Sangram Singh piles on the runs Staff Reporter - 21 November 2001
Teetering at 25/2 overnight, Himachal Pradesh found batting form, primarily in the guise of Sangram Singh, who hit a mammoth 190 against Delhi in their Ranji Trophy league match at Bilaspur on Day Three. Singh and skipper Varinder Sharma, realising the predicament that their side was in, decided that attack was the best form of defence. Both, accordingly, went for their shots. After a 111-run partnership, the captain departed, having made 58. Sangram Singh, however, found another able supporter in Rajiv Nayyar, who made a tenacious unbeaten 50, giving the in-form batsman as much of the strike as possible. The duo put on 200 runs before Sangram was out for 190 made off 297 balls. At stumps, Himachal Pradesh were 327/4, with Nayyar and Shakti Singh (7*) at the crease. © CricInfo
