The Ranji Trophy 2024-25 quarterfinal match between Mumbai and Haryana is currently underway. Mumbai captain Ajinkya Rahane won the toss and decided to bat first. The team has scored 278 runs in the first innings at the loss of 8 wickets so far. However, the top order batsmen could not perform well, and Suryakumar Yadav, who has been struggling with poor form, also failed to make a significant impact.
Flops in T20 series against England
Under Suryakumar Yadav’s captaincy, the Indian team won the T20 series 4-1 against England. Nevertheless, he was unable to deliver impressive performances with the bat, scoring only 28 runs in the entire series. He failed to score in two of the matches and was subsequently not selected for the ODI series against England. As a result, he joined the Mumbai team to participate in domestic cricket.
Just 9 runs against Haryana
Despite hopes that Suryakumar Yadav would regain his form in domestic cricket, he was only able to score 9 runs in the quarterfinal match against Haryana. He was bowled by Haryana bowler Sumit Kumar, who took advantage of Surya’s misjudgment of the ball. The stump was hit directly, resulting in Surya’s dismissal.
Shams Mulani missed a century by 9 runs
The Mumbai team’s innings began poorly, with openers Ayush Mahatre and Akash Anand failing to make significant contributions. However, Shams Mulani and Tanush Kotian helped the team recover from the crisis. Mulani scored 91 runs, narrowly missing a century, while Tanush Kotian remains at the crease with 85 runs. The Mumbai team has so far scored 278 runs at the loss of 8 wickets.
