Vidarbha registered their first ever a Ranji Trophy win against seven-time champions Delhi in sublime style at the Holkar Cricket Stadium in Indore on Monday.
Vidarbha was set a target of 29 runs to clinch championship after Delhi were bundled out for just 280 in their second innings. Vidarbha chased down the target with ease despite losing skipper Faiz Fazal early in their second innings.
Veteran batsman Wasim Jaffer smashed the winning runs for Vidarbha as he won the Ranji Trophy for the ninth time in his career. Jaffer kept his invincible record going as he has now featured in nine Ranji finals and has managed to come out victorious in all of them.
