KAR vs J&K Ranji Trophy Final LIVE Score: Mayank Agarwal stood tall with a gritty unbeaten 130 as Karnataka reached 220/5 at stumps, still trailing Jammu and Kashmir in a demanding contest. The visitors endured a testing day, losing key wickets at regular intervals. KL Rahul fell early for 13 off 39 balls, dismissed by Auqib Nabi, who triggered a mini-collapse by also removing Karun Nair and Smaran Ravichandran for ducks. After Lunch, Sunil Kumar struck to send back Devdutt Padikkal for a brisk 11 off 10 deliveries....Read More

Earlier, Jammu and Kashmir’s imposing first-innings effort ended at 584. Prasidh Krishna provided the breakthrough by dismissing Abid Mushtaq for 28, while Vijaykumar Vyshak accounted for Sahil Lotra after his patient 72, wrapping up the innings.

After play was called off due to bad light on Day 2, J&K posted 527/6 in 156 overs at Stumps. Since Day 1, the first-time finalists have eased past Karnataka bowlers. Karnataka seamers Vidyadhar Patil, Vyshak and Prasidh Krishna did stage a comeback on Day 2, finding good movement. They were accurate and eventually got both set batters, Shubham Pundir (121) and Abdul Samad (61). But J&K skipper Paras Dogra and Kanhaiya Wadhawan responded well and formed a steady partnership. They took a cautious approach, treating every delivery on its merit, and taking the match away from Karnataka with a 110-run stand. Dogra was eventually dismissed by Shreyas Gopal, departing for 70 off 166 balls, laced with eight fours. Meanwhile, wicketkeeper-batter Wadhawan smacked 70 off 109 deliveries, including nine fours.

On Day 2, poor light stopped play with little more than an hour to go, and then rain also played a role. The rain did stop, but the conditions didn't improve. Day 2 also saw some controversy as Dogra had an altercation with substitute fielder Aneesh, where the J&K skipper headbutted him due to sledging.

KAR vs J&K Ranji Trophy Final LIVE Score: Speaking ahead of the first session, J&K skipper Dogra said, "It felt good to score 70, if we win, it will feel even better. We will try to score as many as possible. To be honest, I want to live my life every day. Day by day, the skill and fitness levels are increasing and I try to match that and by God's grace, it's working out for me. I have worked on my technique and I have been able to apply that to my game. It was a bit disappointing, Shubham Khajuria has been a very senior player, his presence in the side would have been good but we have confidence in our players and we back them. I felt angry for a second but then I was fine. I always try to give my hundred percent. I feel the surface can keep a bit low and there can be some turn as well, we have some good spinners too so let's see what happens."
