Delhi-based Harsh Gangwar, the overnight joint leader along with Baisoya, kept himself in the hunt with a 67. Harsh, playing his second season as a professional and yet to win a title, closed the round in second place at 13-under 197.

US-based rookie Varun Chopra, playing his first event as a pro on the PGTI after coming through last week’s qualifying school, was placed third at 12-under 198 following his round of 65 on Thursday.

Baisoya (64-66-65), who has been in the lead since the start of the event, was on a roll after he sank a 25-feet birdie on the first hole. The 27-year-old went on to pick up three more shots till the 10th.

Baisoya’s bogey on the 12th didn’t derail his round as he quickly regained ground.
