Century efforts from Sarfaraz Khan and Armaan Jaffer, two young batsmen, put Mumbai on the verge of beating Odisha in their last Ranji Trophy Elite Group D league match to qualify for the knockouts on Day Three in Ahmedabad on Saturday.  

Mumbai piled up a massive 532-9 declared before Odisha were struggling on 84-5 at stumps, trailing by 164 runs. The highlight of the day was Mumbai’s No.3 batsman Armaan’s 125 (15x4, 2x6) and his 277-run fourth wicket partnership with Sarfaraz, who smashed 165 (15x4, 2x6).
