Shams Mulani: Consistent Performer Knocking on the Door of Indian Team

By October 5, 2024 0

Shams Mulani, the Mumbai all-rounder, has been a consistent performer on the domestic circuit for the past three seasons. Despite missing out on the first round of the Duleep Trophy, Mulani made an immediate impact when he got his opportunity. In his first match for India A, he top-scored with 89 and took four wickets to set up their win over India D. In the next match against India C, he scored a crucial 44 and took three wickets.

Mulani’s performances in the Duleep Trophy have put him in contention for a place in the Indian team. However, the 27-year-old is focused on his performance and helping his team win.

“My target always is to help the team win. Personal milestones will come and go, but the more important thing is the team’s win,” Mulani said. “Personally, I would like to do what I am continuing to do for the past three seasons where I’ve been picking up wickets and scoring runs. I must be ready for whatever opportunity I get. For that, I need to score runs and take wickets-…just keep knocking on the door.”

Mulani’s consistent performances have not gone unnoticed. He was included in the India A squad for the upcoming tour of Bangladesh. This is a great opportunity for Mulani to showcase his skills and push for a place in the Indian team.

Prasidh Krishna’s Fiery Spell Wins Duleep Trophy for India-A

By September 24, 2024 0

Prasidh Krishna’s fiery spell propelled India-A to victory in the Duleep Trophy final, ending the spirited resistance of India-C. The seamer’s impressive performance, in only his second game after a lengthy injury layoff, earned him praise from India-A coach Sunil Joshi.

“I am very glad that he has come back into form and is back in the reckoning,” Joshi said. “He was bowling at good speed too, clocking 140’s consistently.”

Joshi also expressed his satisfaction with the sporting track provided for the final. “This was one of the best wickets I have come across in India,” he said. “It was nice that there was something for the bowlers and the batters.”

The crowd’s presence was another positive aspect of the match. “It is important to take the game to smaller cities and towns like this,” Joshi said. “Some of the kids might be inspired to take up cricket after watching all these Test and IPL players.”

Joshi lauded Shashwat Rawat, one of the tournament’s standout performers. The left-hander not only topped the batting average (85.33) but also displayed solid defense and elegant strokeplay. “I had seen his numbers in the Ranji Trophy as I follow domestic players closely,” said Joshi. “He is a compact and elegant player. And I think the selectors led by Ajit Agarkar have done a good job in picking the teams for the Duleep Trophy.”

Regarding the final, Joshi believed his team played the perfect red-ball cricket. “Captain Mayank Agarwal did a good job,” he said. “Our spinners Shams Mulani and Tanush Kotian bowled well, and I thought it was a splendid innings by India-C’s Sai Sudharsan.”

India A Triumphs in Duleep Trophy with Dominant Bowling Performance

India A Triumphs in Duleep Trophy with Dominant Bowling Performance

By September 22, 2024 0

India A emerged victorious in the Duleep Trophy, defeating India C by 132 runs in a thrilling encounter at Anantapur. The triumph was orchestrated by the exceptional bowling performances of Tanush Kotian and Prasidh Krishna, who combined to claim six wickets.

India A, starting the final round with a three-point deficit, displayed unwavering determination throughout the four-day contest. Their dominance was evident from the outset, as they set a challenging target of 350 for India C.

The chase proved to be a daunting task for India C, who were bowled out for 217 in 81.5 overs. Krishna’s impressive figures of 3/50 from 13.5 overs included the final wicket of the match. Kotian, on the other hand, played a pivotal role in triggering a collapse in the opposition ranks.

At tea, India C were in a relatively comfortable position at 169 for three, with Sai Sudharsan in fine form. However, Kotian’s crucial strikes, including the dismissals of Ishan Kishan, Abhishek Porel, and Pulkit Narang, turned the tide in India A’s favor.

Earlier in the chase, Ruturaj Gaikwad and Vijaykumar Vyshak had provided some resistance, but their efforts were not enough to prevent India A from gaining the upper hand. Sudharsan’s valiant innings of 111 off 206 balls, which included 12 fours, proved to be a lone bright spot for India C.

The resistance crumbled when Sudharsan was dismissed by Krishna in the 78th over. Aaquib Khan and Shams Mulani also contributed to India A’s victory, dismissing Rajat Patidar and Manav Suthar respectively.

In the final stages of the match, Krishna added to his tally by dismissing Anshul Kamboj and Baba Indrajith for ducks, sealing a significant victory for his team.

Earlier in the day, India A declared their innings at 286 for six, batting for just a few overs. Riyan Parag (73) and Shashwat Rawat (53) scored fifties, while wicketkeeper-batter Kumar Kushagra contributed a vital 42, helping their side extend the overall lead to 349.

India A Extends Lead Over India C in Duleep Trophy Final

By September 21, 2024 0

India A has extended its lead over India C in the final round of the Duleep Trophy fixtures in Anantapur. Resuming the third day with a 63-run advantage, India A’s Riyan Parag and Shashwat Rawat played crucial knocks to bolster their position.

Parag, who had not scored a half-century in the competition prior to this match, struck a fluent 73. Rawat, the 23-year-old Baroda batter, continued his impressive form with a second big score in the match, following his 124 in the first innings. His 53 helped India A extend their lead to 333 at stumps with four wickets remaining.

The pair added 105 for the fourth wicket, with the partnership broken when left-arm spinner Manav Suthar dismissed Rawat. Kumar Kushagra, the Jharkhand wicketkeeper, remained unbeaten on 40 at the close of play, with Tanush Kotian providing support.

India C’s hopes of chasing down India A’s first-innings total of 297 were dashed by Avesh Khan, who claimed two of the three wickets to fall. India C managed to add just 18 runs to their overnight total, with left-arm spinner Shams Mulani picking up the other wicket.

