Round-up of the day three of the Ranji Trophy 2016-17 semifinals — Gujarat v Jharkhand and Mumbai v Tamil Nadu — here.

Gujarat v Jharkhand at Nagpur

Update: After dismissing Jharkhand for 408, Gujarat was at 100 for 4 at the end of day three. Ishank Jaggi and Kaushal Singh were the star batsmen for Jharkhand on Tuesday, but R.P. Singh with six wickets wrecked havoc. Gujarat lost its star batsman Priyank Panchal early in the second innings, before Samit Gohil, start of previous match, scored 49. However, he fell one short of half-century as he was trapped leg-before by Shahbaz Nadeem. Manpreet Juneja and Hardik Patel were batting at stumps. Gujarat lead by 82 runs. Shahbaz Nadeem took all three wickets for Jharkhand.

Mumbai v Tamil Nadu at Rajkot

Update: Tamil Nadu may have dismissed Mumbai for 406, but gritty performances by Abhishek Nayar and Shardul Thakur lower down the order proved to be headache for the South Indian side. The day ended with Mumbai leading by 101 runs in the first innings. Day four will start with Tamil Nadu batsmen hoping to provide a better show than its first innings. Vijay Shankar was the pick of the bowlers for Tamil Nadu with four wickets.
