Riding on seamer Nachiket Bhute’s three-wicket haul and Yash Rathod’s neatly-crafted century, Vidarbha made a grand entry into the Ranji Trophy semifinal, defeating Tamil Nadu by 198 runs on Day Four here on Tuesday.

Vidarbha will take on defending champions Mumbai in the last-four clash on February 17 in a re-match of last season’s final.
