Mumbai, Mar 12: Karnataka made it two in a row as they thrashed Tamil Nadu by an innings and 217 runs to win the Ranji Trophy here today at Wankhede Stadium. Overall, this was Karnataka's 8th title.
The R Vinay Kumar-led completed victory on the fifth and final day on Thursday after bowling out the opposition for 411 in the second innings. Prasanth Parameswaran did not bat.
The victory was a foregone conclusion yesterday when Karnataka had posted a mammoth 762 following a triple hundred by Karun Nair and a ton by Vinay. At close of play on day 4, Tamil Nadu were 113/3.
"It is a big moment for us. I want to thank all the players. They have worked hard to achieve this milestone. I am very happy with my own performance," said Vinay, who became only the second Karnataka captain after the legendary spinner EAS Prasanna to win 2 Ranji Trophies. Last year, under Vinay's leadership, Karnataka had Maharashtra in the final in Hyderabad.
"We have a special . As I said last year, if we keep performing we will dominate Indian domestic circuit," he added.
Legspinner Shreyas Gopal took 4/126 while S Aravind and Vinay had two victims each to lead the team to a thumping victory.
Vijay Shanker (103) and Dinesh Karthik (120) struck centuries but could not prevent the inevitable. It was a too big a deficit (628 runs) to be wiped out after being bowled out for just 134 on the opening day.
