NAGPUR: Yash Dhull smashed his way to 92 but Vidarbha bowling unit proved too good for Rest of India as it comfortably won the Irani Cup by 93 runs here on Sunday.

Chasing a target of 361, Rest of India was all out for 267 in the second session of the fifth day with left-arm spinner Harsh Dubey (4/73) and pacer Yash Thakur (2/47) doing bulk of the damage.

Vidarbha now has played three Irani Cup games and won all three.

Credit would go to Dubey and Thakur -- both of whom had a match-haul of six wickets and did well enough to get majority of the 20 Rest of India wickets across two innings.

Rest had slumped to 133 for six during the first session on the final morning but it was Dhull and Manav Suthar (56), who got Rest of India back in the game with a 104-run stand for the seventh wicket
