Kerala On Brink Of History, Set To Enter Ranji Trophy Final For First Time
Former Kerala Ranji: In a remarkable turn of events, Kerala's senior cricket team, devoid of big names, restricted Gujarat to two runs short of Kerala’s first-innings total of 457, thereby stand on the cusp of securing its first-ever Ranji Trophy final berth.
This historic feat came just days after they secured a one-run first-innings lead against Jammu and Kashmir in the quarterfinals held in Pune earlier this month.
Following their entry into the semifinals for only the second time, the final day of the semifinal match on Friday was precariously poised for both Kerala and Gujarat. Gujarat needed 28 runs with three wickets remaining to advance to the final based on the first-innings total. However, Kerala will end up on the winning side by taking the 10th Gujarat wicket, falling two runs short of Kerala's first innings total.
