New Delhi, Jan 23: The sixth round of the 2024/25 Ranji Trophy season began with much fanfare on Thursday, with all eyes being on the Indian Test team players turning out for their respective state teams. Following the Board of Control for Cricket in India’s (BCCI) guidelines that made it mandatory for international cricketers to play domestic matches, Ravindra Jadeja had a day to remember on his return to Ranji Trophy by picking 5-66 and making 38 with the bat for Saurashtra on Day One of their game against Delhi.

Jadeja dismissed Yash Dhull, and Ayush Badoni, Navdeep Saini, Harsh Tyagi, and Sanat Sangwan to pick a brilliant five-wicket haul and help Saurashtra dismiss Delhi for 188 runs in Rajkot. Delhi had wicketkeeper-batter Rishabh Pant turning out for them, but he made just one of 10 balls as his attempt to sweep off-spinner Dharmendrasinh Jadeja ended in him being caught at deep square leg.
