Vijay Hazare Trophy 2014-15: Jharkhand Review

Saurabh Tiwary

Here is how Jharkhand's run in the Vijay Hazare Trophy unfolded:

Game 1: vs Tripura - Won by 8 Wickets
Game 2: vs Bengal - Lost by 163 Runs
Game 3: vs  Assam - Lost by 7 Wickets
Game 4: vs  Odisha - Won by 45 Runs

So won 2 and lost 2 and then knocked out on basis of inferior net run rate. The huge defeat against Bengal really hurt them in the final calculations. 

Highlights for Jharkhand

• Saurabh Tiwary's back to the wall century against Assam. He is becoming an expert in playing these kind of knocks.
• New import Rituraj Singh's 5 wicket haul against Tripura
• Top scorers

Virat Singh - 170 @56.67
Saurabh Tiwary - 154 @77
Kumar Deobrat - 128 @42.67

Top wicket-takers

Rahul Shukla - 7 @21.57
Jaskaran Singh - 7 @29.57
Rituraj Singh - 6 @29.17

The disappointing run continues. But let's hope the team performs better in the Ranji Trophy with the first game against Zonal mates Assam starting on December 14th.
