Catch all the live updates and real-time scores of Round 3 of Vijay Hazare Trophy (VHT). Rishabh Pant continues to lead. No Rohit Sharma or Virat Kohli this time.

Vijay Hazare Trophy LIVE: No fans, there is no Rohit Sharma or Virat Kohli in this third round of the Vijay Hazare Trophy (VHT) fixtures. The two modern-day legends made themselves available for just the first two games and are unlikely to take further part in the premier domestic 50-over tournament. However, other high-profile players are here. Rishabh Pant continues to lead Delhi, while Ruturaj Gaikwad and Prithvi Shaw are part of Maharashtra. Mohammed Shami will turn up for Bengal and so will Rinku Singh and Dhruv Jurel for Uttar Pradesh. Meanwhile, Abhishek Sharma continues to lead Punjab.

Vijay Hazare Trophy matches available for live streaming on Dec 29:

  • Group A – Kerala vs Madhya Pradesh – 9:00 AM IST
  • Group B – Bengal vs Chandigarh – 9:00 AM IST

Delight for Uttarakhand as they have sent back both dangerous openers Abhishek Sharma (30 off 26) and Prahbsimran Singh (28 off 23). Jagamohan Nagarkoti took Prabhsimran before Abhishek got out in the last over of the powerplay. 
Now, Naman Dhir has been also dismissed as Punjab find themselves in trouble. Anmolpreet Singh and Salil Arora at the crease now. 

Punjab: 68/3 after 12 overs.

Firepower – that's the word for Abhishek Sharma, who once again gives a rapid start to his side. Within 5 overs against Uttarakhand, Punjab have scored 46 without loss, with skipper Abhishek hammering down 22 runs off 13. That includes 5 boundaries already! Prabhsimran Singh is in the mood as well.

Mumbai captain Shardul Thakur starts the fixture against Chhattisgarh with aplomb. Taking the new ball, Shardul has struck twice in the first over, sending back Tiwary and Mayank Verma. If that wasn't enough, he has come back to muster another wicket. In his second over, he dismissed AShutosh Singh and Chhattisgarh are in disarray. 

Chhattisgarh: 9/3 after 2.4 overs
