Ranji Trophy: Rahul's Batting Trouble Continues; Jadeja Scalps Three Wickets After Century

Emanjot Singh Chahal: India star batter KL Rahul was dismissed for another cheap score for Karnataka as he followed his four-run outing in the first innings with one run in the second against Andhra in a Group B clash in Vijayawada. Meanwhile, another India veteran Ravindra Jadeja backed his century with a three-wicket haul for Saurashtra in the clash against Chhattisgarh in Rajkot in Group B, while Punjab have started to lose the plot in their Group B encounter against Assam. Karnataka are in trouble as they ended the third day at 176/4 and have only a 32-run lead. This could have been worse if not for an unbeaten 81 from Karun Nair, while captain Smaran Ravichandran is also unbeaten on 21. Rahul was earlier dismissed for one, while Mayank Agarwal also managed to score just 18. With one day remaining, Karnataka need some magic for an outright win, or else they can at most manage one point if the match ends in a draw, as they had a first-innings deficit. Andhra will take six points if they win (seven if they win by 10 wickets) or they will take three points if the match is drawn, as they have the first-innings lead after bowling Karnataka out for 274 and putting 418 in reply. Meanwhile, Jadeja followed his 102 from the first innings with 3-40 in the first essay with the ball to bowl Chhattisgarh out for 312. Saurashtra are 45/0 in the second innings at stumps on Day 3 and would fancy three points or a win on the final day. Punjab are seemingly losing the plot in their fixture against Assam in their Group B fixture in New Chandigarh. They ended the third day at 287/5 and trail by 86 more runs. Salil Arora and Emanjot Singh Chahal are unbeaten on 25 and 28, respectively. In Group A, Madhya Pradesh are 151/5 against defending champions Jammu and Kashmir in their second innings as Shubham Sharma went back unbeaten on 51 to help the team take their lead to 227. Puducherry were dismissed for 313 in their first innings against Vidarbha on Day 3 of the clash in Nagpur. Ritesh Gudge (95), Mohit Kale (78) and Nikhil Gangta (54) scored strong fifties, but Parth Rekhade and Aman Mokhade took three wickets each. In reply, Vidarbha are 22/1 at stumps and have a lead of 137 runs. Goa are trailing Baroda by 238 runs after being asked to follow-on as they ended Day 3 at 35/1. They were earlier dismissed for 199. Meanwhile, Uttar Pradesh defeated Bihar by an innings and 267 runs. In Group C, Delhi trail Bengal by 88 runs after ending the day at 101/3. Bengal had earlier posted 429 on the back of Abishek Porel's 149 and Sudip Gharami's 133. Kerala are in all sorts after ending the third day at 269/6 against Jharkhand in reply to 587, trailing by 318 runs. Maharashtra lead Services in Delhi by 172 runs after ending the third day at 66/5. They had earlier bowled Services out for 227. Odisha ended Day 3 against Gujarat at 119/4 and have a four-run lead, but Gujarat took a 115-run advantage in the first innings. In Group D, Mumbai completed a stellar innings and a 155-run win over Chandigarh at Wankhede, while Rajasthan led Yamil Nadu by 170 runs after ending Day 3 at 81/4. They had a 91-run lead in the first innings. Railways have a 158-run trail against Uttarakhand as they were 34/0 at stumps. They were bowled out for 278 in the first innings, while Uttarakhand made 470. In Group D, Mumbai completed a stellar innings and a 155-run win over Chandigarh at Wankhede, while Rajasthan led Yamil Nadu by 170 runs after ending Day 3 at 81/4.

Kerala Blasters FC registered a 2-0 win against Inter Kashi in Pune, while FC Goa and Chennaiyin FC played out a 1-1 draw at Fatorda. Newcomers Churchill Brothers also made an impression, securing a 2-1 victory over Mumbai City FC, with Gaurav Bora scoring the clubs first-ever ISL goal. Amid the eventful start to the season, four young players stood out for their contributions across the opening fixtures.

