Left-arm pacer Barinder Sran and Bipul Sharma claimed three wickets apiece as Chandigarh defeated Assam by 21 runs to register their third consecutive win in the Plate Group of the Vijay Hazare Trophy one-day cricket tournament here on Friday.
By virtue of this win, Chandigarh jumped to the top of Plate group standings with 12 points from four games.
Electing to bat after rain curtailed the match to 20 overs-a-side affair, Chandigarh posted 166 for seven.
Preet Kamal was their top-scorer with a 25-ball 34 (3x4s, 1x6) but it was no. 9 batsman Jaskarandeep Singh, who produced the late flourish with a 14-ball unbeaten 28-run knock (2x4s, 2x6s).
For Assam, Pritam Das tok three wickets for 26 runs.
In reply, Assam were bundled out for 145 in 19.5 overs with Bipul Sharma (3/14) and Sran (3/25) claiming the honours.
The other two Plate Group matches here -- Puducherry vs Nagaland and Uttarakhand vs Mizoram -- were abandoned because of rain.
