After openers Mayank Agarwal (42) and Lokesh Rahu (34) put on 80, Karnataka lost six wickets for just 97 runs before Ganesh Satish (36 batting) and skipper Vinay Kumar (22) added 44 for the seventh wicket to retrieve the situation.
For Gujarat, new ball bowlers Mehul Patel and Jasprit Bumrah and left-arm spinner Rakesh Dhruv took two wickets apiece.
Brief scores:
Karnataka (1st innings): 226 for 7 in 90 overs (Mayank Agarwal 42, Lokesh Rahul 34, Kunal Kapoor 57, Ganesh Satish 36 not out, R Vinay Kumar 22, Mehul Patel 2 for 27, Jasprit Bumrah 2 for 53, Rakesh Dhruv 2 for 51) vs Gujarat.
