Tiwari scored a fine 102 as Bengal posted 273 in the first innings. After reaching triple figures, Tiwari raised his bat in joy and acknowledged the applause from the Bengal dressing room. Not only that, Tiwari had also held out a handwritten note with a heartwarming message for his wife and children.
Tiwary, who is also the Minister of State for Youth Affairs and Sports in West Bengal, bailed Bengal out from a sticky position to score his second successive century in India's premier domestic competition. He had also scored a century in the quarter final in Jharkhand.
Apart from his heroics with the bat, what stole the show was his gesture for his family after he scored the century. Tiwary held aloft a handwritten note which had the name of his wife and other family members along with a heart sign.
