Helping his team surpass Services' first-innings total, Sangram Singh made an unbeaten 215, enabling Himachal Pradesh to declare at 463/5 on Day Three of their Ranji Trophy league match at Una.

Batting with a stodgy Rajiv Nayyar, who made 90 off 289 balls, Sangram Singh hit 26 fours and four sixes in his 308-ball, 405-minute knock. He was the dominant partner in stands with Varinder Sharma, Amit Sharma and Chetan Kumar, none of whom even crossed 20.

Services, now effectively unable to push for a win, were 25 for no loss at stumps on Monday, with openers PMS Reddy and K Chawda at the crease.
