All-rounder Parvez Rasool slammed a brilliant 101-ball 97 but failed to save Jammu and Kashmir from being bowled out for just 178 by Himachal Pradesh in their Group C Ranji Trophy match today.
Rasool, who was included in the India ODI squad which toured Zimbabwe in July after a string of fine performances in the domestic circuit, struck 17 fours in his blistering knock and was unlucky to have missed out on a century.
Opener Adil Rishi was the only other J&K batsman who contributed substantially with a 47. All the remaining batsmen could not touch double-digit scores.
For Himachal, pacers Rishi Dhawan and Vikramjeet Malik shared seven wickets between them with four and three scalps respectively as the home side placed themselves in a commanding position.
In reply, Himachal were 92 for one at the end of the day, trailing by 86 runs with nine first innings wickets in hand.
Opener Sangram Singh and Paras Dogra were on 24 and 29 respectively.
Brief Scores:
Jammu & Kashmir 178 (Parveez Rasool 97; Rishi Dhawan 4 for 70) lead Himachal Pradesh 92 for 1 (Prashant Chopra 35; Ram Dayal 1 for 26) by 86 runs.
