Ranji Trophy: Mumbai, Bengal extend perfect starts with crushing wins

Mumbai maintained their dominant run in the Ranji Trophy by securing a 10-wicket victory over Haryana, anchored by Tanush Kotian's career-best bowling performance of 8/81. After dismissing Haryana for 256 in their second innings, Mumbai successfully chased the 97-run target in just 10.4 overs, led by an unbeaten 67 from Angkrish Raghuvanshi and 30 from Divyaansh Saxena.

This result marks the team's third consecutive bonus-point win of the season.

In another fixture, Bengal defeated Kerala by 287 runs, driven by Pradipta Pramanik's maiden 10-wicket match haul. Pramanik claimed 6/51 in the second innings to finish with 10/95, while Shahbaz Ahmed earned Player of the Match honors for his first-innings century and all-round contribution.

Mohammed Shami also played a key role, taking five wickets across the match as Kerala was bowled out for 120 in their final pursuit.
