New Delhi, Nov 6 Chandrasekar Ganapthy's gritty 32
earned Tamil Nadu vital first innings lead as the visitors
gained three important points from their drawn tie with host
Railways in the Ranji Trophy Super League Group A match here
today.
With an outright win not among the possibilities, it was
a tug-of-war between both the sides for the crucial first
innings lead and Ganapathy's grit meant Tamil Nadu won two
more points than their hosts from the match.
Replying to Railways' first innings total of 327, Tamil
Nadu resumed on 312 for eight with Ganapthy and Rajamani
Jesuraj (8) shouldering the responsibility of bettering the
hosts' total and they did not let their side down.
The duo guided Tamil Nadu to 335 when Ganapthy fell after
his marathon 104-ball knock and the visitors eventually folded
for 337 in 151.3 overs. - (Agencies)
