Mysore, Jan 21:
Middle-order batsman Deepak Hooda hit a strokeful century to lift Baroda from a precarious position and end the opening day on 320 for eight against table-toppers Karnataka in the Group A Ranji Trophy cricket match, here today.
Electing to bat in the four-day encounter at Srikantadatta Narasimha Raja Wadeyar Ground, the Aditya Waghmode-led side saw a top-order collapse and were reeling at 93 for five when Hooda (142) stitched a 87-run sixth-wicket partnership with Irfan Pathan (34) to steady the Baroda boat. (PTI)
