On a crazy first day's play of the Railways-SaurashtraRanji Match at the Karnail Singh Stadium in Delhi, as many as 18 wickets fell down! Batting first after winning the toss, Saurashtra were bowled out to a low score of 175 in 66.2 overs with left arm spinner AshishYadav picking up four wickets. None of the Saurashtra batsmen came up with a fifty and the highest score was just 39 which came from Wicket Keeper opener Sheldon Jackson.
Saurashtra despite just putting up 175 on the board find themselves in a great position by stumps after having hosts Railways at a sorry 71 for 8 in just 19.5 overs! RavindraJadeja with his left arm spin destroyed the batting line-up of Railways taking 6 for 22 in just 8.5 overs.
