Mumbai’s stand-in skipper Siddhesh Lad questioned the 9am start of their Vijay Hazare Trophy quarter-final against Karnataka, a match Mumbai lost via VJD method due to rain. Batting in tricky morning conditions, Mumbai managed 254-8, with Shams Mulani scoring 86. Karnataka reached 187-1 in 33 overs before rain intervened

With the tournament’s leading run-getter Devdutt Padikkal (81 not out; 95 balls, 11x4) and veteran India batter Karun Nair (74 not out; 80 balls, 11x4) unbeaten, Karnataka were cruising at 187-1 in 33 overs while chasing a modest 255 when rain stopped play
