Hello
Sachin (30) and Salman Nizar (24) were at the crease after yet another top-order flop show.
The visitors reached 137/2 in reply to Kerala's 342 at stumps on the second day of their Elite Group C match.
Off-spinner Saxena picked up eight wickets on the final day as Services were bowled out for 136 shortly after lunch.
After Sachin Baby's 159 took them to a first innings total of 327, Kerala reduced Services to 167/6 at stumps on day two.
Kerala, who conceded a first innings lead of 46, are ahead 126 by going into the final day with four wickets in hand.
Jalaj Saxena was declared man of the match for his match haul of 11/123.
Captain Harpreet made a fine 152 as the visitors were bowled out for 287 in their second innings with Jalaj Saxena claiming 6/75. Kerala need 126 to win on the final day.
After bowling out Chhattisgarh for a modest 149, the home side ended the day on 100/2.
Tigers amassed 211/4 in 20 overs after opting to bat. Nikhil smashed 57 off 35 balls, while Basith remained unbeaten on 54 off 26 balls. Krishnan came up with a 35-ball 54.
Saxena was part of Mumbai Indians, Royal Challengers Bangalore and Delhi Capitals squads in the past, but never got a chance to showcase his skills on the big stage.
