THE BENCHMARK
42 Ranji titles. No team in cricket history — anywhere in the world — has dominated a domestic competition like Mumbai has dominated the Ranji Trophy. Under captain Shardul Thakur and coach Omkar Salvi, Mumbai topped Group D in 2025-26 with 4 wins and 33 points.
Shams Mulani was sensational — 7/46 against eventual champions J&K in Round 1, 5/59 against Chhattisgarh, 5/37 against Himachal Pradesh. Siddhesh Lad scored three centuries (116, 127, 170) in the group stage. Sarfaraz Khan smashed 227 against Hyderabad in Round 6.
The quarter-final against Karnataka was a heartbreaker. Mumbai were bowled out for 120 in the first innings but fought back to set 325 in the fourth innings. KL Rahul's 130 settled it — Karnataka won by 4 wickets. The deepest talent pipeline in India will be back.
"When Mumbai Met J&K in Round 1"
Mumbai beat J&K by 35 runs in Srinagar in the opening round — Shams Mulani taking 7/46 to bowl out the eventual champions. It was J&K's only defeat in the group stage, the loss that sparked their remarkable comeback run to the title.
