Keeping our umbrellas up, I, Manan Mehta would like to sign off on behalf of my co commentators Deepak Prakash and Akshay Bhide. Also, a shout out to our score/analyst Dushyant Madhukar Kumar. See ya fellas!!!
3:55 PM IST and Local Time: STUMPS: Well then it is fair to say that this match was played between Saurashtra, Madhya Pradesh and the rain! If anyone was the clear winner, it was the weather! It showered for most of the first three days and on the fourth day there was absolutely no play possible with no respite from the rain gods.
Madhya Pradesh though will take three points from this game on the basis of a first innings lead victory.
In the limited action that we saw the home team Saurashtra won the toss and elected to bat first. Apart from Chirag Jani's 82, none of the other batters could convert their starts into something substantial with most batters getting out in the 20s and 30s. From Madhya Pradesh, Aryan Pandey and Kumar Kartikeya were the pick of the bowlers with 4 wickets each to their name. The home side was bundled out for a below par first innings total of 260.
Madhya Pradesh in reply looked much more assured in their approach and two of their batters made it count. Opener Yash Dubey scored a magnificent 159. The Madhya Pradesh middle order failed to rise to the occasion with several single digit scores.
They even found themselves in a spot of bother at 203-7 but that is when Saransh Jain joined Dubey and the pair stitched a much needed 118 run partnership with Jain himself getting to a well-deserved 103*. For Gujarat the pick of the bowlers was captain Jaydev Unadkat who scalped 4 wickets. Sammar Gajjar bagged two. Surprisingly Sir Ravindra Jadeja went wicketless after the only wicket he took was overturned because he had overstepped!
As the score stands at stumps, the visitors are 355-9 and lead by 95. With this lead they secure three points. Hopefully, the next time Saurashtra plays at home in this Ranji Trophy cycle, the rain gods keep away.

Player of the Match: Yash Dubey
3:53 PM: The rain has had the final say on Day 4, as the captains shake hands and the match comes to an end in a draw. Madhya Pradesh get 3 points, courtesy of their first innings lead.
3:22 PM IST and Local Time: The latest update from the Niranjan Shah Stadium in Rajkot is that play is on a halt due to bad light! Despite it not raining, it seems to have gotten really dark! Well, I know as much as you do for the moment, and the wait for some clarity on the situation continues.
3:10 PM IST and Local Time: The rain seems to have stopped but the outfield is wet with all that pouring since morning! The halt though continues! I feel with only one session left in the match and really no gain we may be close to a 'STUMPS' call! STAY TUNED!
2:45 PM: The rain washed out two sessions, and the umpires have called early Tea on Day 4. Hopefully, we’ll get some play in the final session. 🤞
1:57 PM: No update from the venue, and it seems like it's still raining.
12:45 PM: There is no improvement in the weather, as it continues to rain and we continue to wait for positive news.
