Rohit’s long-awaited Ranji return lasts only 19 balls

Rohit Sharma’s return to the Ranji Trophy after nearly a decade was short-lived as he was dismissed early by Jammu and Kashmir’s Umar Nazir. Despite his comeback to maintain match fitness following a tough international series, Rohit managed only a brief appearance, further compounded by Yashasvi Jaiswal’s quick departure. The last time Rohit played a Ranji game for Mumbai, he scored a brilliant 113 while batting at No 4 in a drawn match against Uttar Pradesh.
