Defending champions Mumbai lost to Bengal by 67 runs via the VJD method and face an early elimination here on Sunday. The team led by Shams Mulani has only one win after four matches and is virtually out of contention for the next phase.
Bengal piled up 318-7 in 50 overs, thanks to enterprising tons by Anustup Majumdar (110, 122 balls, 14×4) and Shahbaz Ahmed (106, 97 balls, 8×4, 4×6) following which the Mumbai batters could not get going and fell well short of the target.
India batter Suryakumar Yadav hit a breezy 49 (34 balls, 6×4, 1×6) and Armaan Jaffer made 47 (69 balls, 4×4, 1×6) but their other teammates could not make any significant contributions. Mumbai finished at 223-8 in 41 overs when rain halted play and ended their hopes.
