The season so far
This is J&K's fourth match of the season. After three matches they have two points, from two draws and one loss. The report names opener Qamran Iqbal's innings as one of the few bright spots in the batting so far. It says J&K would want the remaining four wickets quickly on Day 2; the article does not report anything from Day 2, so the final outcome is not known at the time of writing.
