Wow!  I am amazed that Maharashtra did not enforce the follow-on from a
position of that much strength.  Waste of a good opportunity to get an
outright victory.  Maybe the captain was tired of fielding ;-).

Thats the thing with the rules though, isn't it? Why would they need
to enforce the follow on? They have a prety much guarnateed victory
after the first innings. The rest of the match was purely academic for
Maharashtra - so why not opt for some batting practice...
