The Buchi Babu Cricket Tournament is underway, with Pandya and Sarfaraz Khan hitting consecutive centuries for their respective teams on the first day. A total of six centuries were scored on the first day of the tournament. Kohli, however, was not as fortunate as Pandya, missing his half-century by 2 runs. Both Pandya and Kohli are playing for the same team in the Buchi Babu. Despite Kohli’s near miss, it did not significantly impact the team’s score.
Pandya and Kohli are both part of the same team in the Buchi Babu tournament, representing Baroda. The Pandya being discussed is Nitya Pandya, while Kohli refers to Parth Kohli.
In the first match of the Buchi Babu tournament, Baroda faced Odisha. Nitya Pandya and Harsh Desai opened the innings for Baroda, forming a partnership of 73 runs. Harsh Desai was out after scoring 31 runs, but Nitya Pandya remained at the crease. He then formed a century partnership with Sukrit Pandey, during which he also completed his century.
Nitya Pandya scored 102 runs off 175 balls, including 12 fours and 1 six. He is the same young batsman who played alongside Vaibhav Suryavanshi and Ayush Mhatre in the Test series against Australia’s Under-19 team last year. In that Test series, he was also the highest run-scorer for India.
After Nitya Pandya got out, Parth Kohli came in to bat at number 4. However, he could only score 48 runs, including 6 fours. With Nitya Pandya’s century, the Baroda team managed to score 381 runs for 6 wickets on the first day and decided to declare the innings at the same score on the second day, putting Odisha on the field.
