West Zone’s two Mumbaikars —opener Yashasvi Jaiswal (265, 30x4, 4x6) and Sarfaraz Khan (127 not out, 11x4, 2x6) frustrated South Zone on Day Four of the Duleep Trophy final at Coimbatore on Saturday.

After conceding a first innings lead of 57 runs, West bounced back and declared their second innings at 585-4. Their pacers — Jaydev Unadkat and Atit Sheth — along with left-arm spinner Shams Mulani, who claimed two wickets apiece, did not disappoint the team management as South were struggling at 154 for six at stumps.
