The century knock from Anurag Budhwar (124) and Akul Bhanot (154) helped UT boys to piled up a mammoth of 338/5 (declared) against Himachal Pradesh on the first day of the Vijay Merchant trophy at Shimoga (Karnataka) on Saturday.
The decision to invite Chandigarh bat first proved fatal for HP colts as opener Anurag scored 125 runs off 218 balls with the help of two sixes and 18 fours and Akul Bhanot smashed yet another century of 154 runs off 173 balls. Batter chipped six sixes and 15 fours. In reply, HP scored 46/0 before the stumps were drawn.
