Ranji Trophy 2022: Record-breaking Bengal take control against Jharkhand
Jharkhand piled up 880 runs against Nagaland at the Eden Gardens, Bengal paid them back in the same coin putting up a huge 773 for seven declared in the Ranji Trophy quarter-final match at the Just Cricket Academy ground in Bengaluru on Wednesday. The Abhimanyu Easwaran-led side then took firm control of the match reducing Jharkhand to 139 for five, still trailing Bengal by 634 runs, at stumps on Day 3. It was a huge relief for the Bengal team management to see the side, which struggled to get big scores this season, create a first-class record of all nine batters scoring half-centuries in an innings as the Jharkhand bowlers were left looking for answers.
