Karnataka folded for 345 in reply to Maharashtra’s modest first essay total of 163, thereby taking a huge lead. Maharashtra’s chance of securing a quarter-final berth was crushed as they were handed a 10-wicket thrashing by Karnataka on the third day of their Ranji Trophy Group B match.
Having taken a 182-run first-innings lead, Karnataka bowled out Maharashtra for 218 in the second innings, which left them to chase just 37 runs for victory.
Karnataka openers — R Samarth and Kaunain Abbas — achieved the target without much fuss to secure a bonus point victory.
This was Karnataka’s fifth win this season.
Earlier, resuming on 313 for nine in their first innings, Karnataka folded for 345 in reply to Maharashtra’s modest first essay total of 163, thereby taking a huge lead.
