Ranji Trophy Final: Nabi Takes Fifer As J&K Bowl Out Karnataka For 293, Take 291-run Lead
Ranji Trophy Final: Right-arm pacer Auqib Nabi picked up his seventh five-wicket haul of the season as Jammu & Kashmir bowled out Karnataka for 293 in 93.3 overs, taking a massive 291-run first-innings lead in the Ranji Trophy 2025-26 Final at the Hubli Cricket Ground on Friday.
Karnataka began cautiously in reply to Jammu and Kashmir’s first-innings total of 584, scoring just 27 runs in the first ten overs. Auqib kept things tight with a series of maiden overs and got the breakthrough in the 12th over, inducing a faint edge from Rahul that wicketkeeper Kanhaiya Wadhawan safely collected.
The visitors increased the pressure when Sunil Kumar dismissed Devdutt Padikkal. Soon after, Nabi struck twice in two balls, removing Karun Nair and Smaran Ravichandran to leave Karnataka struggling at 57/4.
