Overnight batsmen Onkar Jadhav (193) and Pranav Kela (75) shared a 241-run fifth wicket partnership. "I felt hurt as we came so close to winning but still lost the match. Pranav's dismissal changed the face of the game. I did all that I could, but it wasn't enough," rued Jadhav.</div><div><br /></div><div><b>Sigh of relief</b></div><div>Rizvi skipper Prithvi Shaw heaved a sigh of relief. "We were almost on the verge of losing as we were not being able to break their fifth wicket partnership. And the pressure was mounting on us despite scoring 716.

"Our bowlers didn't bowl well till lunch. Also the flat wicket was not helping us, but after medium pacer Danish Mansoori took the fifth wicket, it released the pressure on us," he said.</div></div>
