Maharashtra Crushes Mumbai's Unbeaten Streak
3 Jan
Summary
- Arshin Kulkarni scored his second List-A century with 114 runs.
- Maharashtra posted a massive total of 366 for four.
- Mumbai's batting collapsed, losing two wickets for just four runs.
Maharashtra halted Mumbai's unbeaten run in the Vijay Hazare Trophy with a commanding 153-run victory, largely thanks to Arshin Kulkarni's exceptional second List-A century. Kulkarni's 114, combined with a strong opening partnership and contributions from captain Ruturaj Gaikwad, propelled Maharashtra to a massive total of 366 for four.
Mumbai's chase began disastrously, with the team losing two wickets for a mere four runs. Despite efforts from Angkrish Raghuvanshi, who scored 92, and Siddhesh Lad, the middle order crumbled under the pressure of the steep target.
The absence of key players like Sarfaraz Khan due to injury and captain Shardul Thakur's limited bowling due to injury further hampered Mumbai's efforts. Sloppy fielding, including dropped catches, also played a role in their defeat.
