BENGALURU: Madhya Pradesh’s magnificent response to Mumbai’s 374, which saw them cruise to 368 for four -- just six runs short of a first innings lead -- on day three of their Ranji Trophy final at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bangalore, has raised their supporters' hopes of securing a maiden Ranji Tophy title.
While Yash Dubey (133) and Shubham Sharma (116) slammed centuries, Rajat Patidar, who had smashed a brilliant hundred for Royal Challengers Bangalore in IPL 2022 playoffs recently, cracked a superb unbeaten 67 to ensure a commanding position for Madhya Pradesh.
