Ranji Trophy and First class Cricket Record unearthed

04/02/2025 hrg

HR Gopala Krishna, cricket statistician unearths two world records in Ranji Trophy and one world record in First Class cricket.

The two world records in Ranji Trophy are

This partnership not only constitutes a record partnership for any wicket in Ranji Trophy but also constitutes a record partnership for the third wicket in the Ranji Trophy. The previous best partnership for any wicket and for the third wicket was 594 runs unfinished partnerships between SM Gugale and AR Bawne of Maharashtra and Delhi at Wankhere in 2016-17

During this partnership KU Bakhle scored 300 not out while SS Kauthankar scored 314 not out providing the first occasion of two batsmen scoring 300 runs in the same innings in the history of Ranji Trophy. It is also for the first time in two batsmen scoring unbeaten 300 plus runs in the history of Ranji Trophy

World record in First Class cricket

KU Bakhle and SS Kauthankar of Goa posted an unfinished partnership of 606 runs for the third wicket at Porvorim in the Ranji Trophy in Nov 24 to provide the second occasion of batsmen posting 600 plus runs partnership in the history of First class cricket.
