Jharkhand 9 for 0 trail Odisha 152 (Pattnaik 43, Nadeem 4-31, Gupta 3-56) by 143 runsScorecard Odisha were undone by a combination of lackluster batting and disciplined bowling from Jharkhand to get bowled out for 152 on the opening day of their Group B clash at the St Xaviers College Ground in Thumba.Saurabh Tiwary, the Jharkhand captain, made a surprising call to field under perfect batting conditions on a warm day with not a cloud in vicinity. But left-arm spinner Shahbaz Nadeem and offspinner Sunny Gupta took seven wickets between them to snuff out Odishas resistance in 84 overs on a flat pitch. In reply, Jharkhands openers Anand Singh and Sumit Kumar saw off the four remaining overs without fuss.Odisha lost their wickets in almost equal installments across the first two sessions, but the manner of procession was different. Tiwary took out seamer Ajay Yadav after just two overs to bring in Nadeem in the fifth over of the day. The bounce on the pitch was mostly consistent; while the odd short ball did rear up, fuller ones were easy pickings given the complete absence of swing.Odisha went into a shell early with Sandeep Pattnaik and Ranjit Singh, their openers, exercising caution against pacers and spinners alike. They batted 27 overs for just 46 runs when the first breakthrough arrived through Nadeem, who extracted bounce from the good-length region to find the outside edge of Ranjits bat.Odishas next three batsmen fell for ducks. First, Govinda Poddar, the captain, edged behind while attempting a cut too close to the body off Nadeem, who then fired a direct hit to send back Abhishek Yadav. Soon, left-arm pacer Vikash Singh had Subhranshu Senapati caught behind and Odisha were reeling at 48 for 4.While the first session had wickets falling to good balls, Odisha hastened the slide with poor strokes in the second. On a normal first-day surface that did not offer unplayable turn, Odishas batsmen showed lack of application.Biplab Samantray steadied the innings for over an hour, adding 36 for the fifth wicket with Pattnaik. Samantray did not hold back from expressing himself, crunching two straight sixes before perishing lbw to Gupta.Then, Pattnaik, the only Odisha batsman to have shown resolve, gave Nadeem the charge and for a catch to mid-off. More wickets followed with batsmen either trying to force the issue or failing to pick the length.Basant Mohanty and Dhiraj Singh went into a blockathon to put on a frustrating last-wicket stand of 32 runs that came off 23.5 overs, before Ajay Yadav closed out the innings by trapping Dhiraj lbw for 8 off 74 balls. Mohanty was unbeaten on 17 off 75.Nmd Sale Ireland . The deal is pending a physical, assistant general manager Bobby Evans said.

He beat Matt Crafton, Christopher Bell and Timothy Peters in a race in which the highest-finisher among the four drivers would win the championship.For Sauter, who finished fourth in the standings the last three years, the format produced his first career NASCAR championship. He did it in his first year with GMS Racing after leaving Thorsport Racing.I think a lot of people questioned that move, Sauter said of his move to the young race team.He wasnt sure he had a strong enough truck to get to the front until the last segment of the race.With 50, 60 (laps) to go, I was like `We really got something here and I started picking people off, he said. Im just a small part of this deal. The whole team executed flawlessly tonight.The 38-year-old has had a career year driving the No. 21 Chevrolet for GMS Racing. He won three races, had 12 top-five finishes and a dominant run in the Chase. Sauter won back-to-back races at Martinsville and Texas, and was runner-up at Phoenix last week. Sauters 13 career NASCAR Camping World Truck Series victories tie him for 11th most all-time in series history.Crew chief Joe Shear Jr. moved to GMS Racing to work with Sauter and the pairing delivered a title.I knew they had all the pieces in the puzzle, I knew it was a great fit or I wouldnt have done it, Shear said. Its just unbelievable. This is the greatest thing in the world.William Byron won the race -- his seventh victory of the season -- to wrap up the owner championship for Kyle Busch Motorsports. It was bittersweeet because it likely should have been Byron celebrating the driver title.ddddddddddddByron was headed toward the win last weekend at Phoenix that would have put him in the final four, but his engine blew in the closing laps. He was eliminated from title contention after the failure.It feels awesome. Its incredible, Byron said of the win. This team has worked hard all year. Just had an unfortunate situation last week that we couldnt control.Busch collected the championship trophy for the second consecutive year and fifth overall.Such a spectacular season by William Bryon, they were flawless, all the way up until Phoenix, Busch said.Tyler Reddick, driving his final race for Brad Keselowski, finished second. Hes moving to an Xfinity Series ride next year for Chip Ganassi.Kyle Larson finished fourth, but led a race-high 76 laps.Crafton, a two-time Truck Series champion, was denied a third title after finishing seventh. He and Sauter waged a decent battle for position during the race, but a poor final run cost Crafton.I kind of figured it was a matter of time. We were just really bad on that last run for whatever reason, he said.Bell finished eighth in trying to win the driver title for Busch.Overall, it wasnt really our year, he said. Just wasnt quite good enough all year long.Timothy Peters was ninth and the lowest-finishing driver of the title contenders.Hey, all in all, we said in the beginning of Daytona that we wanted a shot, Peters said. We had that down here, and we came up just a little bit short. We know what we need to do over the off season, and cant wait for Daytona. ' ' '
