Ranji Trophy 2018-19, Elite Group C roundup: Shivam Mavi makes a splash, Chetan Bist leads Rajasthan

Honours were pretty much even in Ranchi, where hosts Jharkhand ended the day on 266/6 against Assam. Jharkhand’s top three each made starts but only Utkarsh Singh, with 63 not out, has the option of pressing on for a hundred. Kumar Deobrat (43) and Mohammad Nazim (72) put on 108 for the opening wicket before Assam’s bowlers rocked the middle order.

Brief scores: Jharkhand 266/6 (Nazim 72, Utkarsh 63*) vs Assam
