Maharashtra Suffer Horror Start To Ranji Trophy Season With Four Ducks
Buchi Babu Invitational Tournament: Maharashtra got off to a 2025/26 Ranji Trophy season with a horror start against last year's runner-up Kerala at the Green Field Stadium here on Wednesday, as they were reeling at 5-4 in the fourth over of their innings.
Kerala’s seamer MD Nidheesh ended Prithvi Shaw’s Maharashtra debut within four deliveries, trapping him lbw off the fourth ball of the opening over. He then removed Siddhesh Veer off the very next delivery before Basil NP took out all-rounder Arshin Kulkarni with his first delivery. Skipper Ankeet Bawana’s resistance ended soon on a spicy wicket, with Basil producing another nip-backing delivery with bounce to knock the stumps down.
Meanwhile, Shaw will be disappointed after failing to score a run in the game. He had scored a cracking ton for Maharashtra in a warm-up match against his former team, Mumbai.
