The 41-time champions, Mumbai thoroughly dominated from the first ball of the game, which ended in a draw, at the Just Cricket Academy ground. Mumbai will face Madhya Pradesh in the Final at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium starting June 22. Madhya Pradesh beat Bengal by 174 runs to book their place in the semifinals.

The first session of Day 5 was abandoned due to a wet outfield. But even then Mumbai did not want to declare. Resuming the day at 449/4 with Sams Mulani and Sarfaraz Khan on crease, Mumbai added another 80 runs. Both Sarfaraz and Mulani slammed half-centuries to remain unbeaten as the two teams decided to shake hands and end the dull affair at Just Cricket Academy grounds in Bengaluru.

Resuming Day 4 at 133/1 with a 346-run lead, Armaan Jaffer and Yashavi Jaiswal smashed centuries, taking Mumbai clear. This was Jaiswal’s third century as the two commanded with a 286-run partnership. Yashasvi Jaiswal smashed 181 while Jaffer smashed 127.

The Amol Mazumdar-coached side, in their second essay, was poised at 449 for four when stumps were drawn and had an overall lead of staggering 662 runs.

Jaiswal (181), who has hit his maiden hundred in the quarter-final, slammed back-to-back centuries in the current one, as he and Jaffer (127), bulldozed a list-less Uttar Pradesh attack.

And it was sheer dominance by their young batting duo of Jaiswal and Jaffer, who would surely have made his uncle Wasim proud, by his stellar performance.

The two young Mumbai batters, who started the day when they were in their 30s, pummelled the UP attack into submission with a variety of strokes on display in their 286-run stand for the second wicket.

It was raining boundaries at the Just Cricket Academy as Jaiswal hammered 23 fours and one maximum in his 372-ball innings, while Jaffer smashed 15 fours and two sixes in his 259-ball knock.

Uttar Pradesh had to wait long for getting the first wicket of the day and pacer Shivam Mavi (1/36) dismissed Jaffer in the 107th over of the innings, to break the mammoth stand.

But that did not deter Jaiswal, who kept playing shots at will and spared no bowler. Jaiswal missed a richly deserved double-hundred as he was caught by Aryan Juval off Price Yadav (2/69).

UP did get two wickets in quick succession, that of Suved Parkar (22) and Jaiswal, but till then the damage was done.

The wide gulf between the two sides was on display. UP used as many as nine bowlers, but managed to get only three wickets in the day.

Left-arm spinner Saurabh Kumar (1/105) had the most expensive figures as he was taken to task by Jaffer and Jaiswal.

At stumps, Sarfaraz Khan (23 not out) and Shams Mulani (10 not out) were holding fort.
The only interest left on the fifth and final day is to see if Mumbai win outright or go through on the basis of a first-innings lead.
