Services Complete Second Highest Chase vs Odisha
The New Indian Express Kottayam
|February 03, 2025
RIDING on openers Shubham Rohilla's 209 not out and Suraj Vashisht's unbeaten 154, Services achieved the second highest successful run-chase in Ranji Trophy history as they overhauled a 376-run target against Odisha without losing a wicket in their Group A match in Cuttack on Sunday.
Meanwhile, Jammu and Kashmir, who recently shocked 42-time champions Mumbai by five wickets in their backyard, progressed to the quarterfinals from the group with a memorable 182-run win over Baroda in Vadodara. Services' effort is second only to Railways' 378-run chase against Tripura in Agartala last year. Vashisht and Rohilla's unbroken 376-run partnership is also the second highest stand in a successful fourth-innings run-chase in First-Class cricket history.
