Skipper Ishan Kishan did not perform as expected, but Kumar Kushagra\u2019s fine unbeaten century helped table-toppers Jharkhand reach 327 for five on the first day of their Ranji Trophy Group A match against Baroda in Nagpur on Saturday.<\/p>\n

Kushagra hit 13 fours and three sixes during his 225-ball knock of 133 runs, while Robin contributed with 10 fours and a six in his entertaining 90-ball 79. The pair added 135 runs for the fifth wicket, putting Jharkhand in a strong position. Anukul Roy (1) was accompanying Kushagra at stumps.<\/p>\n

Earlier in the day, Virat Singh contributed 46 runs, hitting three fours and two sixes, while Ishan managed two fours and a six before being caught by Shivalik Sharma off Mahesh Pithiya\u2019s delivery. For Baroda, Mahesh Pithiya (2\/109) and Rasikh Dar Salam (2\/56) took two wickets each, with Raj Limbani (1\/27) also contributing.<\/p>\n

In Nagpur, Dhruv Shorey showed great discipline, scoring an unbeaten 128 to guide Vidarbha to 234 for five in their first innings against Odisha. Sent in to bat, Shorey became the anchor for Vidarbha\u2019s innings, striking 10 boundaries and a six during his 250-ball stay. Ravikumar Samarth (49) and Yash Rathod (38) also made useful contributions.<\/p>\n

Skipper Akshay Wadkar (0) was batting alongside Shorey at the end of play at the Vidarbha Cricket Association Stadium. For Odisha, Rajesh Mohanty (2\/34), Tapas Das (1\/29), and Jamala Mohapatra (1\/44) shared the wickets.<\/p>\n

In Kanpur, Madhav Kaushik and Aryan Juyal scored centuries, while opener Abhishek Goswami made 55 as Uttar Pradesh showcased a commanding batting display to reach 301 for one at stumps against Nagaland at Green Park. Opting to bat, openers Kaushik and Goswami put on 118 runs before Goswami became the only wicket to fall, dismissed by Imliwati Lemtur (1\/56) in the 38th over. Kaushik then joined forces with Juyal in an unbeaten 183-run partnership, putting the hosts in control. Kaushik struck nine fours, while Juyal hit 15 boundaries.<\/p>\n

In Visakhapatnam, Prithvi Raj claimed four wickets as Andhra bowled out Tamil Nadu for 182 before reaching 20 for one at stumps. Abhishek Reddy (3) and Tripurana Vijay (1) were batting at the close of play, with Andhra 162 runs away from taking a first-innings lead. Tamil Nadu was struggling at 103 for nine before P Vidyuth (40) and Sandeep Warrier (29) added valuable runs, bringing them closer to the 200-mark. Raj (4\/46) received good support from Saurabh Kumar (2\/4), Ashwin Hebbar (1\/7), Satyanarayana Raju (1\/39), and Kavuri Saiteja (1\/50).<\/p>\n
