Yashasvi Jaiswal’s sparkling fifty remained a mere personal landmark as Central Zone advanced to the Duleep Trophy final by virtue of their first innings lead in the drawn match against West Zone here on Sunday. Central Zone will now face South Zone in the final from September 11.
Jaiswal (64) peppered the boundary lines often in his 70-ball innings that helped West reach 216-8 in their second innings, but the 162-run innings lead they conceded earlier sealed their fate. Central, overnight 556-8, were bowled out for 600.
Meanwhile, N Jagadeesan struck an unbeaten 52 to extend South’s dominance as they advanced to the final of the Duleep Trophy after taking a 175-run first-innings lead against North. South reached 95-1 when the game was called off with Jagadeesan, who had struck 197 in the first innings, reaching 52 not out off 69 balls.
