With the frontline pacers taking a break, those on fringes hogged the limelight

8226; Baroda, depleted by the absence of Irfan Pathan and Zaheer Khan, saw Rakesh Patel returing the figures of 4/82 as Assam were dimissed for 273

8226; Forgotten Railways pacer Harvinder Singh showed he still had the fire. Six for 75 8212; including Kambli bowled for 1 8212; stopped defending champs Mumbai in their tracks

8226; Dodda Ganesh too hasn8217;t lost it yet. The usual Ranji-performer took 4/80 against Bengal

8226; Punjab pacer Gagandeep Singh also floated to the fringe of the national team with figures of 5/68 at Mohali

8226; The couple of days spent in the dressing room at Mumbai Test hasn8217;t quite helped Bengal pacer SS Paul. Figures of 17-3-50-0 mean Pathan or Balaji will face fewer problems returning to the Test team
