Agarkar routs Baroda

April 25, 2003 21:19 IST

Mumbai made a great start to their Ranji Trophy semi-final as they bundled out Baroda for a paltry 130 runs and also went on to take an eight-run first innings lead with seven wickets in hand on the opening day in Baroda on Friday.

Mumbai captain Paras Mhambrey put Baroda in to bat first and the decision paid rich dividends as Ajit Agarkar wrecked havoc upon the Baroda batting line-up with a five-wicket haul.

After opener Satyajit Parab was dismissed for nought, Baroda captain Connor Williams and 17-year-old Rakesh Solanki put on 75 runs for the second wicket in the best stand of the Baroda innings.

However, four quick wickets fell in quick succession which completely derailed the Baroda innings.

At stumps, Mumbai's Nitin Shetty was batting on 69, with 12 fours, and Bhavin Thakkar was on three.

Zaheer Khan took two of the three wickets to fall in Mumbai innings. The third wicket was taken by Rakesh Patel.

Vinayak Mane, Wasim Jaffer and Amol Mazumdar fell cheaply, scoring 18, 22, 17 runs respectively.

Earlier, Nayan Mongia (25), Zaheer Khan (14) and Ajit Bhoite (13) made vital contributions as Baroda surpassed the hundred-run mark.
