New Delhi. Indian team's aggressive batsman Ishan Kishan hit nine sixes during his unbeaten innings of 77 runs in 23 balls, helping Jharkhand beat Arunachal Pradesh by 10 wickets in a Group C match of the Syed Mushtaq Ali trophy on Friday. Meanwhile, in Rajkot, India's fast bowler Mohammed Shami got injured during Bengal's Group A match against Madhya Pradesh at the Saurashtra Cricket Association Stadium.

Shivam Shukla took four wickets for 29 runs, helping Madhya Pradesh restrict Bengal to 189 for nine and win the match by six wickets. Captain Rajat Patidar (68 off 40 balls) and Subhranshu Senapati (50 off 33 balls) hit quick half-centuries as Madhya Pradesh registered an easy win. However, the discussion about Shami's fall continued. While bowling the last over of Madhya Pradesh's innings, Shami fell while trying to stop the ball and it seemed that the ball hit his shoe.

The fast bowler, who returned after being out for a long time due to injury, was feeling uncomfortable. He was lying on the ground and holding his lower back. Nitin Patel, head of the medical panel of the 'Center of Excellence', immediately reached the field to examine the bowler. However, there has been no serious injury due to the fall.

Opener Kishan was playing aggressively in the Group C match, helping his team reach 94 runs in just 4.3 overs. The wicketkeeper-batsman was bought by Sunrisers Hyderabad for Rs 11.25 crore in the IPL mega auction on Sunday. Among the bowlers for Jharkhand, Anukul Roy took four wickets for 17 runs and Ravi Kumar Yadav took three wickets for 12 runs. At the same time, Uttar Pradesh also registered a spectacular victory by 4 wickets. They defeated Haryana. Rinku Singh scored 30 not out by hitting 3 sixes in the match.
