Just a few days ago, <a href="https://www.mid-day.com/sports/cricket/article/ajinkya-rahane-co-eye-maiden-syed-mushtaq-ali-title-against-hp-today-23253905" target="_blank" rel="none noopener">Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy</a> champions Mumbai suffered a big loss to Services in the Vijay Hazare Trophy. It seemed the Ajinkya Rahane-led outfit hardly learnt any lessons from that defeat as they lost to Maharashtra by 21 runs in their Elite Group &lsquo;E&rsquo; encounter in Ranchi on Thursday. &nbsp;
Mumbai bowlers again failed to dismiss the opponents&rsquo; opening pair early.

<h2>Tripathi, Shah on fire</h2>
Last Sunday, while chasing Mumbai&rsquo;s 265-9, Services openers Shubham Rohilla (135) and Ravi Chauhan (100) put on 231 runs. And on Thursday, while batting first, Maharashtra&rsquo;s opening pair of Rahul Tripathi (156 not out, 18x4, 2x6) and debutant Pavan Shah (84, 7x4, 2x6) put on 180. Azim Kazi (32-ball 50 not out) and skipper Ankit Bawne 28-ball 34 also contributed to Maharashtra&rsquo;s 342-2 in 50 overs.

In reply, like in the last game against Services where Yashasvi Jaiswal got a century, he gave his best by scoring a 135-ball 142 (14x4, 4x6). Armaan Jaffer (36), Prithvi Shaw (32) and captain Ajinkya Rahane (31) tried their best, but that was not enough to win the game.&nbsp;
Nashik-based Maharashtra&rsquo;s left-arm spinner Satyajeet Bachhav (6-46) did most of the damage.
When asked where Mumbai lost the game, Jaiswal said: &ldquo;It&rsquo;s about one or two overs. In a few overs we concede more runs. I don&rsquo;t think it was a 340 pitch. But it&rsquo;s alright&hellip;one or two overs went badly.&rdquo;
After three matches in the Group &lsquo;E&rsquo;, Mumbai have only four points with one win (against Bengal) while Railways and Maharashtra are leading with 12 points each.&nbsp;

<h2>Kuldeep Sen stars</h2>
Meanwhile, in a must-win game to keep their knockout hopes alive, Madhya Pradesh beat Uttarakhand by 10 runs at the <a href="https://www.mid-day.com/sports/cricket/article/its-spy-v-spy-for-mumbai-cricket-association-presidents-post-23251360" target="_blank" rel="none noopener">Mumbai Cricket Association</a>&rsquo;s Bandra-Kurla Complex ground.
Shubham Sharma, who scored 100 and pacer Kuldeep Sen (4-51), who will be leaving for the New Zealand tour for his maiden India tour, were the chief architects of MP&rsquo;s triumph.
Brief scores Maharashtra 342-2 in 50 overs (R Tripathi 156*, P Shah 84, A Kazi 50*) beat Mumbai 321-10 in 49 overs (Y Jaiswal 142; S Bachhav 6-46, S Kazi 2-67) by 21 runs
