Chandigarh, December 4

Rahul Kumar scored a timely unbeaten 61 to help Punjab log a six-wicket win over Chandigarh during the last day play of the Cooch Behar Trophy at Dhruv Pandove Stadium, Patiala.

Chandigarh lads scored 299 in their first innings, followed by a dismal show in the second innings where the side bundled out at 135. The host team posted 281 in their first innings and scored 154/4 in the second to win the match.

Resuming from their overnight total of 16 for no loss, openers Vihaan and Manveer Singh failed to raise a big partnership. Chandigarh’s Raghav Verma accounted for Vihaan (25) and Manveer (15), while defending the 153-run total. Kumar came up with an unbeaten 61 and along with Krish Bhagat (18) raised a 77-run unbeaten partnership to bring an easy win for the host team.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
