MUMBAI, JAN 20: A last-wicket stand between Uday Karkera (75 not out: 106b, 120m, 8×4, 2×6) and Imran Baig (29: 68b, 4×4) resurrected Rizvi College’s hopes in the Junior Inter-Collegiate summit clash. The duo raised 120 runs to turn the tables on RA Podar on the penultimate day of the four-day encounter at Elf Vengsarkar on Thursday.

Rizvi not only overhauled Podar’s first innings score of 328 but also eked out a 32-run lead.

Resuming at overnight 229 for six, in reply to RA Podar’s 328, Rizvi’s fate appeared sealed when they lost three wickets for 21 runs. Karkera and Baig put their heads together and thwarted the opposition to clinch the lead, which was a distant 88 runs away when they began their association.Podar had made 132-4 in the second essay when stumps were drawn.

Brief Scores: RA Podar 328 & 132-4 in 45 overs (Rubesh Kumar 47; Majid Ansari 2-21) vs Rizvi College 360 in 114.2 overs (Rohit Bhalla 49, Majid Ansari 67, Uday Karkera 75 not out, Imran Baig 29; Burli Prahlad 7-120).
