Mumbai vs Tamil Nadu, Day 3: Mumbai in control of Ranji Trophy semi-final

Day 3 will be crucial as Tamil Nadu will need to fightback with a strong response vs Mumbai

Mumbai vs Tamil Nadu, Day 3 LIVE Score (MUM vs TN): The Mumbai Cricket team is in complete control vs Tamil Nadu in the ongoing Ranji Trophy semi-final clash at the BKC ground.

Shardul Thakur heroics lead way:

Mumbai all-rounder Shardul Thakur stole the show with a brilliant knock of 109 runs (104 balls), his maiden first-class century.

Coming in at number 9 with his team in a precarious position (106/7), Thakur launched a counter-attacking counter-attack, rescuing Mumbai and putting them in a strong position.

Solid lower-order batting buoys Mumbai:

Mumbai’s lower order has been a consistent source of strength throughout the season, and this trend continued in the semi-final. After losing their top order cheaply, contributions from Hardik Tamore (52) and Tanush Kotian (74*) ensured a vital partnership that extended the lead significantly.

Left-arm spinner Sai Kishore was the lone bright spark for Tamil Nadu with a six-wicket haul. However, his partner in spin, Ajith Ram, couldn’t find his rhythm, leaving the bowling attack somewhat toothless.
