Vidarbha Clinch Irani Cup

Vidarbha won the Irani Cup in Nagpur, beating Rest of India by 93 runs after bowling RoI out for 267 while defending a target of 361. Atharva Taide's marathon 143 anchored Vidarbha's batting; Yash Dhull top-scored for Rest of India with 92 and Rajat Patidar provided further resistance. Left-arm spinner Harsh Dubey and pacer Yash Thakur were the chief wicket-takers, each finishing with six wickets in the match, while Anshul Kamboj earlier produced a 4/34 spell. Captain Akshay Wadkar led key lower-order resistance that helped set the target Vidarbha defended. Play was disrupted by rain on Day 4, and the match featured a heated on-field exchange between Thakur and Dhull that may draw sanctions. The win continues Vidarbha's recent Irani Cup dominance, marking their third triumph in recent appearances.