India A, currently placed third in the four-team competition, need an outright victory to have a chance of winning the Duleep Trophy.

India C’s batting lineup faltered against India A’s bowling attack on day two of their four-day match in Anantapur. Despite a valiant effort from Abishek Porel, India C ended the day trailing by 81 runs.

Ruturaj Gaikwad, Sai Sudharsan, Rajat Patidar, and Ishan Kishan all failed to make significant contributions, leaving India C in a precarious position. However, Porel, who has been in impressive form this season, played a crucial role in reviving the innings. He scored a gritty 82 off 113 deliveries, providing much-needed stability to the batting order.

Pulkit Narang, who is seeking to establish himself as a first-class cricketer, will be crucial for India C’s hopes of taking the lead on Saturday. He is currently on 99 first-class wickets and will be eager to reach the milestone.

Earlier, India A’s lower order provided a late boost to their first-innings total. Avesh Khan struck an unbeaten 51, while Prasidh Krishna contributed 34. Shashwat Rawat’s century on the opening day had laid the foundation for India A’s score of 297.

Vijaykumar Vyshak, who has caught the attention of selectors, impressed with the ball for India C. He claimed four wickets for 51 runs, including two of the three remaining wickets on day two. Anshul Kamboj, who had taken eight wickets in the previous game, finished with 3 for 49.

Shashwat Rawat’s Unconquered Century Rescues India A from Collapse in Duleep Trophy

India A’s batting lineup faced a severe test on the opening day of their Duleep Trophy encounter against India C in Anantapur. However, a remarkable century from Shashwat Rawat salvaged the innings, guiding his team to a respectable total of 224 for seven.

Rawat, a left-handed batter from Baroda, displayed exceptional resilience and skill, remaining unbeaten on 122 off 235 deliveries. His innings was adorned with 15 boundaries, showcasing his ability to play a variety of shots with precision.

India A’s batting woes began early, with the top order crumbling to 36 for five. Pratham Singh, Mayank Agarwal, Tilak Varma, and Riyan Parag all failed to reach double figures. However, Rawat found an able ally in Shams Mulani, who contributed a valuable 44 off 76 balls.

The duo forged a crucial 87-run partnership, providing much-needed stability to the innings. Mulani, who had been the match-winner in the previous game with the ball, proved his all-round abilities with a gritty knock.

India C’s bowlers, led by Anshul Kamboj, who had claimed eight wickets in an innings last week, put up a strong performance. Kamboj picked up three wickets for 40 runs, while Vijaykumar Vyshak chipped in with two for 33.

Despite Rawat’s heroics, India C remain in a strong position, sitting atop the Duleep Trophy standings with nine points. They will aim to dismiss India A quickly on day two and secure a crucial victory.

Shams Mulani's All-Round Brilliance Powers India A to Duleep Trophy Victory

Shams Mulani’s All-Round Brilliance Powers India A to Duleep Trophy Victory

By September 15, 2024 0

Mumbai all-rounder Shams Mulani has had a first-class match of his life in the Duleep Trophy 2024 second round. After scoring a match-saving 89 in the first innings for India A against India D, Mulani now starred with the ball and with his quick thinking in the field.

Not only did he pick up four wickets in the game, the 27-year-old was able to inflict a rare type of run out. Yash Dubey, opening the batting for India D, was the victim of a stroke of misfortune and a brilliant piece of game alertness by Mulani.

Striker Ricky Bhui had played a ball bowled by Mulani down the ground, but the ball happened to deflect off non-striker Dubey’s bat. However, Dubey, thinking that the ball had slipped through, attempted to sneak a quick single.

However, an alert Mulani noticed that the ball hadn’t gone too far, and grabbed it and dislodged the stumps at the non-striker’s end. Dubey was late to react, and had to walk back to the pavilion. He was dismissed on a score of 37 off 94 balls.

India A registered a thumping 186-run victory, despite struggling at 94/5 in their first innings. Mulani’s resilient 89 had helped India A to go from there to a total of 290, after which they took a 107-run lead as India D were bowled out for just 183.

Notably, India D captain Shreyas Iyer made a duck, after walking out to bat wearing sunglasses.

In the second innings, centuries by Pratham Singh and Tilak Verma helped India A set a mammoth target of 487. India D were bowled out for 301, with Mulani dismantling the middle order by taking the wickets of Devdutt Padikkal, Shreyas Iyer and Sanju Samson, along with his moment of genius by running out Dubey.

Mulani’s all-round performance has been a key factor in India A’s victory in the Duleep Trophy 2024 second round. His ability to contribute with both bat and ball has made him a valuable asset to the team.

India A emerged victorious in their Duleep Trophy clash against India D, securing a commanding 186-run win. After suffering a setback in their opening match, India A bounced back with a dominant performance, setting a formidable target of 488 for their opponents.

India D’s pursuit of a draw began promisingly, with opener Abhimanyu Easwaran and Yash Dubey forging a solid partnership. However, the dismissal of Dubey and Devdutt Padikkal in quick succession halted their momentum.

Mulani, who had earlier contributed a crucial 89 in India A’s first innings, claimed four wickets in the match, including the prized scalp of Iyer. Kotian, the Mumbai all-rounder, wreaked havoc in the lower order, picking up a four-wicket haul to seal the victory in the final session.

India A’s batting prowess was on full display in their first innings, with Pratham Singh and Tilak Varma amassing centuries. Their contributions laid the foundation for a commanding total of 380 for 3, which ultimately proved insurmountable for India D.

Samson’s aggressive approach continued as he hit another boundary and a maximum in the 57th over of Kotian. However, his innings was cut short in the 61st over when Kotian dismissed him for 40.
