Ranji Trophy: Twin tons put Bengal in command vs Nagaland

KOLKATA: Bengal batters plundered runs in plenty to take control of their Ranji Trophy Elite Group 'A' match against Nagaland in Sovima, on the outskirts of Dimapur on Wednesday. Left-arm spinner Pradipta Pramanik finished with a career-best six-wicket haul as clean bowled overnight unbeaten batter Chopise Hopongkyu in the fourth ball of Day 2 morning as the Nagaland innings folded up at 166 without adding anything to the overnight score.

Bengal lost opener Koushik Ghosh (4) early, but Abhimanyu Easwaran and Sudip Gharami were in sublime form stitching together a 224-run second-wicket stand that saw the visitors maintain a healthy run-rate gathering 336 for four in 82 overs of play, thereby enjoying a healthy 170-run first-innings lead.