Congress lacks clarity on SIR, alleges Karnataka BJP MP Poojary

Digital Desk | Bengaluru, Oct 13 (IANS) Karnataka BJP MP, Kota Srinivas Poojary on Tuesday alleged that the Congress and Leader of the Opposition in the Lok Sabha (LoP) Rahul Gandhi, lacked clarity on the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls, alleging that they were creating confusion and obstructing constitutionally mandated institutions from carrying out their duties. Speaking to the media at the BJP state headquarters, Jagannath Bhavan, in Malleshwaram, Poojary criticised Congress leaders for questioning the judiciary while also approaching the Supreme Court over the issue. He said the KPCC president had alleged that the Supreme Court and its judges were working like BJP spokespersons, while the Kerala Congress had also criticised Supreme Court judges. On the one hand, they make such statements against the judiciary, and on the other, they talk about approaching the Supreme Court on SIR. This reflects their confused mindset, he alleged. Poojary accused the Congress of speaking about protecting the Constitution while making statements that, according to him, amounted to contempt of court and disparagement of the Supreme Court. He also alleged that the Congress was unnecessarily blaming the Union government and obstructing its work. He said the party had failed in its role as the Opposition and urged it to introspect rather than make statements that could mislead the public. On the Karnataka High Courts decision to quash the enhanced reservation for Scheduled Castes (SCs) and Scheduled Tribes (STs), Poojary urged the state government to challenge the verdict in the Supreme Court and present a strong legal defence. He said the reservation had been increased during the tenure of former Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai based on the report of retired Justice Nagamohan Das, taking into account the population of Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes. The decision was subsequently challenged in the High Court. If proper arguments are presented in the Supreme Court, the enhanced reservation can be protected. The Congress government in the state should work in this direction, he said. Commenting on the appointment of the new Governor of Karnataka, Poojary welcomed the decision and described the appointee as an experienced person who had served in various capacities, including the National Commission for Backward Classes. He said the appointment of a woman as Governor was welcome and expressed hope that her experience would benefit Karnataka and help strengthen democracy in the state. He said drought had caused hardship to both people and livestock and urged ministers and legislators to prioritise relief measures.

Two arrested with 317 kg of ganja worth Rs 3.17 crore in Bengaluru

Digital Desk | Bengaluru, Oct 13 (IANS) The Kumbalgodu police have arrested two persons from Kerala for allegedly transporting 317 kg of ganja from Odisha to Kerala via Bengaluru and seized the contraband along with a car. The seized ganja is valued at Rs 1.78 crore, while its estimated market value is Rs 3.17 crore, police said. Acting on credible information received on October 11 that a large quantity of ganja was being transported from Odisha to Kerala through Bengaluru in a car, the police registered a case under the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances (NDPS) Act. On October 12, a police team intercepted the car near Eidgah Ground at Kambipura when it was proceeding towards Kerala and apprehended the two occupants. During interrogation, the accused allegedly revealed that they had travelled from Kerala to Bengaluru on October 6 and hired a self-drive rental car in R.T. Nagar. They then went to Odisha, where they allegedly purchased ganja at a low price from an unidentified person. According to the police, the accused intended to transport the contraband through Bengaluru to Kumaramanagalam in Kerala and sell it to customers at a higher price. The two men allegedly returned to Bengaluru on October 11 and stayed overnight at a hotel in Bommasandra. The following day, they were intercepted by the Kumbalgodu police while travelling towards Kerala. A search of the vehicle led to the recovery of approximately 317 kg of ganja, which was seized along with the car. Police said efforts were underway to identify those involved in procuring and transporting the contraband, as well as others who assisted in its sale. The investigation is in progress. The operation was carried out under the guidance of Deputy Commissioner of Police, South-West Division, Soumyalatha S.K., and the supervision of Assistant Commissioner of Police, Kengeri Sub-Division, Satyavati K.S. A team led by Kumbalgodu Police Inspector Kumar apprehended the accused and seized the contraband.
