Karnataka vs Jammu and Kashmir, Final, Ranji Trophy Elite 2025-26 - Player Highlights

Shikhar Shetty to Kanhaiya Wadhawan, out Caught by Rahul!! Finally Kanhaiya Wadhawan's luck runs out. Good juggling catch at slip. Kruthik Krishna is so happy, he goes and hugs a smiling Shikhar Shetty. On a length outside off, holds its line, Wadhawan goes on the back foot to dab late and it's flying to KL at slip, who shows good reflexes to juggle it and take it on the third attempt. Went low to his right, it pops out, then he flicks it with his left hand up and then hangs on with both hands. As he tumbles to ground, he throws the ball away in delight. They check for a clean catch and it's clean. The ump has a word with KL after all that. Probably explaining the decision to him. Wadhawan rode his luck for a long time and now he goes. Still a fine knock. End of the big stand too. Kanhaiya Wadhawan c Rahul b Shikhar Shetty 70(109) [4s-9]
