Vadodara, Nov 3 (PTI) Opener Shikhar Dhawan (122) hit a composed unbeaten century to put Delhi in a strong position of 300 for two against Baroda on the opening day of their Ranji Trophy Super League Group B match here today.

Right from the toss, everything went in favour of Delhi as their top-order flourished on an easy Moti Bagh stadium strip to pile on the agony of the hosts.

After the cheap dismissal of skipper Aakash Chopra (21), left handed Dhawan and Guarav Chabra (65) batted beautifully as they rattled up a 134-run partnership to negate the early loss after opting to bat.

Murtuza Vohra broke the partnership when he trapped Chabra but there was no respite for Baroda bowlers as Rajat Bhatia continued the good work with Dhawan as the duo racked up an unbeaten 136-run stand for the third wicket.
