Ranji Trophy: Ronit More's takes five, Karnataka have slight advantage

Ronit claimed his fourth five-for of the season.

Bengaluru: Karnataka pacer Ronit More’s five-wicket haul on Friday put the Ranji Trophy semifinal against Saurashtra in the balance. At stumps on day two, the visitors were 227 for seven, still trailing by 48 runs.

Saurashtra had an edge over Karnataka when they were cruising at 177 for 3, but Cheteshwar Pujara’s dismissal, five short of a half-century, triggered a collapse.

Ronit claimed his fourth five-for of the season.

Brief scores: Karnataka 275 in 100.3 overs (S. Gopal 87, S Sharath 83*; J Unadkat 4/56) vs Saurashtra 227/7 in 66.3 overs (Snell Patel 85, Ronit More 5/54).
