Mumbai all-rounders Tanush Kotian (4-15) and Shardul Thakur (4-48) ensured a victory by an innings and 456 runs over Meghalaya before lunch on Day Three of their Elite Group ‘A’ Ranji Trophy match at the MCA-BKC ground on Saturday.

In the last league game for the defending champions, they managed to grab seven points, giving the Ajinkya Rahane-led team a total of 29 points from seven games with a place in the quarter-final close to being guaranteed. However, they have to wait for official confirmation as it will depend on the outcome of the ongoing game between Jammu & Kashmir and Baroda, who have 29 and 27 points respectively after six matches.
