Bengal take first innings points against Assam
16 November 1999

Calcutta: Bengal got the all important first innings lead on the last day of their East Zone Ranji Trophy league match against Assam which ended in a draw at the Eden Gardens here yesterday. Bengal thus picked up five points while Assam had to be content with three points.

Resuming at the overnight score of 334-9 the last pair of Wrichik Majumdar and Jyotish Das took Bengal past Assam's first innings total of 347. They had added 64 for the last wicket when they were finally separated with the total at 351. Majumdar remained not out on 68.

The match meandered into an academic exercise after that with Assam notching up 228-5 in their second innings thanks to Tariquer Rehman's unbeaten 103. Bengal now plays Tripura from November 22 while Assam takes on Bihar from December 25.
