Ahmedabad, January 15

Gujarat scripted a stunning turnaround by bundling out Karnataka for a mere 103 on the final day to secure a six-run win in their Ranji Trophy Group C clash. Set a 110-run target, Karnataka were cruising at 50/0 before the Gujarat bowlers, headlined by left-arm spinner Siddharth Desai’s 7/42, orchestrated a sensational collapse.

In Mullanpur, seamer Himanshu Sangwan’s 4/58 helped Railways secure the first innings lead over Punjab and garner three points after their drawn match.

Starting the day at 93/6, Punjab folded for 178. Abhinav Sharma was their top-scorer with 73 off 92 balls. Forced to bat again, Punjab reached 53/1 at stumps.

Brief scores: Gujarat: 264 & 219 vs Karnataka: 374 & 103 (Desai 7/42); Railways: 345 vs Punjab: 178 (Abhinav 73; Sangwan 4/58) & 53/1.

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).
