Young gun Khan’s patient 136 and quickfire 95 by Shreyas help hosts pile up 418 in second innings to consolidate position; Vidarbha 10-0 at the end of Day 3, chasing 538

Vidarbha skipper Akshay Wadkar had to employ eight bowlers to dismiss Ajinkya Rahane’s Mumbai on Day Three of their Ranji Trophy final at the Wankhede Stadium on Tuesday. If this doesn’t indicate Vidarbha’s degree of difficulty, despondency and desperation, nothing else will.
The hosts continued their supremacy by amassing 418 in the second innings to set the visitors a near-impossible 538 -run victory target. They were 10 without loss at stumps.
