Shubham Khujaria Scores Historic Double Century for J&K in Ranji Trophy After 22 Years
October 13: Shubham Khujaria etched his name in Jammu & Kashmir’s cricket history by becoming the first batter in 22 years to score a double-century in the Ranji Trophy. Khujaria achieved this remarkable feat against Maharashtra during a match held in Srinagar on Saturday.
The last batter from J&K to reach the double-century milestone was Ashwani Gupta, who accomplished it in 2002 against Bihar. Khujaria’s exceptional knock not only ended the two-decade-long drought but also provided a solid foundation for J&K in a crucial fixture.
This innings highlights Khujaria’s resilience and skill, placing him among the elite performers in domestic cricket. His performance is expected to boost the morale of the team as they aim to make a strong impact in the tournament.
J&K cricket fans and experts have lauded Khujaria’s achievement, expressing hope for more such performances that will bring greater recognition to the region’s cricketing talent.
