NAGPUR: Bat once, bat big, get seven points: That, in short, will be Vidarbha’s gameplan against Manipur in their second Ranji Trophy match from Friday. Though the plot sounds a lot more about batting, the bowlers will be key. They will be expected to bowl out the minnows twice as soon as possible at the ADSA Railway Ground In Ahmedabad.
The first outing, against Services, was a good one for the Vidarbha bowling unit. The bowlers led by Aditya Thakare bundled out Services for just 155 in the second innings. The bowling attack now has Rajneesh Gurbani, in place of Yash Thakur.
