NEW DELHI: Seasoned pacer Mohammed Shami<\/a> delivered 15 dot balls in his sixth consecutive SMAT T20 fixture, while Karan Lal produced a remarkable 94 runs from 47 deliveries, leading Bengal to a commanding nine-wicket victory over Bihar in a Group A encounter in Rajkot.
Playing without their young talent Vaibhav Suryavanshi, Bihar posted 147 for 6 in their allocated 20 overs, with Sayan Ghosh proving effective with figures of 2\/32.<\/p>\n

How a change in batting position could well help Rohit Sharma in Tests<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Bengal successfully chased down the target in 14 overs, with Lal’s innings featuring nine boundaries and six maximums.
The spotlight remained on Shami, who maintained his disciplined bowling performance, recording figures of 1\/18 in 4 overs, following his previous spell of 0\/16 in 4 overs against Meghalaya.
In the past 11 days, Shami has participated in six T20 matches, delivering 23.3 overs out of a possible 24. His wicket tally stands at five, with three dismissals coming against Hyderabad.
The uncertainty continues regarding Shami’s selection for the Border Gavaskar Trophy.
Brief Scores: Bihar 147\/6 in 20 overs (Sayan Ghosh 2\/32, Mohammed Shami 1\/18). Bengal 150\/1 (Karan Lal 94 not out, Sudip Kr Gharami 32 not out). Bengal won by 9 wickets.<\/span><\/p>\n
