Incidentally like Pujara, Jackson had also scored a hundred in the last game.The Saurashtra duo added 243 runs for the fifth wicket after Dinesh Karthik (55) failed to add to his overnight tally.Gambhir's ploy to tire out the opposition just like the earlier match again worked as Yuvraj Singh's bowlers were way off the mark. While the ball had wear and tear due to flat surface, neither Nathu Singh nor Pradeep Sangwan could reverse the ball.Finally when Mishra got Jackson, the Blues were past 600 run mark. But Gambhir, in his bid to make a statement, sent in Ravindra Jadeja who hit merrily for his 48 off 66 balls entertaining the Sunday crowd as Pujara reached 250 with a boundary off Abhinav Mukund.Mukund finally got Jadeja as Gambhir declared the innings. Having fielded for 168.2 overs, Mukund got a delivery from Pankaj that cut back and kept low to rap him on the pads. Sudeep hardly moved his feet to another incoming delivery to be played on.693 for 6 decl in 168.2 overs (Cheteshwar Pujara 256 not out; Sheldon Jackson 134, Gautam Gambhir 94, Amit Mishra 2/171) vs16/2 in 9 overs (Pankaj Singh 2/12)
