by

East Zone, led by Ishan Kishan have assumed total control in the ongoing Duleep Trophy final against South Zone in Chennai. Batting first, East Zone scored 708 runs in the first innings, with Kishan amassing 270.

Young Vaibhav Sooryavanshiwho is the vice-captain of the team, helped his team get their first wicket. The incident happened on the second ball of the sixth over when Mukesh Kumar drifted down the leg side, and Ricky Bhui tried to flick it past the fine-leg region.

Wicketkeeper Kushagra appealed for caught behind, but the umpire was unmoved. With just two seconds left on the DRS timer, Ishan decided to use the technology. There was an edge of the bat, and the bowling side got the first wicket. Once the decision was reversed, East Zone celebrated the departure of Bhui for one run.

Vaibhav played a big role and was heard shouting, ‘Lelo, Lelo; (Take it). “Take it…take it. The vice-captain urges the captain to take the review, and it turns out to be successful,” BCCI wrote.
