to tame.
