Ranji trophy 2018-19

Rinku Singh's stats are interesting to look at - he has played across multiple seasons and has an avg of 70+ with a SR of nearly 70 in the middle and lower-middle order. I have not seen him bat enough to arrive at an opinion, but I wonder if he may prove to be a useful player (especially short formats). Having a counter-punching No.5 or No.6 could be a real asset.

I was really impressed with Jonty Sidhu, scores a 100. Reminds of young Yuvraj. You guys seen any other bright left handers ?

Seen him in 2 knocks.  Both times looked class.  Another yubi clone like dubey.  Yuvi legacy secure lol

 

This Jonty massivley one to keep an eye on.  Might be one for India A already, I was that impressed

Group A and B = 5 spots

Group C = 2 spots

Plate = 1 spot

 

Top team from Plate group is promoted to Group C.  Top 2 teams from Group C and bottom team from groups A and B swap places.

 

Btw, consider  Group A and B as  the old 'elite' groups where as Group C is the old 'plate' group.  Group C is the lowest ranked teams from last season.  Don't know why they have named Group C as Elite.  Should named it Division 1 for Groups A,B Division 2 for Group C and Division 3.  

 

As for how the 5 spots of Groups A and B are distributed, I think it's whoever has the most points across both groups.    You'd think that atleast the top team from both groups A and B advances automatically but they've basically treated both groups as one when tallying up the points which doesn't make sense IMO.   Should've had top two teams from each group advance respectively and the 5th spot i.e the "wild card" spot should've gone to the team with the highest points across both groups.

 

 

Or they could have given top 3 from A and * and 1 from C and 1 from plate. Have the same swaps as it is now. A lot of matches do get abandonned due to rain, it is not fair to choose across groups based on points alone.

So in the end, great chase by Kerala so 4 teams qualify from group A and only one from group B?  Sounds idiotic to rank teams from different groups by points.  Like mentioned before, should've had 2 from each and one wildcard spot ( 5th team with most points )..

 

Could be wrong but looks like Vidharbha, Saurashtra, Karnataka, Kerala, Gujarat  make it out of Groups A,B ( 4 from group A)

Rajasthan and UP from group C, and Uttarkhand from plate

Idiotic to say the least. What was Ganguly/TC thinking.

He didn't do anything good for KKR so T20 seems out of option. May be worth trying in ODIs.

Harsh to judge him based on 4 matches he played as a 20 year old. As he’s scored all his FC runs at number 6, definitely worth giving him a run with A team soon.

seems more of an odi or even test player to me. should first tour with ind a and play at 5 or 6 to see how he does.

yes, sidhu's batting is very easy on the eyes. seems to play spin well too - lovely footwork.

How has Anmolpreet Singh performed this season? From the bits i've seen, he is a very good talent, young and aggressive against spin. Good to see Gill bossing it.

relatively poor season after the stellar first season. just 1 100 this time around

Jonty Sidhu looks better version of yuvi

Certainly looks physically strong,few of his sixes looked huge

Was fairly composed,used his feets to the good effect against spinners

Want to see him more against pacers with little bit of more pace and conducive conditions,good prospect in hands
