good interview this.
http://www.espncricinfo.com/ranji-troph ... 72037.html

hectic few days for nair, rahul, ashwin and vijay all playing in the quarter finals of ranji trophy.

Mixed reports on the Neutral pitches.

I would personally keep it.
Tamil nadu being the success story normally play 4 spinners and not give a change to pace men because of neutral pitches found couple of pace men that had good success in debut season and other team with spinners having success struggled on pacier/flatter decks.
should improve the all round game for all the players and not be one dimensional.

karnataka struggling in the quarters 72/6 and they include Nair and Rahul in their side.
2 medium pace bowlers take 3 wicket each.
Mumbai also struggling losing 4 wickets in the morning session.
former india under 19 bowler miland taking 3 wickets.
Gujarat also lose 2 early wicket against odisha.
and finally Haraya scores 102/3 against jharkhand.

Karnataka eventually out for 88!

Ouch.

Mumbai managed to pull it back together thanks to Lad though.

Mumbai win by 30 runs.

gujarat win on first innings
bumrah winning the game with the ball in first innings but for some weird reason gujarat scored 600 odd in the 3rd innings and didn't go for the win.
359 for gohel
odisha had to chase 706 in 22 overs lol.

jharkand win by 5 wickets
ishan kishan 86 wins the game.

Tamil nadu win by 7 wickets
kl rahul scored a good 77 runs in a low scoring game
but dinesh karthik win the game with a quick fire 41 to chase 80 runs.

mumbai call up an 17 yr old batsman for the semis.
will he be a new indian batsman sensation from Mumbai.
prithvi shaw.
Shaw scored 546 runs in a harris shield game he held the record until pranav dhanawade broke the record famously.
Mumbai missing 5 regular batsman for various reasons.

We are into Semis yet again.

prithvi shaw hits a century on debut as mumbai reach the final.
Come on Gujarat.
Gujarat vs Mumbai is the Ranji trophy final.

Spotted on Cricinfo. Kind of emphasises how amazing Barbados is, because you'd really fancy the Barbados team against this, even given how much smaller its catchment is. But, I suspect, much better than a London XI.

Dilip Vengsarkar

Sachin Tendulkar

Polly Umrigar (captain)

He is from Shrirampur . Came to Mumbai but one club coach demanded mone from him to play. So it did not work out. Then one prominent Mumbai coach introduced him to one of the clubs and thats how his career progressed in Mumbai domestic cricket.He played for Baroda as well. Baroda won when Zak represented them in 2011 taking five fer in one innings.

This is our 46th time in finals.

Out of the previous 45 times we were in final we won title 41 times.

Final is versus Gujarat at Indore.
