Ranji Trophy: Yash Rathod’s Masterclass Puts Vidarbha On Brink Of Final
Skipper Ajinkya Rahane: Yash Rathod’s sensational 151, his fifth century of the season, propelled Vidarbha into a commanding position, setting Mumbai a record-breaking target of 406 for a place in the 2024-25 Ranji Trophy final.
As the match heads into its final day in Nagpur, Mumbai’s hopes of scripting history took a hit, with the 41-time champions stumbling to 83 for 3 at stumps. Skipper Ajinkya Rahane’s late dismissal further dented their chances, leaving them with a mammoth task to pull off the highest-ever successful chase in Ranji Trophy history.
Mumbai’s chase got off to a shaky start as their top order struggled against Vidarbha’s left-arm spinners. Harsh Dubey, the tournament’s leading wicket-taker, struck early to remove Ayush Mhatre and Siddhesh Lad while Parth Rekhade once again proved to be Rahane’s nemesis, dismissing him with a delivery that stayed low.
