With this result, India C got three points due to taking a first-innings lead and remains on top of the standings. Resuming day four from 309/7, India B were bowled out for 332 with Kamboj taking out Rahul Chahar, Navdeep Saini and Mukesh Kumar quickly.
Easwaran was not out on 157 off 286 balls, laced with 14 fours and a six, becoming just the seventh player to carry his bat throughout a Duleep Trophy game. But lack of support from other batters meant India B conceded a 193-run first-innings lead.
Kamboj, hailing from Haryana and picked by Mumbai Indians in IPL 2024, became just the third fast-bowler in the history of Duleep Trophy to pick eight or more wickets in an innings of the tournament. His 8-69 is now the second-best figures by a pacer in Duleep Trophy after former India player Debasis Mohanty’s 10-46.

Leg-spinner Chahar had first-innings centurion Ishan Kishan casted for just one, and returned to trap Gaikwad lbw for 62 off 93 balls. Abishek Porel and Baba Indrajith hanged around before it was decided to shake hands and end the match with a drawn result early in the afternoon.
