Gaurav Ghei recovered from a couple of dropped strokes to play a creditable two-under 69 Round Two under tough conditions and move up to a tied third position at the 1.05 million dollar Indonesia Open in Jakarta on Friday.
Gaurav aggregated five-under 137 in two rounds to share tied third position with three others.
Australia's Andrew Tampion, who fired a solid five-under 66 today, led the field with eight-under 134 when bad light stopped the second round.
The round will be completed on Saturday.
Meanwhile, overnight tied-third, Shiv Kapur was erratic as he mixed five bogeys and three birdies to return a poor two-over 73 card. His eventful second round saw him dropping down to tied 18th spot which he shares with, among others, compatriot SSP Chowrasia. The Kolkatan was one-over after 15 holes when play was stopped.
Among other Indians in the fray, Amandeep Johl and Rahil Gangjee were hardly impressive and were poised to miss the cut.
