Gujarat bat themselves into a strong position Staff Reporter - 24 January 2002
Gujarat batted themselves into a strong position at the end of the opening day of their match against Andhra at the Sardar Patel Stadium, Motera, Ahmedabad. After winning the toss, H Joshipura and ND Modi got the home team off to the best possible start. The duo piled on 224 runs for the first wicket before Modi was dismissed just eight short of what would have been a deserved century. Joshipura, who followed almost immediately, though had the satisfaction of notching 113 well-made and patient runs against his name. When stumps were drawn, NK Patel and skipper Mukund Parmar were batting on 11 and 7 respectively. © CricInfo
