Kiran Karthikeyan hopes to break into TNPL, IPL on the back of consistent performances

Tamil Nadu’s Kiran Karthikeyan credited a simple, disciplined approach for helping his team secure a crucial first-innings lead (71) against Maharashtra on the second day of the Col. C. K. Nayudu Trophy final.

On a surface that “was slow” and produced occasional low balls and big turners, Kiran chose attrition over aggression, trusting his defence and focussing on occupying the crease for long periods rather than chasing runs.

The strength of the Ranji Trophy can be gauged by the fact that the nine editions preceding 2025-26 were won by five different teams. Of these, four were first-time winners. It is also a tough competition to win because it requires months-long excellence, adaptability to different pitches and weather conditions, and above all, supreme fitness.

In October 2025, only a very brave man would have picked Jammu & Kashmir to win the title. But Paras Dogra and his band of merry men upset the cricketing hierarchy and disregarded pedigree to clinch its maiden domestic red-ball crown.
