2018-19 Vijay Hazare Trophy: Prithvi Shaw, Shreyas Iyer dazzle; TN register thrilling win

Mumbai batsman Prithvi Shaw scored yet another century in the ongoing Vijay Hazare Trophy and helped Mumbai cruise to a 173-win over Railways at the M Chinnaswamy stadium in Bengaluru.

After choosing to bat first, Prithvi gave Mumbai a flying start in spite of losing skipper Ajinkya Rahane for 3. Prithvi took the attack to the opposition and found an able partner in Shreyas Iyer. The duo put on 161 runs for the second wicket in just 20 overs and set the platform for Mumbai put on a massive score in the innings.

Prithvi scored his second century in three matches and was dismissed for 129 off 81 balls. Shreyas, on the other hand, continued his massacre and found a good support in Suryakumar Yadav, who scored 67. Shreyas kept piling on the runs and was dismissed for a 118-ball 144 with an help of eight fours and 10 sixes. By then, Mumbai were 356/4 after the 45th over and some late blitz from Siddesh Lad propelled Mumbai to 400/5 in 50 overs.

Chasing 401 runs to win, Railways were never in the race as they were bundled out for 227 in just less than 43 overs. In Chennai, Tamil Nadu beat Rajasthan by one run in a thriller. R Sai Kishore's five-wicket haul and CV Varun's three wickets helped TN restrict Rajasthan for just 133. Chasing 134, TN kept losing wickets at regular intervals and when things were doomed for the hosts, B Anirudh's 40 and M Mohammed's unbeaten 22 helped them sneak home by one wicket.

Among the Indian discards, Yuvraj Singh failed to make an impact as he managed to score just six in Punjab's 94-run loss to Maharashtra while Manoj Tiwary scored a well-made 50 in Bengal's narrow win over Tripura.
