Powar century livens up final day Staff Reporter - 23 December 2001
The four day Goa-Hyderabad Ranji encounter at the Panjim Gymkhana Grounds ended in a draw on Friday. Hyderabad secured five points by virtue of the 94-run first innings lead that they had secured on Thursday. Goa, meanwhile, had to be content with three. Earlier, Goa, who resumed their second innings at 28 for no loss, decided to bat out the remainder of the day. Their openers - captain Vivekanand Kolambkar and Sudin Kamat - put on 90 before Kolamabkar was dismissed for 36. Kamat went on to make 47. Of the remaining batsmen, No. 4 Kiran Powar stood out, making an unbeaten 101 off just 142 balls before stumps were drawn. Powar went after the bowling on completing his fifty, scoring his last 51 runs off just 48 with five fours and two sixes. Goa ended the match with their second innings score reading 263 for six.
