The Ranji Trophy 2025 Elite Group A fixture between Jharkhand and Nagaland will begin on November 1 at the JSCA International Stadium Complex in Ranchi. The match is scheduled to start at 9:00 am.
Jharkhand head into the contest with strong momentum and had earlier humbled former champions Tamil Nadu by an innings and 114 runs in their previous match in Coimbatore. Young off-spinner Rishav Raj, making his first-class debut, starred with four wickets on the final day to seal the emphatic win.
Nagaland, meanwhile, earned a memorable draw against Tamil Nadu in their previous match in the tournament, showing resilience and determination against a much stronger side. The upcoming clash promises to be an interesting battle between Jharkhand’s in-form bowling unit and Nagaland’s improving batting lineup.
