The part-time legspinner Tiwary (2/19) claimed two wickets including that of
J&K top run-getter Bandeep Singh (73; 8×4, 1×6) to bowl the visitors out for
315 in their first essay, giving Bengal a handy 72-run first innings lead.
The stylish Bengal batsman then decimated the J&K attack, scoring an unbeaten 52 off 37 deliveries (6×4) as they ended the day at 216 for three, a total lead of 288 runs.
“We want to bat tomorrow (Friday) as well and take the lead to at least 350. Our first target is to secure a draw and then declare as soon as possible,” said Tiwary after the third day’s play.
Bengal approached their second innings positively as the opening pair of Abhimanyu Easwaran (63) and Arindam Das (60) put on 126 runs together at a healthy 4.0 run rate.
Earlier, J&K resumed the day on 183 for five but lost Shubham Singh Pundir in the second ball when Bengal’s leading wicket taker Ashok Dinda (3/102) castled the left-hander.
But it was Bandeep, who stood tall and took them past the follow-on mark of 237 with No. 9 Ram Dayal who also prove to be a thorn for the Bengal bowlers with a gritty 62 not out (7×4, 1×6).
Brief Scores: Bengal: 387 & 216 for 3 in 44 overs (Abhimanyu Easwaran 63, Arindam Das 60, Manoj Tiwary 52 batting). J&K: 315 all out in 112.5 overs (Bandeep Singh 73, Ian Dev Singh Chauhan 73, Ram Dayal 62 not out; Ashok Dinda 3/102).
