Later, Sudip was involved in crucial partnerships with Abhishek Raman (36), Writtick Chatterjee (47) and skipper Manoj Tiwary (30) to keep the flow of runs steady for Bengal. 

The left-hander forged a 46-run second wicket stand with opener Raman followed by partnerships of 74 and 68 runs with Writtick and Tiwary respectively. 

Sudip was later sent back to the pavilion by a Manan delivery which was played on the back foot and caught by a diving Unmukt Chand in the covers. 

Following the dismissal, middle-order batsman Anustup Majumdar (32) played a vital knock before he was snapped up by Saini in the 81st over.
