Saurashtra vs Gujarat Live Score, Ranji Trophy quarterfinal Day 2 (Saurashtra Cricket Team vs Gujarat Cricket Team): Hello and welcome to the live blog of the second day’s play of the ongoing Ranji Trophy 2024-25 quarterfinal match between Saurashtra and Gujarat, which is taking place at Niranjan Shah Stadium in Rajkot. The match is being live televised Sports 18 Network and streaming on the Jio Cinema app and website in India.
Skipper Chintan Gaja bowled a probing line to grab four wickets as Gujarat restricted Saurashtra to a lowly 216 to gain upper-hand on the opening day of the match. At stumps, Gujarat were 21 for no loss with both openers — veteran Priyank Panchal (11 batting) and young turk Arya Desai (10 batting) — safely negotiating the five over towards the fag end of the day.
Gaja, who bowls at a friendly pace between 118 to 122 kmph, consistently pitched it up to claim 4 for 48 in 21 overs as all Saurashtra batters, save opener Chirag Jani (69 off 148 balls), struggled against the visiting team, whose decision to bowl first was vindicated.
