Mumbai Regains Momentum with Dominant Ranji Trophy Victory

Mumbai, the defending Ranji Trophy champions, achieved a decisive nine-wicket victory over Maharashtra, recovering from an initial defeat to Baroda. Prithvi Shaw led the team to six points in the second Group A league game. The match's outcome was set early, largely due to Mumbai's robust performance.

Mumbai, after a challenging start in the Ranji Trophy, bounced back with an impressive nine-wicket triumph over Maharashtra. The victory was crucial after an opening loss to Baroda in the Group A fixtures.

Going into the final day with 13 for no loss, Mumbai effectively secured the win needing just 74 runs. Though Ayush Mhatre's dismissal for 15 denied them a bonus point, Prithvi Shaw and Hardik Tamore quickly wrapped up the match, bringing six points to their tally.

This success was primarily built on the first day's dominance when they bundled out Maharashtra for 126, followed by Mhatre and Shreyas Iyer's stellar batting performances. Meanwhile, Baroda continued their winning streak, defeating Services in Delhi with Mahesh Pithiya's exceptional bowling display.
