Nand Kishore slams double century

Continuing where he left off on Day One, Hyderabad opener Nand Kishore scored 214, further tormenting Karnaka's bowlers on Day Two of their Ranji Trophy league match at Secunderabad.

Although his partner Daniel Manohar fell early in the day, Nand Kishore put up significant partnerships with Anirudh Singh and Arjun Yadav before finally falling with the score on 425. He made his 214 off 407 balls, hitting 35 fours and spending more than nine hours at the crease.

Yadav himself went on to make 89 before falling as the last wicket. Replying to their rivals' mammoth 577, Karnataka openers played out four overs before the close of play, knowing that they could never hope to win this match and would even struggle to draw it.
