Angkrish Raghuvanshi and Musheer Khan each scored 114 and 109 to power Mumbai to 290 for three on Day One of the Ranji Trophy clash at the MCA‑BKC ground, where their 208‑run opening stand dominated play. The pair’s centuries erased doubts over their red‑ball form, with Raghuvanshi recalling earlier self‑doubts after struggling in his debut season. Mumbai’s batting held the upper hand after Haryana opted to bowl first, while Raghuvanshi also reached out to former KKR coach Abhishek Nayar for mental clarity. The victory sets Mumbai on a strong footing ahead of the remaining days of the match.
Why it matters
The dominant opening partnership gives Mumbai a solid lead in the Ranji Trophy and reinstates confidence in both players for future domestic and IPL selections. Angkrish’s return to form may influence KKR’s squad planning, while Musheer’s century showcases his potential as a top‑order staple for the team. Both players now have a platform to push for national team consideration.
