Rest of India Defeats Jammu and Kashmir by 167 Runs to Win Irani CupPreviousNext

Rest of India defeated Ranji Trophy champions Jammu and Kashmir by 167 runs to win the Irani Cup in Srinagar. Key performances included Mukesh Kumar's six-wicket haul (6 for 33) and Akash Deep's three wickets, which triggered a collapse of J K's batting lineup, all out for 111 while chasing 279. Smaran Ravichandran also starred with centuries in both innings. Jammu and Kashmir had a first-innings lead but could not withstand the bowling attack on the final day, leading to Rest of India's comprehensive victory.
