Delhi have taken a strong foot forward for an outright win as the lower middle-order pair Kunwar Bidhuri and Kshitiz Sharma piled more misery on Rajasthan bowlers on Day 2 of Ranji Trophy Elite Group A & B game at the Arun Jaitley Stadium.

While Kunwar took the more aggressive stance and scored 135-ball 111, Kshitiz held on to his nerves at the other end with a patient 212-ball 103 to put 623 runs on board. In reply to the huge total, Rajasthan lost four of its top-order batsman for 80 runs while stuttering to reach 115/4 at stumps.
