India Green 116 for 7 (Raina 35, Kuldeep 3-26) trail India Red 161 (Mukund 77,
Sandeep 4-62, Ojha 3-19) by 45 runsScorecard and ball-by-ball detailsIndia Red
and India Green approached the countrys maiden first-class game with the pink
ball with as much excitement as fear of the unknown - the fall of 17 wickets in
the day might point to the latter - before coming out with the feeling that it
wasnt an entirely alien beast.
Devonta Freeman Super Bowl Jersey . It was by
no means a jolt-free afternoon and night, though. India Red, having elected to
bat, combusted to 161, before India Green hobbled their way to 116 for 7 when
they werent busy fighting malfunctioning floodlights.The build-up to the game
resembled a carnival rolling into town. Despite its usual thrills of stilted
clowns and puppet shows, it is often the Ferris wheel that becomes the
showstopper. When a sizeable crowd of flag-waving, chirpy fans made their way to
the grass banks of the Shahid Vijay Singh Pathik Sports Complex, Indias latest
domestic season had found its Ferris wheel, this one sheathed in pink. The first
session was instructive in tempering a few popular notions about the pink ball,
like its exaggerated early swing, for instance. Exhibit A was provided by India
Greens Ashok Dinda and Sandeep Sharma, who got the new ball to seam a lot more
than swing. Despite a grass coverage of 4mm on the pitch, there wasnt any
excessive lateral movement. That India Red slumped to 67 for 6 at the end of the
first session was more a consequence of some poor shot-making, and good
field-placements from India Green captain Suresh Raina, than any demons that lay
hidden inside the pink ball.Dinda said during the tea break the ball stopped
swinging and seaming once it had become relatively older, and thereby the
bowlers were looking to target the stumps. He said there was no turn on offer,
but there was enough evidence to the contrary with spinners accounting for six
wickets. There was adequate assistance for both fingerspin and wristspin, with
Pragyan Ojha and Jalaj Saxena of India Red, and Kuldeep and Akshay Wakhare of
India Green getting fairly appreciable turn.On a day when wickets fell in a
heap, Abhinav Mukund was the most successful batsman on either side. Mukunds 77
was instrumental firstly in India Red reaching triple figures, and then his
50-run partnership for the eighth wicket with Anureet Singh, who swished his way
to 32 off 21, helped the team cross 150.Mukund admitted to having trouble with
sighting the ball at practice on Monday, but said there were no such issues
during the match. I was timing the ball well personally. I couldnt sight it
quite well in the nets yesterday, but today was better and it was a good
experience, he said after the first days play.To be honest, I didnt have much of
a problem [sighting] today. I thought I was timing the ball and getting into
good positions. The ball was holding on to the wicket sometimes, sometimes [it
was] skidding on. Its a new experience. We dont play with the Kookaburra in
domestic cricket; its a new experience for a lot of cricketers.India Green had
begun in similarly shaky fashion, with Nathu Singh accounting for all the three
wickets that fell inside the first eight overs. Nathu, like Sandeep earlier in
the evening, profited when he held the seam upright. Robin Uthappa was dismissed
by a jaffa that cut back sharply to shave the top of off stump in the seventh
ball of the innings, while Jalaj Saxena slashed one that didnt bounce as much to
be caught behind. Nathus swerving in-ducker in his next over caught Rajat
Paliwal on the shuffle to leave India Green at 31 for 3. Raina and Parthiv Patel
then restored calm with a 41-run stand. But after Kuldeep ran through the middle
order, Saurabh Tiwary, the last recognised batsman, remained the key to India
Green securing the first-innings advantage.
