Ranji Trophy: Prithvi Shaw century helps Mumbai recover against TN

Prithwi Shaw (123) and Shreyas Iyer (57) steadied the ship with a 98-run partnership after Herwadkar was dismissed for a duck. Suryakumar Yadav and Aditya Tare chipped in with useful contributions of 39 and 53 respectively. The returning Vijay Shankar topped the bowling charts for Tamil Nadu, bagging three wickets. 

R Ashwin and Yo Mahesh picked up two wickets each. Rahil Shah, who bowled in tandem with the Indian off-spinner, went wicket less in his quota of 25 overs. The visitor will look to bundle out its opponent on Wednesday after picking up two quick wickets at the end of Tuesday’s play.
