‘When someone says “I think your time’s done”, it can be hard’: Karthik offers support to India senior after Test drop
Ajinkya Rahane, Cheteshwar Pujara, Wriddhiman Saha, and Ishant Sharma were excluded from the squad for the two-Test series against Sri Lanka. The exclusion of wicketkeeper-batter Saha raised certain eyebrows and the player’s comments following his exclusion ignited controversy in Indian cricket.
Saha had stated that he was assured of a place by the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) President Sourav Ganguly after his half-century knock against New Zealand in November. Two months later, he was told by Rahul Dravid that his selection in the Indian team is unlikely in the future.
With the veteran wicketkeeper-batter unlikely to make a return in the near future, fellow India wicketkeeper Dinesh Karthik lauded Saha on his contribution to Indian cricket and offered his support to the senior player after his unceremonious ouster.

Mumbai defeats Vidarbha by 169 runs to win the 42nd Ranji Trophy, capping an eight-year reign.
Mumbai overcame Vidarbha by 169 runs in the Wankhede Stadium final on Thursday to end an eight-year drought for a record-tying 42nd Ranji Trophy victory. Vidarbha put up a valiant fight in the second inning to chase a massive 538 runs, but on Day 5, they were eventually bowled out for 368.
Vidarbha put up a valiant battle on Day 5 of the final, with captain Akshay Wadkar and Harsh Dubey leading the team’s struggle against Ajinkya Rahane’s troops. Vidarbha scored 81 runs in the opening session without losing a wicket thanks to the two’s resolute stance at the crease, which frustrated the home team.
Mumbai defeated Vidarbha by a commanding 169 runs in the Ranji Trophy final, putting on an outstanding display.
Following lunch, Wadkar gave Vidarbha’s innings a boost with a magnificent century, showcasing his batting prowess. But when it was time to step it up, Tanush Kotian got his wicket by lbw-ing Wadkar.
Following the captain’s exit, Vidarbha’s batting lineup came under increasing pressure. Even Dubey, who showed fortitude by hitting a steely 65 off 128 deliveries, gave in to the pressure of the scoreboard.
Mumbai’s bowlers strengthened their hold on the game as the innings went on. Vidarbha’s bottom order offered little resistance as Mumbai quickly completed the innings in just the next 25 deliveries.
Ajinkya Rahane gave the ball to Dhawal Kulkarni in a crucial moment following the loss of the ninth wicket in his final domestic encounter. With just his third ball of the spell, Kulkarni quickly secured the vital wicket of Umesh Yadav, securing Mumbai’s 42nd championship.
Mumbai won their first Ranji Trophy since 2016. The domestic powerhouses increased their lead over other teams in the standings for the most trophies won in the first-class competition. With Karnataka coming in a distant second, no other team has won the Ranji Trophy more times than this one.
