Ajinkya Rahane's second century of the match did make the last day's play of Mumbai's Ranji Trophy quarterfinal against Haryana in Rohtak a bit interesting yesterday.
But since Mumbai's semi-final birth was ensured after they took the first innings lead on the penultimate day, the Mumbai camp was more interested in what was happening at the Palam in New Delhi where Delhi were poised to chase Tamil Nadu's first innings total of 463. And when Delhi eventually crossed the TN total to ensure a semi-final against Mumbai in Mumbai from January 3, the 38-times champions must have heaved a sigh of relief.
After all, just a fortnight ago, Mumbai failed to even get the first innings lead against TN at the Bandra-Kurla Complex.
