Defending champions Mumbai bounced back in style with a dominant nine-wicket victory over Maharashtra in their second Group A match of the Ranji Trophy 2024 on Monday. After a disappointing loss to Baroda in their opening game, Mumbai put their campaign back on track with this comprehensive win.

Chasing a modest target of 74, Mumbai resumed the final day at 13 for no loss. Despite Ayush Mhatre’s early dismissal for 15, Prithvi Shaw (39* off 36 balls) and Hardik Tamore (21* off 26 balls) steered the team to victory in just 13.3 overs, securing six crucial points.

In another Group A match, Baroda continued their strong form with a 65-run win over Services, further solidifying their position in the tournament.
