NEW DELHI: Karnataka skipper Mayank Agarwal rose to the occasion as he scored a fighting unbeaten century to take the hosts to 229 for five against Saurashtra at the end of the Day 1 of the Ranji Trophy semi-final in Bengaluru on Wednesday.
Karnataka, who lost half their side for 112 in 40.3 overs, had a horrible start after being put into bat. 87 overs were bowled on the opening day before the umpires called stumps.
