New Delhi, Jan 1: Virender Sehwag and Gautam Gambhir were dismissed cheaply in yet another pathetic batting show by Delhi, who are now staring at a big defeat against table toppers Karnataka in their final Tanji Trophy group league match, here today.
Having conceded a first innings lead of 87 runs after Karnataka scored 289 in their first innings, Delhi were tottering at 132 for six at stumps on day three with a lead of 45 runs and four wickets in hand.
Sehwag’s (11) woeful first-class season might have ended today as he was trapped by a HS Sharath delivery that hit him below knee-roll having cut back a little. Mithun Manhas (32) hit some flowing boundaries and just as he was getting into the groove, Shreyas Gopal’s acrobatic catch off his own bowling saw him head back to pavilion.(PTI)
