Ranji Trophy: Mumbai Dominates Himachal Pradesh on Day 2
Teary-eyed Musheer Khan, Sarfaraz’s younger brother, dedicates Ranji Trophy century to late uncle · indianexpress.com

In a cricket match, the Mumbai team batted first and scored a lot of runs, reaching 446.

This was a big score, helped by a player named Siddhesh Lad who scored 127 runs.

When it was the other team's turn to bat, Himachal Pradesh, they didn't do very well.

They lost many players quickly and were only able to score 94 runs, with many players still out.

The Mumbai bowlers did a great job, especially Himanshu Singh, who took 3 players out.

Another bowler, Tushar Deshpande, also took 2 players out.

Because Himachal Pradesh is so far behind, they might have to bat again right away.

The Mumbai team is in a very strong position to win this match.
