Despite the high expectations that accompanied the return of Indian stars for the Ranji Trophy, it ended with disappointment as renowned players such as Rohit Sharma, Rishabh Pant, and Shubman Gill returned home quite early with their respective teams.
The disappointment suffering during the championship round of the top red ball competition on Thursday was finally put to rest with the inclusion of Rohit Sharma, Rishabh Pant, and Shubman Gill into the Ranji tournament. After a diabolical series in Australia, he participated in the Ranji for the first time in over ten years to try and polish his game ahead of the Champions trophy. However, it was not the case during the first innings of the match between him and the J&K team. He made the mistake of sending a request to his personal assistant to type the off Umar Nazir in an email to him. Rather, he is better known for batting too aggressively. This mistake led Rohit to get a leading edge which ultimately was caught by his J&K’s Dogra at the mid-off.
Similarly, his teammate and partner Yashasvi Jaiswal was looking to score off the new ball too aggressively and was removed too easily for 4 runs.
Both his feet were placed in front of the stumps and pushed back to swing which provided quite a terrifying sight at the BKC ground In contrast, Auqib Nabi was cashing in on a very lively new ball.
While part of the Champions Trophy squad, Shreyas Iyer (11) was caught at mid on by pace bowler Yudhvir Singh.
Though attendance at the stadium to see India’s cricketing stars was quite sparse, followers watching from the nearby office building returned to work after the 37-year-old Rohit was out of the game.
In Rajkot, Pant in the 2017-2018 season turned up for Delhi in a first-class game but he couldn’t last long in the middle. The flamboyant left hander was out for 1 Runs off 10 balls at the hands of veteran Saurashtra left arm spinner Dharmendrasingh Jadeja.
Indian all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja also forms part of the Saurashtra players. In Bengaluuru, Shubman Gill (4) was out caught behind in the match of Punjab with Karnataka. He was dismissed by Abhilash Shetty in the fourth over of the innings. For more Cricket Latest Update, Click Here
