J&K shocks defending Ranji Trophy champion Mumbai; wins by 5 wickets

STC NEWS MONITORING DESK
MUMBAI, JANUARY 25 (STC): Jammu & Kashmir scripted history when it defeated Mumbai in an Elite Group A match of Ranji Trophy by 5-wickets. The defeat is shocking as Rohit Sharma’s return to domestic cricket after 10 years failed to impress.
Having been set a target of 205, Jammu and Kashmir were 112/1, but then fell to 159/5, before the pairing of Abid Mushtaq and Kanhaiya Wadhavan took the team over the line. Shams Mulani picked up four wickets for the defending champions Mumbai but his effort with the ball just wasn’t enough.
Notably, Rohit made a return to Ranji Trophy after the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) mandated domestic cricket participation even for veteran international players. However, the return was not at all impressive. (STC)
