Rasool claims ninth fifer, Ishant steady on return

Off-spinner Parveez Rasool picked up his ninth five-wicket haul in first-class cricket as India Green dismissed the Blue team for a paltry 177 before finishing the day at 100 for 3 in the final round robin league encounter of the Duleep Trophy. Senior India speedster Ishant Sharma, playing a first-class match after six months, was steady in return, taking 1 for 15 in seven overs. Earlier, courtesy Rasool’s 5/70 in 17 overs and left-arm medium pacer Aniket Chaudhary’s, the Blues could only bat for 52 overs after winning the toss. When Green team batted, openers Nitin Saini and Kaushik Gandhi added 53 for the opening stand but then both were dismissed along with Prashant Chopra.
