Vijay Bharadwaj scores double in vain
Staff Reporter - 6 December 2001

Brushing aside an unbeaten 207 from Vijay Bharadwaj, Tamil Nadu cantered to a four-wicket victory over Karnataka in their Ranji Trophy league match at Bangalore on Wednesday.

Resuming overnight on 233/3, with Bharadwaj on 125, Karnataka lost wickets are regular intervals, primarily to Tamil Nadu medium-pacer L Balaji (4-120). Bharadwaj forged on unhindered at the other end, almost as if he were playing on a different pitch and against a different attack.

In 273 balls, Bharadwaj made 207, a knock that featured 32 fours and a six. He remained unbeaten as his side was dismissed for 388. Only Sunil Joshi and Dodda Ganesh could offer him any support, and they took fell cheaply.

Set only 136 to win, Tamil Nadu experienced some early scares as tight bowling from Karnataka saw the visitors collapse to 69/4. Heman Badani's unbeaten 34, however, guided his team to victory, and Tamil Nadu picked eight points by virtue of their outright win.
